The Pontiac Fiero is an interesting curio of the Eighties because it was a two-seat mid-engined car by Pontiac meant to have economical rather than sporty aspirations. That didn't stop the aftermarket community from seeing its potential, and many Ferrari and Lamborghini tributes or replicas sit on humble Fiero underpinnings. That's why finding this 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT is somewhat notable, as it's got only 30,000 reportedly original miles on it. Read on to find out why you should buy it and preserve it as-is. Yes, you can also have fun driving it, as the 1988 model year brought some significant changes under the skin that uplifted the driving experience.
Sporting a black paint job and rolling on black alloy wheels with a silver stripe, this 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT looks sharp and a little bit sinister. The badging on the rear tells us it's the GT model, as do the quad tailpipes. Looking further, you'll see a spoiler on the rear deck lid and the front sports pop-up headlamps, another glorious Eighties feature. Goodyear Eagle H/P tires adorn the aforementioned 15-inch rims, and the presence of side marker lamps in pristine order is another desirable feature. Open a frameless door to access the gray interior, and it's more Eighties goodness. Gaze upon the instrument cluster, and another GT-specific feature is the 120mph speedometer. Conveniences include power windows, mirrors, and door locks. There's air conditioning and a radio cassette head unit with a five-band equalizer. Turn your head upwards, and there's a sunroof with a removable panel for more airiness. The panel safety stows in the front trunk or trunk, so you don't need to leave it at home.
The Fiero was available with a 4-cylinder or V6 engine, and this 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT enjoys the V6 behind the passenger cabin. It's a 2.8-liter L44 V6 that develops 140hp and 170lb-ft, sent to the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission. However, the 1988 model year brought about a new suspension design with much-improved handling characteristics, and the GT model received a special WS6 suspension set-up. Braking received a boost as well, with new two-piece calipers and upgraded rotors.
Pontiac has always been a somewhat performance-oriented brand, even in dark times like the Malaise Era. Their Firebird muscle/pony car was severely strangled due to this dark time, but Pontiac cheerfully changed direction. Of course they kept the Firebird, but introduced something else too. This was the Fiero, made between 1984 and 1988. Unlike most other Pontiacs, the Fiero was a compact two-door sports car with a mid-mounted engine, composite body panels and an economical outlook. In subsequent times, Fieros found an unlikely purpose as the base of many faux Ferrari transformations. Thankfully, stock examples do remain, like this West Palm Beach-located 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT. It’s up for sale with under 69,000 miles on the clock, a 2.8-liter V6 in the rear, and an automatic gearbox. Contact us if you’d like to make it your own.
Pontiac’s mid-engined two-seat Fiero has gained quite a reputation for its kit-car capabilities. Yes, many lookalikes of famous Italian sports and supercars have been based on the humble Fiero. That makes finding a stock Fiero just that little bit more difficult. Not for us at Exotic Car Trader, though. We’re experts in finding the hard-to-find. That’s why we have this 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT for sale today, from Illinois. With over 68,000 miles, this iconic Eighties American car is ready for a new owner and let us tell you, it looks in great shape.
The Pontiac Fiero is perhaps best known for its use as a platform to build replicas of Italian supercars from the Eighties. But this mid-engined two-seater from Pontiac was a rapid departure from the brand’s standard fare when it launched in 1984. Made until 1988, the Fiero was meant to be an economical car with modest performance capabilities, targeted at the sensible everyman who wanted driving pleasure and frugality wrapped up in a stylish package. Over 370,000 Fieros were made, although finding a relatively original condition example is somewhat tougher these days. However, we’ve got a nice 1987 Pontiac Fiero GT for sale today, with just over 30,000 miles on the clock. This Florida-based car has reportedly undergone a partial restoration and is completely stock, we’re told.
If you ever go down the memory lane of the most popular Muscle cars ever built, you might find that the Pontiac GTO is often considered the first true muscle car. Fun fact, GTO stands for “Gran Turismo Omologato”, Italian for homologated for racing. This abbreviation is directly borrowed from the Ferrari 250 GTO. What we have here is a 1969 Pontiac GTO, which belongs to the second generation of its legendary lineup. Nowadays, this model is highly sought after by classic car collectors. This stunning example carries 25976 miles on its odometer and is currently located in North Las Vegas, Nevada. If you are looking to turn heads with pure classic car power, this is the perfect car for you.
The 2006 Pontiac GTO marked the final chapter of the modern GTO revival, and by this point it had evolved into a true performance sedan in coupe form. Powered by the 6.0L LS2 V8, the 2006 model delivered stronger output and sharper refinement than its predecessor, making it the most desirable year of the fourth-generation GTO. Finished in Spice Red Metallic over a black leather interior, this example shows just 29,792 miles and presents as a well-kept, enthusiast-owned car. With its understated styling hiding serious V8 performance, this GTO perfectly captures the “modern muscle” formula — comfortable enough for daily driving, yet more than capable of putting power down when asked.
Pontiac’s fine GTO is a testament towards fighting a corporate injustice. When GM banned their auto divisions from competing in racing due to some irrational reason, the petrolheads inside the brands were livid. Three gentlemen, namely John Z. DeLorean, Bill Collins and Russ Gee didn’t fight, though. Instead, they came up with a cunning plan. They’d create a model that was basically a thinly-veiled racer, disguised as a production car. Then, they’d sell it to customers who knew what to do with it. Hence, the GTO was born in 1964, with a name inspired by Ferrari’s legendary 250 GTO, a Tempest-based platform, and of course, big V8 power. Today, we have a nice first-generation 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible Restomod for sale from Wichita Falls, Texas. The current owner says that it’s a great car and enjoyable to drive. It’s also been taken to over thirty car shows in a mere three years!
When it was introduced in 2003, the Cadillac XLR was quite ahead of its time. Sitting on a Corvette C5-based platform, it packed Cadillac’s smooth Northstar V8 up front, a luxurious two-seat passenger cabin in the middle, and a surprisingly decent trunk behind. Yes, the XLR was a luxury grand tourer, basically. It was meant to be Cadillac’s flagship at the time. However, only 15,460 units were made, signaling that perhaps, Americans underestimated this lovely home-grown grand tourer. Now, they’re realizing what they missed, and the savvy enthusiast will quickly snap up this 9,990-mile 2006 Cadillac XLR from Placentia, California. This car comes with chrome wheels, a black leather interior, a black powered convertible hard top, and much more to enjoy.
The 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe continues the C8’s mid-engine revolution, delivering exotic-level performance at a fraction of the price of its European rivals. Finished in Black over Jet Black and equipped with the desirable Performance Exhaust and Carbon Flash accents, this example balances stealth styling with aggressive presence. With 46,136 miles on the odometer, it has been driven and enjoyed as intended while retaining the sharp looks and everyday usability that make the C8 such a compelling platform. The 1LT trim focuses on pure driving performance, pairing the naturally aspirated LT2 V8 with a lightning-fast dual-clutch transmission in a chassis that redefined the Corvette formula.
In 2005, Chevrolet revealed the all-new C6 or sixth generation Corvette. It did away with pop-up headlamps due to tightening safety regulations, but improved upon the C5 in nearly every other way. Whether it be power, performance or luxury features, the C6 represented a healthy upgrade over the C5. That’s why even today, C6 Corvettes like this 2007 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe are considered to be a great way to sample America’s greatest home-grown sports car marque. This particular car has just 14,732 miles on the clock and comes from Colorado. It’s got the 3LT Preferred Equipment Group, the Magnetic Selective Ride Control adaptive suspension system and a lovely 6.0-liter naturally aspirated V8 under the hood.
