July 18th, 1983 was the start of production of Fieros available to the public and it is hard to believe that 40 years since that day is fast approaching. While this event is still in the planning stages, in addition to the Friday track day at the M1 Concourse it is slated to include numerous events including a visit and scavenger hunt with the Pontiac Transport Museum, a track day, and feature show. Other events will also occur at our host hotel, the Centerpoint Marriott.
This celebration will bring home the last Pontiacs made in Pontiac, MI, including the very last car ever produced there - a 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT that sold at auction in October 2020. Other cars that may be on site include PPG Pace Cars, the 2+2 Fiero prototype, and the opportunity to visit with other Fiero prototypes and special cars. 1 of 3 original 1984 Indy Pace Cars is already confirmed, and it is anticipated that the other 2 cars may be on hand, making this even the first time all 3 cars have been together since race day in 1984. MWFC also projects that 400 Fieros will attend this reunion from around the United States, along with guests from around the world . Our Fiero Community is a friendly, diverse group that gets together to enjoy the camaraderie of their fellow Fiero owners and exchange all things Fiero related.
While this collection of cars is quite special, an even more extraordinary part of the event will be the assemblage of people that will come together to celebrate the Fiero, including members of the Pontiac Motorsports Division, Pontiac Design Studio, and Pontiac Engineering, along with other key members of the Fiero team. MWFC is also going to issue a special invitation to all individuals who worked at the Fiero plant to come and celebrate one of the most unique cars General Motors ever produced.
