- 1988 Model Year Pontiac Fiero
- Automatic
- Original Miles
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.
Exterior and Interior
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.
Engine
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.
The Pontiac Fiero remains one of the most unique American sports cars of the 1980s, combining exotic-inspired styling with a lightweight mid-engine layout that set it apart from virtually everything else on the road. By 1988, Pontiac had refined the Fiero into its best and most desirable form, with improved suspension geometry and enhanced handling characteristics. This 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT shows 69,337 miles and presents in an eye-catching red exterior over a gray cloth interior. Equipped with the GT package’s distinctive fastback bodywork and benefiting from numerous maintenance-related upgrades, including fuel system components, ignition components, and exhaust improvements, this Fiero represents an excellent opportunity to own one of Pontiac’s most memorable performance cars from the final year of production.
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.
