Pontiac's Potent Mid Engine Sports Car |
"The Pontiac Fiero is a mid-engined sports car that was built by the Pontiac division of
General Motors from 1984 to 1988. Today, the car has a cult following making it a prime example of a cult car--some enthusiasts
referring to it as, "The most underrated car in history."
Originally envisioned by John DeLorean (inspired by his Pontiac Banshee prototype), the Fiero -- meaning "proud"
in Italian -- was finally designed by Hulki Aldikacti as a Pontiac sports car. The Fiero was the first two-seater Pontiac since the
1926 to 1938 coupes, and also the first mass-produced mid-engine sports car by a U.S. manufacturer. Additionally, many technologies
incorporated in the Fiero design were radical for its time. Alternative names considered for the car were Sprint, P3000, Pegasus,
Fiamma, Sunfire, and Firebird XP. The Fiero 2M4 (2-seat, Mid-engine, 4-cylinder) was on Car and Driver magazine's Ten Best list
for 1984. The 1984 Fiero was the Official Pace Car of the Indianapolis 500 for 1984, beating out the new 1984 Corvette for the honor."
