I learned to drive stick in a Bertone X1/9. If ever the adage were true, that it's more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow, it's with this 2,028 lbs and 75 hp delight.
I was 18 years old in 1988 and making great money for a teenager with no real responsibilities. I test drove a new GT and it was a blast. Unfortunately, I was hooked on the mini-truck craze of the time and instead bought a new one with all of the bells and whistles.
The Fiero SE is 2,460 lbs and 98 hp, so the experience should be on par with the Bertone and get better with the Formula and GT. Maybe I should test drive one to see if the memory still holds true today.
