Guess who just bought her first car with her own saved money?
Our daughter Shanine is the proud owner of an 84 automatic with a rebuilt engine! Black on tan.

She is thinking of a name for the forum right now.

When we asked her if she didn't want a newer model Fiero with an automatic, her reply was " Gotta keep Lee busy, plus I know he hates 84s" ;D

Good substance car, needs some TLC and a bit of cosmetic work, but all in all quite decent for the low price she paid for it. Asking price was 1800, Shanine got it for 600 after I looked at it and pointed out all the things needing repair/replacement.

3 Fieros in the family now, does that make it a herd or a flock? ;D

First, congratulations, Shanine! 

Since "Fiero" means "proud" in Italian, I believe it should be a "pride" of Fieros... !

Has a totally different translation in Spanish:
Fierce, cruel, bloodthirsty, ferocious.

As I am outnumbered 3 to 1 female to male ratio at our house, I'm not sure I like my odds here!

Gaggle.  But I think it needs to be more than three - so you have to buy a couple more.  ;D

Fortunately, we have three toilets and two baths in the house, or I'd be building an out-house. I'll be putting one in the man-cave in the cellar though, which I'll try to make OFF LIMITS to everyone else!

Congrats, Shanine.  Just remember, drive it like your dad drives, not like your mom drives :D and Don, it doesn't take much effort for a man to make a toilet undesirable to women.

She is now also a member on the forum as "PurpleHaze" and a due paying member in our club.

I gues her forum name is derived from her intentions of having her Fiero painted black with a purple metalic haze in the paint.
Her car, her choice. ;D

That's good.  I thought she might have gotten the idea from your efforts to keep the Man Cave's toilet off limits to women.  ;)

PURPLE HAZE all in my mind...
'cuse me while I shift this gear!

Or something like that!

Jimi would probably just whisper something softly like, "Yeah, man, I really dig it!"

Purple Haze pulling on-to the road,
Drivin's more fun, and I sure know why,
'cuse me while I take this turn! 

Driving the Purple Haze all around town,
Don't know if I'm comin' up or down,
GPS must be broke, and I don't care,
Coz drivin' that Fiero gets me lotsa stares!

LOL!

Too bad Tim isn't candidating as a board member, I'd nominate him to be the club jester!
