Fiero Enzo Fiero

When General Motors launched the Pontiac Fiero, with its mid-engined architecture and easily replaceable plastic body panels, it had know know that some enterprising homebrew artists would quickly adapt Ferrari-esque coachwork to their new sports car.

What they couldn’t have imagined when the car went on sale toward the end of 1983 is the mighty Enzo Ferrari, a car almost two decades in the future. Not as pretty as the 288GTO or as ’90s outré as the F50, the LaFerrari’s dad remains a hugely impressive machine, even if it’s not as aesthetically glorious as many vehicles of the Maranello concern’s past.

But when the unimaginable meets the probable, you get something like this: a V-6–powered 1986 Fiero with Enzo-reminiscent bodywork. While the Fiero made for a decent-ish 308 and an okay Lamborghini Countach, the Pontiac’s compact dimensions simply don’t square with the Enzo’s length, resulting in a compressed-accordion effect. We’re also big fans of the prominent “V12” badging, because wishful thinking has a curious way of doubling one’s cylinder count.

On the bright side, the seller’s only asking $6K for this one-of-a-kind Fienzo. It is, however, a bit of a ran-when-parked situation. According to the Craigslist ad, it “needs a tune up after sitting for eight years.” As a bonus, you can tune up a whole Fiero for the price of an Enzo’s lugnut. Buy it now and have it ready for Pebble Beach!
