Dude...your MR2 pride makes me so proud that we are members of the same community.
No offense, but you come across in many of the same ways as the group of folks you're stereotyping...with just a different preference in brands of 20-year-old autos. At the end of the day, you still street-raced a Fiero and then bragged about it on the net. ![]() |

I have to admit this hate for the fiero is partly fueled by an incident involving my first car, no i didn't own one of those horrable beasts, one hit my cherry 1972 dodge dart, had a 340 and everything. that little ****ing fiero totaled that car and he was a dumb *** unisured driver. i lost my first ride to a damn fiero, and this recent event has reminded me of just how much i hate them.

Gotta love that "space frame" design of the Fiero (read: backwards Chevelle) if it was enough to total a Dart.

I dont understand how his supercharged mr2 with a smaller engine, and a worse at topend supercharger running less boost, can run more whp than my 3sgte with a ct26,apexi n1 exhaust, 3"dpipe, and apexi intake @ 15psi.
I find your hp claim hard to beleive too. It probably feels like 230whp in a heavier car like mine, but your probably more down around 180rwhp, it just doesnt addup. |

You had a doge dart. Those things were monsters. I had a 67 mustang not as fast as the doge dart. What color was it?. Dont let some stupid fiero imature owners difine who you are. I agree about the car being ugly. I would never own one but they can be made to be pertty fast if done right. Like the Mr2 if you built it right it's a tough car to mess with. All in all the Mr2's are a suprior looking car than the fiero but tha's not to say that all fiero's are crap. Also how in the hell did a fiero totalled a a 72 doge dart those thing were made of pure metal. He must have been going pertty fast, becasue he totaled your Doge dart, I can just imagine what that fiero looked like Any ways here is a picture of the Mustang I just sold last year. ![]() ![]() |

*Sigh* I'm gonna have to agree with Turbonatormr2. Some of those Fiero guys have some interesting tricks up their sleeves. I work with guy who is as much of a Fiero nut as I am an MR2 nut. We used to argue all day long over whos car is better, and my claim that the Fiero sucked, but all it took was a ride in his Fiero Formula to change my mind. Torque, and horsepower oh my! And while I agree that their Getrag 5 speed sucks, and that the early years were definately crap, the 88 really isn't that bad of a car when it comes down to it. Yes, the 4 cyl is slow and unresponsive, but the V6, and beyond really make the car what it was meant to be. Also, I want to both see the video of the event, and a dyno chart of your car. Unless you're twincharging through an SC-12, it is highly unlikely that you are making over 200hp to the rears, even with cams, and I'll believe it when I see it.

lol @ you thinking Toyota originated the midengined design.
"mr" is so GT-4... wonder if they'd have copied a totally innovational "MF" design he he he he Quote:

I think the late model GT's with the body kits look pretty cool and I really like how you sit so low in them. But there is no question that I consider the Fiero an enemy of MR2's. Come on, there are so many similarities it's only natural. I was a track once when I has my 88 SC and there was an 88 GT there. He had a couple things done, I had a couple things done, we checked each other out a bit and hit the track. I took great pride in blue flagging his *** a couple times
BTW kick *** story, the buying gas for your buddies is hilarious! |

I have a motorweek video from the 80s comparing the MR2 and Fiero, it's pretty funny. Obvious how biased they were toward the Feiro and equally obvious how much better quality / performance the MR2 was.

Sounds like you got those *******s good. Congrats.
But maybe you should keep the flames down until you learn a thing or two. First of all the Fiero had nothing to do with the MR2. The fact that the Fiero was released a year before the MR2 should make that pretty obvious. Just because two things look similar doesnt mean they have anything else in common. Second of all there are Fieros running all around that weigh less than a stock MR2 and have 3-4 times the horsepower. Add a high quality suspension to that and watch it smoke your "230rwhp" SC12 MR2. Im not saying MR2s aren't great. I wouldn't be here if I didn't think they were. MR2s of all generation are some of my favorite cars of all time. But just because you found some dumbasses driving Fieros doesn't give you the right to start talking smack about ALL Fiero owners. Finally, you are so absolutely 100% full of 5h17 about your car having 230rwhp. As far as I know the best tuners in the world haven't broken 200rwhp on an SC12. |

Don't worry, you're not the only one that has this reaction to his posts. It's normal.
