Also, the ‘hot model’ wasn’t anything in production. Pontiac had some prototypes, one a turbo and also a 3.4 DOHC (I think, I’ve been out of the Fiero world for a while) and those were the ones that were potentially faster than the ‘vette.

It’s a shame there’s no extended cab version. Still, I like it.
Forklift is the only EV I’ve driven. A little slow and not a very great ride, but damn handy when you need them.
Modern GM is usually let down by the cost-cutters, especially in the 80-90 era. I like the Fiero more for the innovation of it’s design and manufacture. It was a good car by ‘88, just in time for them to axe it. I had an ‘88 coupe with a Quad 4 swapped into it. That did make it a great little car.
The Beretta allowed the Olds Cutlass Calais Quad 442 W41 to exist.
Last 50 years? Buick Grand National, GMC Syclone / Typhoon, C4 up to current Corvette, Cobalt SS, new GTO, G8, Solstice / Sky, 6th gen Camaro..
Well, the question isn’t about all types of vehicles. It’s about which manufacturer has the most great vehicles out of the cars *they* make. Lotus knows what they’re good at, and stuck to it. We’ll see how the EV stuff pans out.
Lotus was the first one to come to mind. The Espirit V8 was the first car I ever really lusted after..
The front steering wheel fell off!
More diesel clatter. I know it’s just a little baby Duramax but GM went to such an effort to make it quiet. Just give me some turbo noises...
GM really does a good job on the HUDs. My Cramro had one and it was awesome. Wish my Colorado had the same.
I didn’t *hate* the last CTR, but I wouldn’t want to be seen driving one.
With his big fuel prices switchboard, obviously!
Diesel prices seem nutty here in MN.. 30-40 cent swing in pricing within a few miles.
Already made it:
Best thing I’ve done is used the vehicle as it’s intended - take the off road capable stuff on the dirt, and the track package car on the track.
It’s crazy how good those SC3 tires are, in the right weather. Below 50* and rain.. watch out.
Finally got my ZR2 diesel, and averaging right around 25mpg without trying. That’s city / rush hour / highway. Highest 50 mile average I’ve seen so far is 29.9mpg. The A/T tires and poor aero of the ZR2 front end don’t help, the stock Z71 guys can pretty easily pull 30+mpg.
That’d be mine. I don’t think I would say it quite meets those criteria. Hell, it’s roughly the same size as a Silverado from 20 years ago.
All of them that weren’t utilitarian / daily driver beater type vehicles.
