  1. I love the car, it looks great, I just really dislike those rims. I do love me some stock rims but I know not everyone does haha

     

    I'd imagine it feels like a rolls next to a fiero though :p

     

    Those are actually factory wheels, there is the more "stock" 17" and then the black ones are the 18" performance set. I may buy some wheel spacers because these wheels sit more "in" on the car, not flush with the wheel wells in the way I like them. Then much later on buy some nice summer set of wheels, headlights, front splitter, roof spoiler, and a few other things I might get for the car. I need to install new door locking actuators as well.

     

    And yes, after the heated seats and leather this car is like a Rolls compared to the Formula. :lol:

  2. Just a little recap for those who know and something that has happened to me early in February of this year, I was rear ended in my 88' Pontiac Fiero Formula on the drive home from work. This is my car after it was hauled to a towing yard the day after the accident.

     

    My insurance considered the car a "total loss", but they did their research and gave me a nice chunk of change for my car, plus I bought the car back to be used as a parts car for my 87' V8 Fiero.

    To replace the "hand me down" Fiero, I decided to move on and get myself a nice base model luxury sports car. (import preferred) Hence the title of this thread.

  3. haha thanks man, I'm hoping it'll stay sealed at least till it has a new owner haha, it's serious fun and you can't argue with the price! by the way what are your plans with the trashed Fiero....it doesn't look like it's worth fixing :(

     

    Parts car for another Fiero I own, but with a V8. :lol:

  4. Congrats on the MR2. I've hung out with A LOT of people with MR2s and even though I own a few Fieros, I'm not going to lie but the MR2 are obviously better. Just get ready for a wet leg when that T-top decides to not seal. ;) :lol:

  5. So is this MR2 Turbo'd or NA? If you got yourself a turbo manual T-top MR2 you have a somewhat uncommon to rare car. Well, depending where you live, I live in the US so I don't see too many MR2 with this combo.

  6. :confused: When did that happen?

     

    About within the past two weeks. I was rear ended in my Red Fiero (sig), Got a new car to replace it, plus bought the car back as a doner parts car for my V8 Fiero.

  7. I hope the young partier who hit me realizes she isn't invincible. I WILL get this car back on the road. I'm overwhelmed with all the support I'm getting for car parts to replace what is damaged.

     

    Soon this will be me:

  8. Sorry, I edited the post. And yes, aside from my left leg being a tiny bit sore from it hitting the door armrest I'm okay. Just really stressed out about this as well as a whole bunch of other things that just for some reason are falling into place the bad way. :/

    Yep... :cry: :(

     

    Got rear ended on my way home for work yesterday. Young blonde in a 2015 Subaru Legacy decided to not pay attention and hit me throwing me over a snow bank into the shrubs going around +40mph. Luckily I had the quick instinct to try to floor it to get to the shoulder side of the road and avoid hitting the car in front of me.

     

    Today I went to the lot where the car is being stored and decided to start it up. She runs and drives under her own power which is a major plus. Just have to wait till Monday on what my insurance company's options are on my vehicle.
