Description
1984 Pontiac Fiero Sport Coupe
"Remember, the stated justification for the Fiero was that it be a relatively high volume, economical commuter car. At that, they have succeeded admirably. Now they can spend a couple of years tuning it with option packages to satisfy the closet racer. The potential is exciting. They have all the pieces in the right places, so someone just has to come along with slightly better pieces. If there are people out there who regret not having bought, (and kept), one of the first 1953 Corvettes, this is a second chance." Road and Track, September 1983.
For consignment, a 1984 Pontiac Fiero with a title verified 57,943 actual miles. An original example of a first year Fiero, the unique mid engine platform and rear wheel drive of the Fiero made it revolutionary and its origins are based on this inaugural model. As one time daily commuters, surviving low mileage examples are on a rising trajectory of collectability.
Exterior
Our plastic bodied car is finished in White, still single stage in 1984, and only one of two colors available early in production, along with red. Of course, this is accented by black features that include midline body molding that encircles the car, side mirrors, flush bumper covers front and rear, a faux air duct on the rear quarter, B-pillar trim, and the smoked tail lights Pontiac was keen on using. This little wedge boasts a raked windshield and a dramatic forward leaning C-pillar which envelopes the rear grille with flying buttress-like structures, housing a perfectly vertical rear window. The 14-inch wheels are quintessentially 80's and wear 215/60R14's with a mid 2021 date code. On the nose, the Fiero badge with hints of Ferrari, Lamborghini, but portraying the bird's eye view of a Pegasus, the Fiero's original name, and designed with a nod to the Trans Am's screaming eagle. Imperfections include some filled holes down low, and some stress cracking in the paint.
Interior
We swing the doors and see the 2 buckets covered in tan cloth, sporty and supportive and equipped with speakers in the headrest. A large wide center console is between the buckets and houses a large storage compartment, the shift lever and window toggles. Taking the square and rectangle design motif to the max, the dash is made up of a series of squares and rectangles on a brushed nickel background with an array of indicator lights and standard gauges. It's here we note a cracked area in the brown plastic surround. Carrying the angular idea to the edges where the A/C and heat vents are also on their own vertical blocks on either side along with a JVC AM/FM/CD player. Clean door panels are two tone light tan plastic over brown carpeted inserts, and that carpet is carried over to the floor, blending the interior tones nicely, while an overhead console with lights attaches to the headliner covered in fleece like material around a sunroof.
Drivetrain
Under the rear panel, we find the 2.5 liter four cylinder powerplant rated at 92 horsepower and fueled by a 1-barrel carburetor. It's clean, driver quality in appearance with spots of surface rust on metal parts. Meanwhile a 4-speed manual is attached and keeps power at the rear with 3.32 gears. Power disc brakes are on board and supplied to each of the four wheels.
Undercarriage
Decidedly driver quality underneath with a decent amount of surface rust and general use patina. There's a drop or two of oil on the pan, but the rest of the underside appears dry. A single exhaust flows through a stock style muffler and out through twin tips, while front and rear suspension are independent.
Drive-Ability
Since we're not entirely unfamiliar with the sports car profile, sitting low in a little car is in our wheelhouse. There's actually a decent amount of interior space in the car and ergonomics, for a car of the 80's, is pretty good. Off we went to our test loop where it performed well with good handling, smooth shifting, and as much pep as we could muster from the four banger, which is plenty for country road cruising and city driving. The reverse lights are not working, but all other functions on this well preserved sports car worked as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
It would be 36 years before Fiero's big brother, the Corvette, would see the light and throw the engine towards the back. The advantage? A better balanced car for improved handling and agility. In that way, the Fiero was revolutionary and the first year model will always be the original. Here's an opportunity to own a nice example in very good condition.
