Its not a firebird. Its a Fiero converted with a ferrari bodykit. Ugly car. And the american v8 sound does not match well with an exotic style car.

FIERO, note the differences from the firebird, easy to tell.





and with the ferrari bodykit,

Re: were did rear engine car go?

the fact that he brought up a firebird looking like a ferrari made me instantly think fiero.
