1985 Fiero GT, Now With Burning Hot V6!
Of all the forehead-slapping what-might-have-been heartbreakers perpetrated by The General over the years, the Fiero really stands out. Undermined by the bean-counters' insistence on the Iron Duke engine and Chevette-based suspension, the Fiero that was grunted out of the factory in '84 bore little resemblance to the Ferrari-esque vision of its designers. For the '85 model year, however, a (somewhat flammable) 140-horse V6 was available, boosting performance from "sluggish" all the way up to "not so bad." Fly, Fiero, fly! Fry, bean counters, fry!
