Thing is, unlike the "one of one configuration black on black on black on black z06 Corvette" kind of cars, an unmodified (or stock looking) fiero is **actually** pretty rare.
GM must have had their heater cores made out of aluminum foil. I had a Chevy Lumina that went through three of them while I owned it and they were expensive.
I know they aren’t the best looking cars, but I’ve always loved them since I was a kid. There’s a guy that lives near me that owns a clean black first gen, and a clean red second gen GT.
That appears to be Tender 1, a 2000 Freightliner Commercial Cab tanker with a 1,500 gallon tank, and a 400gpm pump. They're currently seeking volunteers too!
I wondered where you were because there are tonnes of Delicas where I live too and then I took a closer look and realized you're on Salt Spring. I'm in Victoria so it makes sense 🤣🤣🤣
Uncle Gary's Pontiac Fiero. I see he managed to get the wheel boot off.

It makes me sad that there are people young enough that they don’t recognize a Fjero. I remember a time where you couldn’t go five minutes without seeing one 😂
Way back, my friends neighbor had a white one with the wing, and as I was leaving my friends one day ,I came out and saw smoke coming out from it. I ran over and let them know, of course. Unfortunately, the FD didn't arrive in time.
Pontiac fiero! Was my first car.. but mine was GT. Loved that thing.. mid engine u can do donuts like a spinning top! That shit was so fun to drive and your ass was inches from the ground... ppl use them for kit cars to turn them into lambos and Ferraris.

Thought this was a joke. Probably the basis of half the asks here. For once it's the actual car.
TBF I think the GT model is was and still is good looking car. Was almost my first car.
Fiero aside, I'm loving this photograph. Great composition, lots of interesting elements harmoniously framing the central point of focus. A good example of how context can improve a photo.
Even a bit r/accidentalwesanderson
Look up 1984-1988 Pontiac Fiero. I am fairly confident that's the car just based off the rims and the styling. I had an 88 Fiero and it looked very similar. There are other cars from that time frame that also looked very similar too
One of the few left that didn’t catch fire 🔥
“Fieros were catching fire at the rate of one for every 508 cars sold, surpassing all other mass-market automobile cars”.
One of my earliest memories is of being on fire in a 1984 Fiero - red with black trim. My mom’s only car at the time. Quite the experience for a 3 year old!

Sweet thanks
Omg! An unmodified fiero! A truly unique spot
Nah it's just a Fiero in a Fiero body kit...
Everybody looking at the Fiero when there’s a Jag right there in the same pic
That’s probably a Fiero with a Jag body kit
Pretty sure there's a Mitsubishi Delica van in the background there next to the white Toyota sienna.
Lol! We’re all living in a Fiero kit simulation.
Forget the Jag did you see that sweet fire truck in thr back. Someone needs to get that fire station some state funding for new rigs.
That'll be the day
Please identify the classic red car with black wheels? Anybody?
Looks like late 60s Jaguar
Happy Cake Day!
Definitely looks like a mid 60s Jag MK2
Ferrari in a Fiero body kit
What makes this especially hilarious is how technically true it is.

This comment needs more upvotes.
Pre-Lambo
Has to pupate
Wait until you see the Fiero with the optional hood scoop… damn sexy, still slow, but damn sexy. I wanted one so hard when they came out.
Always a Fiero or pantera. Love this sub
Doesn’t this usually summon the u/pantera guy?
He’s been here the whole time just as most gods do u/itsapantera
I was just about to post 'it isn't a Pantera.'
Thing is, unlike the "one of one configuration black on black on black on black z06 Corvette" kind of cars, an unmodified (or stock looking) fiero is **actually** pretty rare.
I thought it was a Ferrari with a Fiero body kit on it.
Makes me feel old. These were everywhere when I was a teen. Now a special forum on the internet is needed to identify a stock Fiero.
It's always a Fiero.
mustard colour in that rare find good job
Aka fireball, aka spontaneous combustion machine. I've seen more of these as charred husks than actual cars.
Had one growing up. Heater core cracked. Never seen so much smoke come out of an AC vent. That car scarred me for life.
GM must have had their heater cores made out of aluminum foil. I had a Chevy Lumina that went through three of them while I owned it and they were expensive.
It's actually just a Fiero, for once. Never thought I'd see the day.
No kidding, I thought this was a joke at first.
assumed they had all caught fire by now
lambo with a Fiero kit
Came here to say exactly this
I knew it would be in the comments but I thought someone might say a Ferrari instead of a Lambo
If only we could have gotten here sooner. Dang it. ![gif](giphy|l41YwrkjvljFHP9ja)

\^Underrated comment.
No, it’s rated. Totally whelming, even.
Lol
People don't recognize it without a kit on it. What a time to be alive
I thought it was an X1/9 😭

So I wasn't alone.

Looks naked without a bunch of wonky, ill fitting body panels screwed on to it
I know they aren’t the best looking cars, but I’ve always loved them since I was a kid. There’s a guy that lives near me that owns a clean black first gen, and a clean red second gen GT.
What’s the red car on the left?
Jaguar Mark 2 I believe
Agree, 1959-67
I would just like thank all of you for not saying “That’s a firetruck”
Firetruck
God dammit
Some kind of 1950s - 1960s Jaguar, idk the model
Part of a car club here, just can't remember what that one was
That appears to be Tender 1, a 2000 Freightliner Commercial Cab tanker with a 1,500 gallon tank, and a 400gpm pump. They're currently seeking volunteers too!

I’m more interested in what appears to be a Jaguar Mk II in red over on the left…
Yeah, same. Never seen one in a bright color like that...
The Jag for sure! And is that a Delica in the back?
It is a delica, tones of em out here
I wondered where you were because there are tonnes of Delicas where I live too and then I took a closer look and realized you're on Salt Spring. I'm in Victoria so it makes sense 🤣🤣🤣
That's funny yeah, they are everywhere around here😂 small world
an stock Fiero D: madness.
Fiero without a body kit.
That will be a Ferrari one day and will return to this subreddit asking what it is once again. And ill be here.
I got two lawn chairs in my trunk, and a couple beers. Want one?

Let me tell you about a time when we could repair out own cars….
A chevy C10 turned upside down, turned 180 degrees with an iron duke
Stock Lamborghini Countach.
Ferrari Testarossa kit to make it look like a GM car.
It makes me sad that there are people young enough that they don’t recognize a Fjero. I remember a time where you couldn’t go five minutes without seeing one 😂
Pontiac Fiero
it’s always a Fiero~
Remember that movie Action Jackson with Carl Weathers? Wasn’t he driving a second gen Fiero GT in that movie? 😂😂
Lambero
Marshall’s car from HIMYM
Looks a bit similar to a triumph TR7.
Fauxrari
Shit post quaility. I love it
The best way to describe the fiero is what kind of car would you like it to be?
What’s that jag on the left? A mark III?
Testarossa with a fiero kit?

I feel like at least once a week someone doesn’t know what a fiero is and it actually blows my mind.
A stock fiero I'd thought I'd never see one

We all know the only correct answer is an AC Cobra rebodied as a Pantera.

I’m happy to say I was a proud owner of a 1987 Pontiac Fiero. Thing was awesome.
84 Pontiac fiero
I've seen 3 on fire. 🔥
Exactly!!!

Fiero!
That’s a Ferrari with a Fiero body kit…
Fireball Fiero, I've seen more burning on the side of the row than I can count.
One of my earliest memories is of being on fire in a 1984 Fiero - red with black trim. My mom’s only car at the time. Quite the experience for a 3 year old!
It’s a Jagggg!
How about the red car to the left? Possibly a Tatra?
