The newest issue of Kitcar Builder has an article about the Pirahna and it' s designer, Alex Koulygine. Apparently he couldn't get backers for the Pirahna so the project faded away. But, he is back with a slightly revised design called the Plazma. He is looking for backers/interest in the project. He can be contacted at romeroslimb@aol.com I hope no one minds me publishing this Anyway, here is the photo's from the article. All credit goes to the magazine and photographer Joe Greaves.

Maybe that interior might be available.

Personally I think this design is awesome.

I saw this car at Daytona and let me tell you, ...pictures cannot do this car justice. It was constantly surrounded at the show, and with good reason !

It was everything you could imagine and more.

simply a dream.

If the Fiero had lived on, I could definitely see the Plazma as a 3'rd generation Fiero. It maintains the original look, but is very modern and strong.

The plazma is really nice. The guy at Daytona claimed it was a one off...although it's obviously based on the Pyranha of which several copies exist.

Chances are a lot of people will express interest in the Plazma, but few will actually cough up the $10,000 to $15,000 the kit would probably cost.

It looks like my wheel choice and combo inspired somebody. I would have gladly traded him my set for a copy of the interior.

I like it. It is one of the few rebodys that I would consider doing if I had more than 1 Fiero.

Now back to the interior. Are you going to offer that as a seperate kit? If so... When and how much?

PS - Don't worry about the upper door skin edge not following the stock line. We can do something about that. Btw, VERY nice work!

I would be more than happy to buy a re-body that looks like that. I was planning on saving all the money I make for the next 10-12 months to get the Finalle kit and an engine swap. However if this comes available I will change my plans and buy it! An engine swap could wait another year if I could get my hands on this body.

Make it and I'll get in line to purchase one.

Edit: Would it be possible to get some bigger pics of this car?

As I've said before, this is the best looking kit Fiero on the planet. (The Finale being beaten by a "nose"). About every six months there is a rumor the builder is going to produce it, but nothing ever gets heard again. It is a very nice car, though, and I would even consider putting that rebody on my own Fiero or buying a donor and spending the money for a V-8.

Thanks for the update!

Totally off topic - if ArchBishops are better than bishops, and Archangels are higher than angels, why doesn't Archie call his creations "ArchFieros?"

(Edited - as usual - for spelling.)

I would be most interested to hear the Piranha/Laura/Plazma story. That one sounds like one of the classics.

To post pics click on the "PIP" icon at the bottom of each page. It doesn't get any easier.

And bump simply means that whenever someone posts to a topic it "bumps" it up to the top. So often people will make a post with a single word, (bump)

That is AWESOME.

100% honesty goes into this next statement: I didn't quite like the Pirahna through-and-through, but Plazma I DO like 100%. If I had the cash to rebody my Fiero (and I do want to rebody it eventually), I'd go with this. It looks awesome. Coupled with a higher output engine, this thing would just... man... jaw dropped to the floor. NICE. Don't let it go away!

the answer is I spent an hour or so of my life erasing the other cars and people and tent out of this picture so we could have a nice poster shot of your car.
