So i have a '92 corvette that as of recently has been acting up. im tired of this car and need a fiero again. the problem with the car is that it wont fire. i cranks strong and really wants to start and sometimes it does. i just have lost interest in fixing it. i love this car and if no trades i like come up then i have no problem keeping it. please ask me anything about the car i have pics for you or can take pics of anything you request.
body is in A+ condition fairly new tires wrapped around 1999 C5 wagon wheels aside from scratches from being 20yrs old the paint is pretty good the rear bumper is an ACI aftermarket bumper that uses the C5 tail lights.
automatic and has the LT1 motor rated at 300hp 330lbs ft torque car is located in daly city california right next to san francisco
Dear lord, lead me out of temptation, and deliver me from debt.
Part of my wants to do this but I'd never forgive myself for giving up the car I'll be finishing soon. Good luck on selling it, and I LOVE the C5 tail lights on the C4. Vettes don't really depreciate, I'm sure you'll get a nice Fiero for this.

well considering i dont know what will be needed to get the corvette back to 100% reliability i just want a running with very few mechanical problem fiero
idealy gt 5spd sunroof or t tops color doesnt matter and im planning on swapping the rear clip to something like the PPE notched with the GT tail lights so thats why i would prefer a gt
i have driven this car everyday for the past two years and had various things fixed here and there, taken it on a 800 mile round trip and it was fine so it will be great after this problem is fixed

if it matters to anyone i thought about parting it out before and did some body panel research the hood itself is about 1500.00 dollars bumper i bought for 500 and the glass itself is around 400 im not using this as a price guide just saying if the fiero is right for the trade the corvette could be parted out for a lot as a whole and running proper its about 7500-9000 depending on buyer

you might have to friend me to see it i dont know but im uploading another video i just took of the car this one is devil slide driving. slow cuz of traffic infront of me
turn your volume down the sound is really choppy so ears be warned
How many miles on the car? Would you be interested in trading for a F308 rebody on an 86 SE platform. This car has a four speed Muncie, power windows and door locks, sunroof, Pioneer head unit with CD player, sunroof, 6 years of extensive maintenance records, and has placed at a judged Daytona show. This vehicle did pass the Atlanta pollution check the last time it was tested and the drive train is stock (2.8 liter V6).

Sounds like a bad optispark or lead wire to it is split/broken.
the opti is new and all the wires and plugs are new as well its a problem somewhere under the dash once the car is started it runs like a champ its just the starting part. if it was the wires im sure it would miss and not idle well

Ahh okay I've had 3 optispark motors just reminded me of all the issues I had with every one of them heh. If you get it running 100% I'd be interested I'll have to take some pics of my fleet.

Just for the record, an LT1 Corvette makes the perfect stablemate for a couple of Fieros. They're a ton of fun to drive.....I love my 95 Polo.
You shouldn't have any trouble finding someone wanting to trade. Great looking C4
Yea I had a fiero and the vette at the same time for a while and ended up selling the fiero but I miss it soooooo. The vette is great to drive and gets great looks especially the c4s.
hey bro I think I'm going to hold on to my car, my kids helped me build my fiero and kinda tripped out last night when I said something about trading lol so good luck with your trading bro I'm sure someone will trade you a nice fiero for your vette.

So freaking tempting. I have watched this car being posted in the past, and must say that you seem to be right in the ball park. Kind of weird to not see the word "rare" in an add!
87GT? Award winner...
I would be so very tempted if it were not my contract to TLG, and the wonderful Fiero friends that I have made here in the Inland Northwest. Honestly, good luck with a trade. You will find someone.
