1985 Pontiac Fiero Se Supercharged 3800 4spd Auto Swap Cd Player New Tires Fun on 2040-cars
Hagerstown, Indiana, United States
|
This fiero was built in 2001. Engine and Transmission were custom swapped in. They are from a 1992 Buick Park Avenue Ultra. Its a supercharged 3800 V6 (L67). Transmission is a 4 speed automatic. Very nicely done. The owner of Sinister Performance in Fort Wayne, IN was the one who performed the swap. Also swapped was the brakes which are now Grand Am disc brakes all the way around. Rear calipers were just replaced. Radiator was switched to a GT model to handle the additional cooling required for a larger engine. Wheels are 15" alloys with almost new tires. Kenwood CD player installed and works nice. Check engine light is on. Unsure why. Couldn't get it scanned. Strill runs and drives fine. I've taken it on a few long trips without issue while the check engine light was on. Tune up and oil change was done and it still was on. 1 Coil was also changed. Interior is in great shape considering its a 1985. Not perfect but dash is not cracked up and seats not torn. Paint on the car has fading. hard to see in pictures but obvious once seen in person. Exhaust has a high flow Catalytic convertor and an 82-92 Camaro/firbird muffler. Trunk pan was modified to fit the exhaust. |

Buick picks top 11 highlights from first 11 decades
Sun, 21 Apr 2013Buick has taken the time to highlight some of the company's personal points of pride from the past 110 years. Those include everything from the automaker's very first vehicle, the 1904 Model B, to what Buick claims is the world's first concept car: The 1938 Y Job (above). That one also walked away with the worst name for a design study.
All told, the automaker has sold 43 million vehicles through the end of last year, and those include the lusty 1963 Riviera. That model celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2013, and remains one of the brand's most iconic designs.
Of course, Buick is rightfully proud of its quickest model, too. The 1987 GNX managed a 4.6-second bolt to 60 mph in tests by Car and Driver, and it also took the honor of being one of the automaker's rarest creations at just 547 units. You can check out all 10 in the gallery above.
Buick Riviera Concept debuts in China
Fri, 19 Apr 2013It's nighttime in China, and Buick has just concluded an evening event the day before the first - and only - press day of the Shanghai Motor Show. The star of this evening's party was the Buick Riviera concept vehicle, a plug-in electric hybrid coupe that the automaker says gives a glimpse at its future design direction, not to mention resurrecting some nomenclature from the brand's history that includes a similarly named concept from 2007.
The shape of the Riviera is said to be inspired by water. While the traditional Buick "waterfall" grille is present, the front end gains a more aggressive note thanks to what appear to be vertical air inlets below each headlight.
As for the concept's drivetrain, Buick says it uses General Motors' new dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system, or W-PHEV for short. The keyword there is 'wireless,' as the Riviera can charge its onboard battery packs with a traditional cable or wirelessly via a "sensory recharge panel" underneath the car.
GM recalling 1.5M cars in China for faulty bracket
Fri, 27 Dec 2013General Motors and its Chinese partners have announced their second recall in the People's Republic this year, following a 2,653-unit recall of the Cadillac SRX earlier this year. This latest recall affects nearly 1.5 million cars built between 2006 and 2012. It's not explicitly stated, but as there's no movement from the US NHTSA, we suspect that the cars in question were all Chinese-built rather than imports.
The vast majority of the affected vehicles are Buick Excelles (pictured), with 1.2 million units being recalled over a faulty bracket that's meant to secure the fuel pump. The Excelles in question were built between 2006 and 2012, while an additional 250,000 Chevrolet Sail superminis, built between April 2009 and October 2011, are being recalled for a similar reason.
According to the PRC's Administration for Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, the faulty bracket could crack and potentially cause a fuel leak.
