86 Pontiac Fiero - Toyota Yaris Forums

bkndacn · 08-18-2010, 12:08 AM

While spending a week back in Maryland I revived my Moms OLD Red (faded) 1986 Pontiac Fiero That has been sitting in the yard for the last 2 years (Yeah I know it makes us sound like hillbillies)... I've wanted the chance to drive that thing since I could remember ... and I better be getting it in the rents' wills one day!

so on my way back to the house today I got on 95 and passed a Yaris (I almost waved but then realized I wasnt driving my Yaris) then I got in front of him and was blinded by his headlights just like I would have been if I where in my Yaris and a truck came up behind me... but since that thing is so low to the ground the trucks beams shoot over the top of the car and the Yaris it the perfect hight to blind me!

Just thought I'd share.... figured it was kinda Ironicle (lol)

PS: Is it a bad thing that driving the Fiero excites me sexually?

lmao

not trying to come across as overly critical, but for someone who loves that specific car as much as you do, you'd think you would at least get the model name right....

(only one 'r') that is unless it's your own nickname for it, in-which-case, you didn't let us in on that fact....

anyways, yes it is a problem when a car like that excites you.......

@ Garm: Yeppers Its the truth! I bet you could beat a 747 in a drag race!

@ Kimona: Yep Its still purrin (like a lion) The only problems that I have with it is the water pump isn't gonna last too much longer so I have to keep an eye on the temp.... and there is a draw on the battery from somewhere so if the car sits w/o running for a few days itll need a jump. but other than that it just needs a paint job

It was a great eight year run, but it was time to focus on other things. I'm still selling parts on eBay under micro*image seller ID and customers can still make requests for anything specific.
