Cliff notes: 12-year-old girl saves up babysitting money and buys a Fiero to restore it herself in time for her 16th birthday.

If it were an MR2, it would have been heartwarming. Is it is, it is just an epic fail.

(I'M KIDDING! I love the Fiero, not trying to flame, just bustin chops.

Awesome. I like to see some hope for the future and not every teen pissing and moaning about getting a new black Vette when they wanted daddy to get them a yellow one. (It happend twice at my high school)

My daughter is currently in training. She watches Formula 1, ALMS, has a small collection of Hot Wheels and the cityscape mat carpet to drive them on, makes engine noises when she runs around... and she isnt 3 yet!

Cheerleaders and prom queens aren't gonna have anything on that girl

I can only hope that if I end up having a daughter, she turns out that way.

Who was the girl in Grassroots a while back with the first gen Camaro she built herself. I seem to remember something about she had a tatoo of the gearshift patern on the palm of her hand...

And she's a writer/editor? of a muscle car mag now?
