This car is an outstanding example of a low mileage 1988 Fiero GT survivor. There are very few left on the road in this condition. It still turns heads and draws attention when driven because it looks like a brand new car; not a 26 year old sports car. Its mid-engine layout and redesigned Lotus-inspired factory suspension make it the most collectible Fiero model. This one is Barrett-Jackson auction quality. That is reflected in the asking price. Classic car dealers are asking $13,500 to $14,500 for similar models. I sold my last Fiero GT to a classic car dealer who took it in on trade for a Corvette. This Fiero GT does NOT have the 5 speed manual transmission, the optional rear window defogger, the optional sunroof or the aftermarket T-Top option. The car has a clear California title, but has never been registered or smog-tested here in California. It has been stored in a garage the entire time I've owned it. It has 53,371 original miles.
NO
REPORTED ACCIDENTS OR DAMAGE - NO
TITLE ISSUES - NO ODOMETER ROLLBACK ONLY 7,237 STATE DMV-VERIFIED MILES HAVE BEEN REPORTED IN 9 YEARS SINCE 2005 The Good:The previous owner was an older gentleman who traded it in on a Buick minivan because he said it was too hard for him to get in/out of now. The car was resold to me by a Pontiac / Buick / GMC dealer in less than a week and was transported to the Los Angeles area by flatbed. It has the very rare driver-side lumbar seat option, but the only aftermarket option is the tinted windows. It is a very original survivor. * The car has a brand new alternator installed by a GM dealer, a new K&N air filter, newer BF Goodrich tires in the correct factory size, new CA-compliant lockable gas cap, newer Napa battery, newer custom Lloyd cloth floor mats with the Fiero logo, newer upgraded Delco radio with a CD player, and a new light duty indoor GT car cover. The tan car cover is still in the plastic bag and has the ‘eyeholes’ needed for cable tie down. This car has been stored in a garage ever since I’ve owned it and the previous owner told the Pontiac dealer I purchased it from that it had always been stored indoors. * The car has a stunning pure white professional repaint in the original color that is virtually flawless. The paint is extremely shiny and nearly perfect with absolutely no fading or clear coat damage. It is the best quality paint I’ve ever seen on a used Pontiac Fiero GT. * The car has the original 2.8L V6 engine that runs beautifully. The engine has strong performance. The optional 3-speed automatic shifts smoothly and quietly every time. This car drives and handles very well. The buyer will not be disappointed in its performance even though it does not have a V8 engine swap. * The car had tinted driver side, passenger side, and rear window aftermarket glass when I bought it. It also has the original Pontiac “GT” plastic rear sail panels in outstanding condition. There are no cracks, spiderwebs, or fading. It has the original factory tinted LOF windshield in outstanding condition with a dark-tinted band across the top. There are no cracks, large chips, or delaminating on the glass. There are no cracks, spiderwebs, or delaminating on the plastic tail lamp covers either. Note: although hard to see in the photos, these windows have a black exterior appearance that looks stunning with the black aluminum honeycomb wheels. 1. The pop-up headlights work perfectly. They go up and down quickly. I’m sure both headlight motors were replaced by the previous owner. Replacing those motors can cost up to $400 each at a GM dealer. 2. The interior is almost flawless. This is a non-smoking vehicle and smells like new. The car has the light grey interior. The cloth bucket seats look almost new with no cuts, tears, or stains. There is very slight separation of the cloth from under the plastic lumbar controls on the driver’s seat cushion. The cloth headliner is perfect with no cuts, stains, or drooping. It also has the original grey factory-style tweed carpeting in outstanding condition, the original tweed factory floor mats, and two newer custom cloth Lloyd floor mats with the Fiero logo. The original 1988 Pontiac Fiero owner’s manual is included along with a mechanics tool kit. There are two complete sets of GM keys; one is the original. 3. All gages work as they should including the odometer and oil pressure gage. The gas gage has shifted slightly to the right (as usual) but otherwise works fine. All of the power options also work fine, but the power windows are a little slow due to age. The cruise control was working fine when I bought the car. The A/C works fine but needs to be recharged. 4. The car has the Pontiac black aluminum honeycomb wheels that were so popular in the 1980s rather than custom wheels that reduce its value to a collector. All four wheels are in excellent condition with no curb rash on the chrome rims. The tires are as close to factory specs in correct sizes that I could buy.
