Sooo.. Roval 2.0? I like it.

I agree. I mean I fell in love with the Fiero. Nothing more needs said :)

I just want to point out you are on Jalopnik, where the title of the website has its base name from the word Jalopy. Defined as “an old car in a dilapidated condition.” If you are looking for high dollar cars and articles I would not start in a place named Jalopnik.

A leased car never makes it out of warranty. Also it seems you were lucky since I think it was Car & Driver that couldnt even finish their testing on the car due to it being always in for warranty. Or things broke and you just never bother to take it in for those issues since it was a lease....

bad idea considering the poors may hit the BMW in question and we all know they dont have enough insurance. BMW is taking a major risk here.

The Fiero is the perfect definition of 80s American cars. And none of your other vehicles come close to embodiment of a great idea hamstrung by corporate meddling. 

If you want something to just look at since it will not run longer than the end of the street, then yes buy the Lotus. Even if it did run... 160 HP.... I mean you still get the knock off Italian styling though, but from England instead of USA knock off.

See I am not even specifically talking about the LSx however the LS responds very well to FI as well so with your 6 to 8 pounds of boost on that engine still does the same thing as your 4s and 6s and then they can’t touch the easy reliable power delivery from that engine line. Personally I have no dislike of any

You can not dismiss packaging. FI also is not the be all end all solution. It further complicates a complex system adding cost, space restrictions, failure points, and stresses to a motor. There is a reason that car companies did not offer FI as a mainline option until emission standards “forced” them to.. << See what

Plug-in Hydrogen Hybrid. I don’t see why this isnt a thing now. Smaller batteries to save weight, Hydrogen fuel cells to run the already electric motors so no 2 motor system like ICE. If this were an option you would see the Hydrogen network start to expand. From Forbes last week “Hydrogen could become a $130B US

Justin had it almost right. 3500 is too much for the 85 iron duke. Talk them down to 2000 and take that remaining 8000 and swap in a LS4 from a Grand Prix and a F40 transmission.Radwood style and LS performance. Rock that mullet back in style. Nothing hotter than an LS and a Kentucky Mudflap.

I personally like the "slipper" car. There are far too little cars left to choose from and 2 doors are even harder to come by unless you want a pony car. I don't see how this is a "meh" car. They are nicely appointed comfortable cars. Artistic styling was captured from your average pair of house slippers. It is....

Both teams were decimated by injury. The Colts were so thin in the secondary that they had to line up linebackers as corners. Both starting safeties were out and Lenard, last year's defensive player of the year. So Maholmes should have been able to crush that secondary. This is the NFL injuries happen. 

I too had an 89 and this checks out. Also I must say styling the 3rd Gen was the best. That is why the 5th Gen mimicked it.

My 88 Fiero just isn’t ready to make the trip. Just picked it up a couple months ago runs well... for now just doesn’t stop well. Or cool properly. Looks like it will have to be next year.

I feel like this is an entire article complaining about 325 horsepower... Like that number is awful. No it is not 600hp. And most people that buy Cadillac are not looking for 600hp. That is what the Corvette and Camaro are for. I don’t think the average person should have that much power. Most can not handle the 325.

I am ashamed of this jalop community. Trash talking one of the most unique American cars ever produced. Is it rare? Check. Does it have have a manual? Check.  Was it a misunderstood car? Check. Did it have an interesting history? Check. Can you take it to Radwood? Check. The only think this car is missing is it is not

I agree with all you said. It is a rare only 250 made near mint condition low milage example of a classic collector car. Especially with the recent release of only the 2nd ever mid engine American car. Even if it is wearing an Italian skin. For those that say because you wouldn't buy are missing your point that it

The 3.4 is the Gen 3 version of the 2.8 and is a very common swap. I think most common is the 3800SC from Grand Prix or Bonnie
