“We Drive Excitement” April 2018 April www.gafiero.org “We Drive Excitement” SPECIAL EDITION Mike Swayne’s red 1986 Fiero SE, newly purchased from his brother. From this picture, it looks as if Mike is overjoyed with his new purchase. He looks a little bit possessive of it. That is one nice—albeit imperfect—Fiero! Obviously, Mike plans to enjoy his Fiero, and with a car that looks like this, who could blame him? You can read about Mike and his Fiero in the Member Spotlight section of this newsletter. This image epitomizes Fiero ownership.

Hope you enjoyed these. © Copyright 2018, Georgia Fiero Club 4 Appreciating Fieros by Paul Ackerman (pgackerman) Fiero owners have been known to complain about the lack of appreciation their clas- sic car receives: not the interest generated at car shows, but the type collected in bank accounts. Are Fieros abused in the collector car market? Would you be better off owning anoth- er model? Let’s find out. According to NADA, the MSRP of a 1984 base Fiero was $7679. This same Fiero, depending on how well it was maintained, is now worth $5674, $3273, or $1445 depending on if it is in High, Average, or Low retail condition. This works out to retaining 74%, 43%, or 19% of the original sale value. The news gets better if, according to Hagerty, this ‘84 is Concours quality. Then the value rises to $7900, or 103% of the original MSRP. What’s the moral? Keep your Fiero in top condition!

  • “We Drive Excitement”
    October 2018 October www.gafiero.org “We Drive Excitement” Of Pumpkin Eaters Gather ‘round the fire, and I’ll tell you a tale of a squash and a squire; a man who drank ale. His name was Peter and you may think him a liar, but he was strong and stout and didn’t have a tail. On a dark, weary night, in a field of dirt gloom, he’d finished his harvest right, when up rose a moon. Gold-red and bright it approached like his doom, when granting him sight the sun came far too soon. Across the field, came a Pegasus at ‘im; he did not yield, but just jumped right in, his ownership sealed, and the deal might be a sin, that the harvest moon dealed; but he stayed within. The sun faded away; gloom returned to the night. The beast fought to get away, and roared with all its might, nothing to belay its wild rush frock with fright. A sign by the side of the road he did spy, with the number 129, he thought he would try. He set his mouth in a line, and a glint came to his eye, the Tail of the Dragon should be a good time. Exhaust belching black smoke, the beast roared down the road; its fire Peter did stoke, this chal- lenge bestowed. The partnership evoke, hostilities erode. Eyes glowing red, with pumpkin-like fire, the pair kept ahead of the Dragon’s well-known ire. Animosity put to bed, this togetherness desire, done wore out the tread on each of the tires.

  • Pending Questions for the Enthusiasts Guide to the Pontiac Fiero
    Pending Questions For The Enthusiasts Guide To The Pontiac Fiero Please send all responses to these open issues to Jim Hallman at [email protected]. 1. See the image marked Rubber Seal Radiator Gasket. We believe this seal is only used on the radiator late in the 1988 model year. We need to hear from 1988 Fiero owners to confirm if this radiator seal is or is not on your Fiero. Please provide the last six digits of your VIN # when responding. 2. We are looking to add the torque ratings for the various 3-speed automatic, 4-speed manual, and 5- speed manual transmission options available in the Fiero. Do you have this data available to share? 3. From our research it appears that the automatic transmission shifter boots are mounted to the center console in one of two different ways. Either they have an elastic band or with a plastic brace. We are looking for two things: 1. We need high-resolution images of each of these different mounting techniques. 2. Please provide your Fiero’s model year and body style and indicate which mounting style you have – elastic band or plastic brace so we can verify when the different techniques were utilized. 4. We are looking to add a listing of weights for the various stock Fiero wheels for all model years. We need the weights for the wheels only (not with the tires mounted on them) for the following wheel styles (you can find images of these wheels in the Image Gallery in your Enthusiasts Guide): 13” Steel Rally Wheel offered both with and without the trim ring 14” HI-Tech Turbo aluminum wheel 13” Turbo Finned aluminum wheel 15” Gray Diamond Spoke aluminum wheel (’86 – 87 GT) 15” Black (or Gold) Diamond Spoke aluminum wheel – Front (’88 GT) 15” Black (or Gold) Diamond Spoke aluminum wheel – Rear (’88 GT) 5.

As part of its mission to reduce fatalities and injuries, since model year 2001 NHTSA has included rollover information as part of its NCAP ratings. One of the primary means of assessing rollover risk is the static stability factor (SSF), a measurement of a vehicle’s resistance to rollover. The higher the SSF, the lower the rollover risk.

Hoey photographer Dec 17, 2015 Let us pour one out for Pontiac. Think not of the fecklessly managed, watered-down brand that withered away in 2009. Remember instead a time when Pontiac became the nation's third best-selling automotive brand, a leader in innovation, style, and performance. Remember instead the Pontiac Fiero, the company's most ambitious and subversive car, which illustrates both what Pontiac stood for and where it all went wrong. Pontiac had long pined for a two-seat sports car, only to be rejected by GM management on the grounds that such a car would compete too closely with the Corvette.

  • When Transformation Fails: Twelve Case Studies in the American Automobile Industry
    Journal of Enterprise Transformation, 5:71–112, 2015 Copyright C IIE, INCOSE ISSN: 1948-8289 print / 1948-8297 online DOI: 10.1080/19488289.2015.1019654 WHEN TRANSFORMATION FAILS: TWELVE CASE STUDIES IN THE AMERICAN AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY Chen Liu,1 William B. Rouse,2 and Zhongyuan Yu1 1School of Systems and Enterprises, Stevens Institute of Technology, Babbio Center, Hoboken, NJ, USA 2Center for Complex Systems and Enterprises, Stevens Institute, Babbio Center, Hoboken, NJ, USA 2 The demise of 12 American automobile brands over the past century is discussed. Companies can respond to various difficulties by making decisions on their automobile offerings. These decisions are central to relationships between companies and consumers. These decisions included broadening their offerings to address a larger portion of the automobile market, narrowing their offerings to address the company’s financial situation, focusing on current offerings to keep them successful, or switching to other offerings to achieve greater profits. A case-based approach is used to explore the detailed nature of this range of attempts to change. Due to a variety of factors characterized in terms of four levels of explanation, these brands failed. Consequently, these companies’ attempts to transform via offering-related decisions failed. These failures reflect, to a great extent, inabilities to balance the tension between differentiated offerings and economies of scale or market demands. Keywords enterprise transformation; automobile industry; production costs; brand differentiation; globalization; case studies 1. INTRODUCTION Downloaded by [William Rouse] at 05:47 14 June 2015 Fundamental transformation of a large enterprise is very difficult. Recent data on the Fortune 500 reported in The Economist supports this assertion (Schumpeter, 2009).
