I have the silver yat ming 85gt myself.  I actually won it at a club prize draw that Kris Duck set up a few years ago.  There are several glue together models out there.  I know there use to be a site that had all the models listed.  I will see if I can find it and post it here.

Yes I have my 88GT but to me, the image of a Fiero will always be a Notchback.  The first Fiero's were notchbacks the 84 Indy Fiero that started the craze was a notchback, the first GT was a notchback, regardless of the fact that public opinion has always been slanted towards the fastback being the nicer car, for me, I really like a nice notchy.
