Yeah once you get used to looking at the chop tops they look normal and the stock ones look way too fat.

I added the small shot of the original above because you can't tell the cars have been chopped until you compare what it used to look like.

I'm glad they aren't all chop-tops. I don't care much for the look of a chop top and they'd be a pain to get in and out of.

I did that photoshop! Thanks for the props! The choptop is real, and all other mods to it were photoshop. I did it because a bunch of people didn't like the drastic chop on the base coupe, and I felt it had a lot of potential...

If all Fiero's were chop tops from the factory then no one would no any different.

If all Fiero's were made into chop tops then Archie would have to hire some more helpers

If all Fieros were chop tops, I'd still be modding my Luminas, cuz I think chopped Fieros look terrible.


Just my opinion tho, if you like it, more power to you. Maybe they look better in person. But at 6'5", I may not fit. But the one good thing chop top Fieros do for me, they increase the entire aftermarket of the car. No one wants a 17 second show car. Therefor they mod it, and the aftermarket gets bigger and bigger. And the poeple that do chop tops are the people we want owning Fieros, they have the money, time, and itnerest to modify the cars, therefor more and more businesses get into it.

Wow that car REALLY needs another exhaust pipe...And the spoiler is a bit too big

It looks too much like a wannabe Ferrari to me. Its nice no doubt, and I can respect the amazing amounts of work that went into it, it just aint my cup of tea.

I really like the stock GTs. I love the look. All they need to look awesome IMO is to be lowered an inch or 2, and to have some scoops added in front of the wheels.

The car does have two exhaust pipes,..this is an old picture. Long story,..something to do with the DMV in Cali.

As for the wing,..to each his own. I love it !

Mine is going to look exactly like it,..5" wing stands, and extended wing tips. Hey if everybody liked the same thing we would all be eating the same food everyday !

I'll take my steak, ..you can have the veggies hehehehe.

Hey Jscott can u chop this car for me ???

Thanks

I'm sorry to say that even though i love the look of cars like mad curls, and some of the other chop top's, i really don't like the chop top's too much. personally, i think that from the direct side angle the chop makes the front end look too long, and i already think it looks to long stock.

just so you know, if all fiero's were choptops, they truely wouldnt be choptops, it would mean they came from the factory with a short roofline, wouldnt make any one fiero's roof anymore special than another (except for the obvious t-tops or sunroof, or hardtop)

just so you know.
