Who killed the Pontiac Fiero?

Introduced in 1983, the Pontiac Fiero holds the title as the first and only mass-produced mid-engine sports car by a U.S. automaker.
But its short five-year production run, along with its propensity to catch fire, has left the Fiero dangling in automotive folklore.

And so it was in 1997 that Brad and the Motoring TV team set out to find out who killed the Pontiac Fiero.
