This is a time capsule of a dream that was realized for a brief moment. Pontiac fans know that 1988 was the best and final year for the Fiero, and the Formula model with the V6 and sport suspension was the one and only time the original coupe lived up to its full potential. That's why this one is the right mix of classic style and a super-slick respray of the red paint. It makes for a rare and interesting car that's also offered for an affordable price.
The Fiero was born in a bit of confusion. Pontiac built an interesting mid-engine economy car, but the public saw the awesome angular styling and thought it was a true European sports rival. It wouldn't be until 1988, the final production year, that the original coupe body lived up to its performance impression. Pontiac made sure the public knew the new Formula model packed the sporty car they were always looking for by adding more aggressive features like the rear spoiler, Formula decals, and crosslace wheels borrowed from the GT version. It all looks fantastic today because the low odometer is believed to reflect the full actual mileage (averaging under 1,300 miles annually.) The less use means the body remains in crisp angular style. And the investment in a professional respray of the bold factory Bright Red means it all radiates in the sunshine.
Open the door and feel a full time warp back to 1988 in this near-perfect interior. Unlike the mid-engine European cars, the Fiero's layout does not sacrifice interior space. This is thanks to a very upright design that gives you a very airy feeling. But it does still give you the sporty style where all the controls are aligned with spirited driving in mind. The cloth seats are exceptionally comfortable, and the good care means you still feel the terrific bolstering. The same care can be seen on the other interior elements that coordinate in a full sea of tasteful gray, like the center console, carpets, door panels, and dash. This Fiero was built with plenty of comfort features such as power windows, a tilt wheel, cruise control, and the original AM/FM/cassette stereo. Plus, the factory air conditioning is now blowing cold with modern R134a refrigerant.
The fuel-injected 2.8-liter V6 was the key upgrade in this car. It delivers the extra power for entertaining performance in the relatively lightweight Fiero. It certainly looks the part of a performance engine with a bright red intake manifold and matching valve covers. In a car this original, it shouldn't surprise you that this is believed to be the original powerplant. It hasn't been modified from factory specs, and instead, there has just been an investment in good fundamentals like the distributor, plugs, wires, and other servicing within the last couple of years. The desirable mid-engine layout works with the fully independent suspension and four-wheel power disc brakes to deliver a nimble driving experience that lives up to this car's European look and name.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and maintenance records. This is the well-preserved and well-presented one-year classic. So something this unique and desirable won't stay around long when it's also this affordable. Call today!!!

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
Fees
: A documentation fee of 9 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
Availability
: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
Contact
: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
Inspection
: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
Payment
: We require a non-refundable 0 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers.
Shipping
: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
Drive it Home
: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility. Documents & Vehicle Titles: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN Verification
: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
Mileage
: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
Condition
: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS
: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!

Information is provided to the best of our knowledge and we make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, truth, or reliability of such information. We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent. All vehicles are sold AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied.
