Saw an early Fierro in the wild last weekend that reminded me of the only time I drove one. I got really excited when they came out and thought they were cool. A cousin in-law was a car dealer at the time and would always bring me the coolest thing he had on the lot to family gatherings for me to drive. One day he tossed me the keys to a nice, almost new early model and I eagerly hopped in for the drive. HUGE dissapointment. I was used to under powered since I was driving a 1.7L 914 at the time but the Fierro felt under powered AND heavy. Worst was that it was physically painful to drive. After only a few miles, my legs started cramping up. Never had a chance to drive a later model to see how much they had improved, but that first impression was not good. I still think they are cool little cars though.
