AWESOME, NEAR FLAWLESS 1988 PONTIAC FIERO GT, 5-SPEED, WITH JUST 29,200 MILES....FUTURE COLLECTIBLE, NICELY EQUIPPED AND WELL DOCUMENTED!!!
Regardless of whether you are an avid Fiero enthusiast, owned a Fiero back in the day, or knew someone who owned one, it is hard to argue that the 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT is going to be one of the iconic Pontiac Collectible cars as years go by. Among other things, the Fiero was the first 2 seater Pontiac since the 1938 coupes. We all know Pontiac “used” to build excitement and there are sure to be many exciting years to come for owners of low mileage, top quality Fiero GT’s. This is now the 10th '88 Fiero GT we have owned and it is truly in amazing condition and has under 29,200 pampered, original miles!! This White, mid-engine, pocket rocket had just 3 owners and lived its entire life in Missouri where it was originally sold at Lou Fusz Motor Company. The gentleman we acquired it from was a true car enthusiast who had a great collection of cars but he realized the time had come to let this awesome Fiero go so that he could get his wife's daily driver back in the garage for the winter. He owned this car for 10 years and he knew both of the previous owners who lived locally. He was a true Fiero Enthusiast and over his 10 years of ownership took this White beauty to many Fiero Shows where it won its share of first place awards. Well, he had his fun and decided he was ready to pass it along to the next lucky owner....maybe you?? There is quite a strong following for Fieros now and you will find many Fiero Clubs all over the country. It is not unusual to see a few Fieros at your local car shows and cruise-ins and this one would fit in anywhere and will probably bring home a few trophies if that is what you enjoy. At the same time, you can jump in this mid-engine sports car and drive the heck out of it while knowing you have one of the future collectibles that surely be going up in value. This Fiero is really in amazing original condition with extremely low miles and a nice group of options. I will do my best to provide enough large images, a video of it start up and running, and an honest description so you can decide if this is the one you have been waiting for. Sit back and enjoy! Hard to believe that this Pontiac Sports Car is 25 years old! Obviously pampered and extremely maintained, the body on this White '88 Fiero GT is really in amazing condition and extremely original with no accidents!! The original vin # stickers are still in place on all of the body panels and the original white paint looks great. As you walk around this Fiero you will be hard pressed to find any rock chips or flaws. Several years ago, the previous owner was bothered by a few rock chips that had accumulated on the ground effects panels below the doors so he had those painted, but otherwise he was quite positive this car still has its original paint. He enjoyed taking this car to the shows and always kept a great coat of high end wax on it and never drove the car in the winter. He is quite positive the previous owners also never took this Fiero out on the roads in the winter so it never saw salt roads and one look underneath the car confirms this. This Fiero was equipped with the factory rear spoiler and sunroof that is removable and has a sunshade that is still in its original case. The wing windows that often times will "check" over time look fantastic and all of the glass looks excellent. The pop up front headlights work flawlessly and were rebuilt by the previous owner. This car has already proven itself by winning first place in several Fiero shows and I am sure the next owner will be extremely pleased by the condition of the body. Here is a walk around photo tour of the body: Complimenting the beautiful white exterior is an awesome Light Camel colored Leather interior. When you slide inside this ultra low mileage Fiero you will truly feel like you are back on the showroom floor in 1988. The car even still has a new car smell inside. The light camel leather seats are in awesome condition with just one minor wear mark on the drivers side seat bolster. It is just a slight discoloration and could easily be dyed if desired. Otherwise I did not see any other signs of wear anywhere inside this sweet little Fiero. The dash looks perfect, center console looks new, steering wheel shows no wear, original floor mats are like new and covered by a very nice set of matching custom Fiero Mats. All of the gauges in the dash appear to be working correctly. The previous owner decided to upgrade the stereo with a factory deluxe stereo unit which you would never know was changed as it fits perfectly. Headliner looks awesome without any of the sagging that is common. Power windows work great and the Air conditioning blows ice cold. As you will see in the pics below the interior looks close to new and is ready for the shows. Have a look:
The Fiero's mid engine layout was chosen as a way to reduce aerodynamic drag and vehicle weight to improve fuel efficiency, and also for its handling, traction and braking benefits. The 1988 model is considered the most desired for many reasons. Numerous changes were made to the '88 Fiero. The most significant was a completely redesigned suspension to realize the full potential of the mid-engine layout. The new suspension included new two-piece brake calipers and upgraded brake rotors. The GT model included the 2.8L V6 motor with 43hp more then the 4 cylinder, upgraded suspension and wider tires. Topping off the package were the new vented disc brakes on all four corners. With just under 29,200 original miles this particular Fiero GT has really just been broken in and truly drives like a new one would have in 1988. The Gertrag manual 5-speed transmission adds to the fun of driving this sports car and it handles like a go kart. Previous owners were all car enthusiasts who maintained this Fiero extremely well. The previous owner just replaced the Eagle GT II tires about 1000 miles ago. Due to the car not being driven that often one of the injectors was clogged so he had all of the fuel injectors rebuilt and put in new spark plugs. He also had the heater core replaced during his ownership. No oil leaks!!! This Fiero truly runs and drives like new and is an absolute blast to drive and handles like it is on rails. The awesome looking factory Gold wheels look brand new with no curb rash. Original dual exhaust sounds awesome. As you will see the engine compartment looks brand new and the front trunk area also looks showroom new and you will see the sunshade stored in its original case. Undercarriage looks amazing and it is obvious this car never saw the winter salted roads as their is no sign of corrosion. We also have great original documentation including the original window sticker, original manuals, and service records. This car retailed for over $16,000 brand new! Take a look at the engine bay and then watch the video so you can hear this car start up and running.

BMX rider flips for wrecked Detroit football stadium
Fri, Jun 12 2015Detroit is littered with derelict ruins. Abandoned automotive assembly plants, sure – but also former sports venues, like Tiger Stadium in Corktown, Roesink Stadium in Hamtramck, and the Silverdome in Pontiac. BMX rider Tyler Fernengel remembers going to see the Lions and Pistons play at the Silverdome in his youth, and competed there in Supercross as a boy. The stadium hasn't been used in years, but now, with his career just picking up, Tyler has returned to film this video – riding through its halls, jumping its stairwells and flipping over its grandstands and field. It's a fitting tribute to a once-great venue of suburban Michigan. Check out the footage in this latest clip from Red Bull.

GM isn't liable for punitive damages in ignition switch cases
Wed, Nov 20 2019NEW YORK — A federal appeals court said General Motors is not liable for punitive damages over accidents that occurred after its 2009 bankruptcy and involved vehicles it produced earlier, including vehicles with faulty ignition switches. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said on Tuesday that the automaker did not agree to contractually assume liability for punitive damages as part of its federally-backed Chapter 11 reorganization. GM filed for bankruptcy in June 2009, and its best assets were transferred to a new Detroit-based company with the same name. The other assets and many liabilities stayed with "Old GM," which is also known as Motors Liquidation Co. Tuesday's 3-0 decision may help GM reduce its ultimate exposure in nationwide litigation over defective ignition switches in several Chevrolet, Pontiac and Saturn models. It is also a defeat for drivers involved in post-bankruptcy accidents, including those who collided with older GM vehicles driven by others, as well as their law firms. The ignition switch defect could cause engine stalls and keep airbags from deploying, and has been linked to 124 deaths. A lawyer for the drivers and their law firms did not immediately respond to requests for comment. GM had no comment. Circuit Judge Dennis Jacobs said GM's agreement to acquire assets "free and clear" of most liabilities excused it from punitive damages claims for Old GM's conduct. He also noted that the judge who oversaw the bankruptcy concluded that the new company could not be liable for claims that the "deeply insolvent" Old GM would never have paid. The decision upheld a May 2018 ruling by U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman in Manhattan, who oversees the ignition switch litigation. Drivers have sought a variety of damages in that litigation, including for declining resale values. GM has recalled more than 2.6 million vehicles since 2014 over ignition switch problems. It has also paid more than $2.6 billion in related penalties and settlements, including $900 million to settle a U.S. Department of Justice criminal case. The case is In re: Motors Liquidation Co, 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 18-1940. Government/Legal Chevrolet Pontiac Saturn Safety gm ignition switch
Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later
Fri, 12 Sep 2014
Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