The Not-So-Good: 1. The car was professionally repainted before I bought it. However, there are a couple of stone chips in the lower front fascia which occurred after it was repainted years ago. There is a one inch long scratch on the driver’s side undercarriage rail below the door that has been fixed with touchup paint The front plastic license plate bracket is missing. 2. The car has Goodrich brand radial tires in great condition that have about 500 miles on them that are as close to factory specs as possible, but they are not brand new. They are several years old and were installed after I bought this car, but there is no tire warranty. 3. The car has the factory installed catalytic converter, but it was not originally a California car. I have never had this car smog tested so I’m not sure it would pass California’s extremely strict smog test requirements, even though it is visually in good condition. 4. I do not have the maintenance records for any of the mechanical work done by previous owners, but I do have all the records since I’ve owned it.

Burt Reynolds’ former 1978 ‘Smokey’ Pontiac Trans Am in big auction by feds
Mon, Oct 21 2019A 1978 Pontiac Trans Am once owned by Burt Reynolds as a memento of the car he drove in the film “Smokey and the Bandit” will be among nearly 150 muscle cars and luxury vehicles seized from the alleged perpetrators of an $800 million investment scheme that will hit the auction block this weekend in California. ItÂ’s said to be the largest single-owner car collection ever auctioned by the U.S. Marshals, seized late last year from Jeff and Paulette Carpoff, the founders of the now-defunct mobile solar generators company DC Solar. Two employees of the San Francisco Bay Area solar energy company, certified public accountant Ronald Roach, 53, and general contractor Joseph Bayliss, 44, both of the Bay Area. pleaded guilty Tuesday to participating in what federal prosecutors say was a massive scheme that defrauded investors of $1 billion. Both men agreed to cooperate in the ongoing investigation. While the Carpoffs, the company's owners, have not been charged, they agreed to let the government auction their collection of 150 classic, performance and luxury vehicles, including the 1978 Pontiac Trans Am once owned by Burt Reynolds. The replica of the car the late actor drove in "Smokey and the Bandit" and the other vehicles are to be auctioned Saturday, with online bidding already pushing the accumulated value past $5.5 million. Bidding on that Trans Am alone had topped $65,000 by late Tuesday. The auction company said it had been driven less than 3,400 miles. It's the largest single-owner car collection ever auctioned by the U.S. Marshals Service. Chief Deputy U.S. Marshal Lasha Boyden of the Sacramento office called it "a stunning collection of vehicles" that also includes 1990s Humvees, 1960s-era Ford Mustangs, Chevrolet Camaros from several decades, plus older cars including a 1939 Buick Roadmaster, a 1951 Chevy Thriftmaster 3100 pickup truck and a 1941 Plymouth Special Delux with wooden doors and trim. “It is rare for the U.S. Marshals to hold an auction of such a stunning collection of vehicles,” Chief Deputy U.S. Marshal Lasha Boyden in Sacramento said in a statement. ReynoldsÂ’ former Trans Am is a hardtop memento of the version he drove in the 1977 action comedy. It bears Bandit Run logos in the rear window and upper windshield and appears to have modified suspension components and bucket seats. It comes with a Florida registration with ReynoldsÂ’ name on it, and an autograph on the glove box that reads, “Be Safe!
Burt Reynolds' vehicles up for auction at Barrett-Jackson
Tue, Sep 25 2018Burt Reynolds' influence on car culture cannot be overstated. Be it "Smokey and the Bandit" or "Cannonball Run," his films inspired a generation of car enthusiasts. He died a few weeks back from cardiac arrest at age 82. This weekend, four vehicles from Reynolds' personal collection — three Pontiacs and a Chevy — will go up for auction at Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas. It seems Reynolds had plans to sell the cars before he passed. He even filmed a short teaser for the auction and planned to attend the event himself. Three of the cars are Pontiac Trans Ams. Two are re-creations of the cars he drove in "Bandit" and the film "Hooper." Both are 1978 models. The third Trans Am is from 1984 and was used to promote Reynolds' USFL team, the Tampa Bay Bandits. The fourth vehicle is a 1978 Chevy R30 pickup truck. It's styled like the truck he drove in "Cannonball Run." None of the vehicles were actually used in the movies. But they were registered in his name, making them far more legitimate than some other movie-inspired clones. It's unclear how many Bandit Trans Ams Reynolds has owned over the years. Another car connected to him sold for $450,000 back in 2014. His death is sure to drive the price of these new cars even higher.
