<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dcarr, post: 2516697, member: 4781&quot;]That you argue with multiple other posters here, calling them &quot;fanboys&quot; and such, is evidence that you DO think anyone with an opinion different than yours is incapable of understanding.</p><p><br /></p><p>Was any Ferrari buyer ever fooled into paying a Ferrari price for one of these Fiero/Firebird re-bodies ?

If I were to take Eisenhower dollars and over-strike them as copper-nickel clad 1971 Draped Bust dollars, that might be closer to your car scenario.

It was a actually a pretty good car and fun to drive. I did not have any problems with it. I would buy another 1988 V6 Fiero if I came across one for the right price. In no way would I call this car a &quot;pig&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>As an aside (skip this if not interested), here is a 100% true story that I experienced yesterday:</p><p><br /></p><p>I was at a large car show in my local area. In conjunction with it, there was also a &quot;classic&quot; car auction. There were some neat cars in the auction, but none that really interested me for what I thought they could be bought for - except one. It was a 1989 Mercedes 560SL with some miles on it. It was the only one in the auction. The front grille on those looks the same as your avatar, of course. I&#039;ve never owned one (or any foreign car other than Jaguar). I inspected it and did a little research on the internet to decide what I might bid. About half way through the auctions I went to the nearby office to register for a bidder&#039;s number. I hadn&#039;t registered earlier because the Mercedes was scheduled to cross the auction block towards the end of the sale. While the auction staff worked on my bidder application, people were talking about an irate customer they had to deal with just before. It seems the staff was bordering on being traumatized by the man who had consigned a car to the auction but demanded to be refunded and have his car withdrawn from the sale because it was allowed to get dusty while outside, and was scheduled towards the end of the event. I received my bidder card and with plenty of time left I went back outside to look at the Mercedes again. But it was gone. I went back to the office and asked about it. Yep, that was the one that the person had taken out of the auction.</p><p><br /></p><p>That wasn&#039;t you was it ?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
