I am not sure if I am going to sell it, but I might be selling my Yellow 88GT V6 5spd. Car. Some old pics of the car are here. http://captfiero.com/captsnewride - http://captfiero.com/captsnewride I have a ton of parts for the car and it would be put back to factory stock.
If it had perfect paint and perfect interior. I would be asking $6500 but it does not. I figure it would take $2500 for paint and interior to be PERFECT. John and I put new main / rod bearings in the motor. So the oil pressure is great, I put new slotted vented cross drilled front rotors on it. All full Poly Bushings and new Moog Ball Joints in it. Comes with a large box of spare 88 Suspension parts. (worth over $1000 in spare suspension parts) I trust the car to run me back and forth to Oregon round trip roughly 1000kms. She currently has about 215,000kms on the car. I love it, but having 2 Fiero's and a Motorcycle to myself is just getting to be too much. If you are interested send me an email to capt@captfiero.com if you don't get a response in 24hrs, please pm me here, as my spam filter blocks some real emails. Car is currently located in Surrey BC and has valid emissions / tags and insurance as she is my daily driver. As for performance, she will do 180kph with a trailer on the back and be stable as a rock. (PS, Trailer hitch will be removed before buyer takes the car, unless otherwise negotiated) Price is Firm, as I have already done the negotiating from $6500 down to 4000 for all the cars imperfections. I will warn any buyer, this is an 88GT, the Best of the Best for Fiero's, but with that, comes the added expense of 88GT suspension parts, hard to find trim and interior parts, and other misc bits that you practically have to make yourself. Only other side notes, the rear tires, although have good tread depth, there is some minor tread separation that caused me concern for anyone that plans to drive over 160kph for any extended period of time. Oh Car is Keyless Entry, Alarm, OEM Sub woofer, Inflatable drivers seat boslter's, (compressor died, but I have a spare) A/C line has a hole in it, so it quit, but blew ICE cold even in Death Valley heat of 52C one year. The car does need taking care of. Minor things like mounts, a hose/pipe here and there, however nothing that will keep you from driving it daily and having a ball with it. Uhm, Cold Fire up, is perfect every time, however sometimes Hot Fire Up, takes a bit of cranking. She will always fire up, but has an odd fuel smell. So an injector might be leaking, I am not sure. I can supply a spare set of injectors with the car. What can I say, she is a rather rare, Yellow 88GT V6 5spd. Considered the TOP tier for Fiero collectors. Its been a great car, but I have never been one for Status symbol cars. To me it was just a really fun car to drive. Now its time to move on. ------------- Capt Fiero 88 Fiero GT 5spd V6 Eight Fifty Seven GT V8 5spd. |

| You said trim parts are hard to come by. Does the 88 take different trim parts then other models when it comes to exterior/interior? |
