Here it is fresh off the technet mailing list. I really hope this is on the up and up. Would love to have this kit!

Hello everybody!
Many of Yours know the Russian kit Laura 3. It was discontinued by the original manufacturers some time ago... I have contacted the autors of this kit and currently relocating manufacturing of this kit in Europe. If all business regarding things will go well, we can start producing bodys in this winter. Doe�s anybody be interested in bying this kit, so we need to decide about the variations of kit, and potential client wishes? Best regards, Yuris Vecvanags [This message has been edited by HIOSILVER!

Update Hello! Currently we arn�t decided the price for the kit, cause rearangement is in progress. It will depend on desingers profit yhey want to earn from each sold kit, but we hope to keep the price for kit ( including complete interior) Of around 3500$, if not less. Parts would be hand laid fiberglass and colored gelcoat finishing. The website containing all information will be up ass soon we sign the contract and have the molds delivered! Payment will be available by credit card and maybe other payment also will be available. Also we are thinking of shipping insurance and other things.

I wonder if we can buy only the interiors. Even though the Piranha kicks the stuffing out of the Fino and those original kits. As for the price, that is just amazing. I would definitely buy a fiero just for that and put a killer V-8 in there. [This message has been edited by Phantom-Fiero (edited 09-24-2002).]

Another update for those interested. Ok! I will you inform You as soon any activities will start. Yes. there will be the possibility to bye the interior separately. Regarding interior there is a bit of problem, as door skins are not horizontal as on fiero, but little straight upwards to the rear side. So they would not fit!. We are thinking of little redesigning in door panels so thet will fit stock locations of Fiero door. Have a nice day! Yuris

That's gotta hurt! Where's "@vid.gov.lv" from anyway? People have been wanting the Pyranna at least as bad as they've been wanting to see the 90 prototype! I hope this works out.

Its very cool looking(cool way to reuse the stock guage cluster).... but you think kicking the dash on the way out is annoying now? Look at how far that sticks out from the pillar!

Anyone got more pics of the tail-lights, they look awesome from the pic above. I don't know about that big "Spoiler" though. That is an awesome price for a kit though. I'd like to hear some comments from anyone who's bought the kit before I went and got one. Seems too good to be true, what kinda quality is the kit? I like to see more pics, especially of the interior.

I think an interior with stock Fiero door skins would cause some conflict. The lines of the door definitely look curved. - dosed

That's probably the most beautiful kit I have ever seen on a Fiero. I love the interior as well. Can't wait for more pics.

Regards Yuris Vecvanags This is like ancient history revisited. I saw the prototype Pyranha at Carlisle two or three years ago and it looked very nice. Personally I don't like the huge high airplane wing or the rear tail light arrangement but at $3500 I believe that they will sell very well.
There's lot's of competition (Finale, ZR2, Lambos, etc.) but if you outprice them and have a quality product you should sell a few of these. ------------------

Call me skeptical, but the Pyranha (Laura) kit surfaces every few months or so, and no one outside of Russia ever seems to be able to buy one. Maybe it's different this time and someone in Europe really is going to manufacture them and sell them in the western hemisphere. Who knows? It they really are for sale they will sell quite a few of them. The interior alone would be worth a few bills. I'm sure I'd get one.

That wasn't that far out of russia. From what I remember that car show was in France was it not? I remember it being in Europe/Asia none the less. And the makes just refused to **** overseas, not outside of the borders of Russia from what I understand. If I am wrong, please correct me, but as far as I remember, that is right.

It IS the Carlisle Fairgrounds.. And, the guy who owns it is named Dave.
I am seeking more pics. Used to have access to build pics and final shots of the finished car. So, I need to do some hunting.. His site has been down for some time. Will post photos when I find em.

France is near enough for me  The kit looks kickass but I don't like the rear "TV-antenna" and the small underspoiler in front.. a bit too much for a Fiero IMHO. [This message has been edited by Morninglight (edited 09-25-2002).]

How are they going to be able to sell the whole package so cheap? I've seen other kits go for around $5K, and that's just the exterior. Something must've gotten mixed up. But if they are that cheap, I'm going to have to start saving. I love it! ------------------

Guess I was wrong, I just remember something like that comming out a long time ago when that red pyrahna picture surfaced. Most of had it confused with a different pic. Sorry guys for the wrong information.
