That one of the strangest dashboards I've ever seen. Strange but interesting.

I like!

Awesome looking car!

You need to tint the windows though so people can't see that dashboard! hehe

Nice car. Have thought about getting one of those myself, in the past. Look great outside, but those dashboards do look a bit of a nightmare.

Nice car - that dashboard though looks like it has been lifted straight out of a lorry!

Never really paid much attention to the Fiero, but I'll echo all the other comments, that is one very nice looking car! Got agree with the dash, who on earth designed it?

I hope you get loads of enjoyment out of it!

By the way, looked at your profile and I love that Alfa! I see in your piccies it's got no plates on, is it off the road at the moment?

The Alfas are spot on!

That dash is amazing, reminds me of those late 70's/80's Cadillacs. It does have a certain angled charm about it!

You'll have to post some more piccies with the new wheels fitted too.

Think we better stop with the dashboard comments before someone gets hurt hehe

Those wheels look quite good on it btw. Not too big or bling.

Prefered the previous wheels, would have looked better if it had be lowered a little. New ones look a little bit bling, but the are not too bad.
