Never realized they changed the Fiero... (Page 1/3) TheDigitalAlchemist OCT 31, 11:16 PM I remember the car being low, but not that it was almost impossible to get in and out of. (what model year did they change that, exactly?!?) oh wait...it's not the car...it's ME... The first Fiero I owned, the guy was selling it because he "had trouble getting in and out of it". Literally shed tears as he (actually his son, he left because he was torn up) handed me the keys. 22 year later, I'M THAT GUY. I bought the latest one for my son, but WOW. 20 years changes a lot. DAMN. well, at least it was really nice driving the car. Patrick OCT 31, 11:58 PM My dad was still able to get in and out of my Fiero at age 95... so I never plan to complain about getting in and out of this car... unless I'm still driving it at age 96. (Wait, that's only 30 years from now!) cvxjet NOV 01, 12:37 AM If someone who looks like they have a sense of humor sees me getting out of Fiero, I tend to state "I don't remember this car being so low when I bought it 37 years ago!" (The years changes every....year) I am now thinking about asking a Low Rider to help me install hydraulics on it..... OldsFiero NOV 01, 05:51 AM It can't be us. The cars are getting old- the springs sag. Sage NOV 01, 07:40 AM It hasn't changed a bit....still a "FICO" car.....Fall In....Crawl Out! HAGO! Damn! Just smashed my monitor trying to get that spider! ) MarkS NOV 01, 08:01 AM Yeah, 65 isn't like 28 when I got my first Fiero or even 36 when the 2nd came along; selling the 3rd at 62, things weren't as easy. That said, my Triumph GT6 was worse even at 20; used to pivot on my left hand getting out, something I was doing at 62 in the Fiero. FICO, that's funny! css9450 NOV 01, 09:46 AM A slightly older female friend has hinted she wants a ride in the Fiero. Knowing her knee issues, I'm not sure she'd be able to get back out of the car! G-Man NOV 01, 11:48 AM I just got my 86 back up and running this past weekend after about 15 years of sitting. I told the wife its not like what I remembered. I've been used to my work truck so getting into/out of it is a bigger chore. I put about 10-15 miles on it and driving is not what I remembered either. The pedals have gotten smaller and seem to be packed closer together. I think someone has been playing around with my car when I wasn't looking. Gary cvxjet NOV 01, 12:01 PM I think we should start a Class-action lawsuit- Nobody warned us about this "Getting older" crap when we were born- I would never have signed the contract if I'd known! I talked to a friend about this idea- and she asked, "Who are you going to sue?" And I told her, "These lawsuits never go to trial...Start the suit and it will be settled out-of-court!" She must think I'm stupid! sspeedstreet NOV 01, 03:38 PM I was at a Coast Run some years ago and saw a "senior" trying to get out of his Viper. He looked up at me sheepishly and said, "You work for 40 years to be able to buy a toy like this and then find out you're too old to get out of it".
