Good article- a lot of (Real) facts about both the Fiero and the MR2.
And some really good comments- especially from Hyperv6...

I found the following comment to be totally off the wall!

I post at Hagerty often and they have been posting more stories.
One Gary Wittzenburg posted. I directed yo him it would be great if he could update his book with the whole GM truth about the Fiero now.
I mentioned the Corvette team seeing to the Fiero being shut down. Also clean up the false Lotus tuning and address how Porsche Engineering really did some tuning.
About a month and a half later Car and Driver had a story with Gary and John Schinella telling the Corvette team seeing the Fiero shut down and they mentioned the Porsche involvement.
Everyone always clambered about Hulki but John was there at the start and was there fighting for the Fiero till the bitter end. He inalwayd felt was Mr Fiero. Along with being Mr Trans Am . There would not have been large bird on the TA had he not painted the car black and gold to match Bill Mitchell’s John Player Special Norton motorcycle,
He is the one who broke the 1990 Fiero to us at a Fiero meet against the rules.

In the last few days I've had several people reacting to my car, it was starting to seem a little weird. I wonder if those people read that article. I guess that would explain it.
