The Fiero was originally planned to have it's own proprietary suspension system, but it got scrapped for the parts bin stuff.  I wonder if that was what was eventually to become the 88 suspension.  I also found this interesting bit in the second link.

Another one from Hagerty:

Basically says Fieros will not gain more value.  I disagree since non-specialty C4 Corvettes, 1984-1995?96?, are just now starting to gain value.

I was at a junkyard today.  Not one single Fiero.

There were a bunch of hyundai sedans with "biohazard blood" written on the window.  Not sure what those people were doing.

I've only recently started following Hagerty, yet there have been 2-3 Fiero articles in the last month.

Seems odd to have that many reports for a vehicle whose value is predicted to be static.

Ummm... bleeding?

I'm guessing they were injured in the accidents that damaged the cars. ANY blood - in any amount - is considered a biohazard.
