  • The Scamborghini debuted on Faster with Finnegan as Newbern, Cotten and Finnegan attempted to beat a Lamborghini Gallardo for a fraction of the price with a beater Fiero-based Countach kit car and a brand new V8. Now Newbern & Cotten take the V-8-powered Pontiac Fiero-based Lamborghini Countach kit car and give it a 6-foot lift!

      I still have a Roadkill sticker on the toolbox on my truck from when the show first came out and they were giving them away. Hot Rod mag reader here who knew Finnegan and Frieburger before the show was even a thing. Now I'm disabled and can't work, it'd be nice to watch all the shows that used to be free while I can't do anything, but can't afford it.

    The Pontiac Fiero actually had less than 300 reported engine fires due to manufacturing defects out of a production of 300,000 and almost all of them were in cars produced in the first half of the 84 model year.

    • @mattmccormick5042
      @mattmccormick5042 7 місяців тому +1

      The Fiero fires were due to the measly 3 quart oil capacity on the 2.5 liter Iron Dukes. The motor would overheat the oil and ignite on fire .

    • @weaselduke

      Must have had to modify the oil pan for the fiero. My iron duke held about 5 quarts.

    • @bryansmith6000
      @bryansmith6000 7 місяців тому +1

      @@mattmccormick5042 Incorrect. The fires were actually found to be caused by a bad casting process for the pistons which caused mechanical failure and the lack of a heat guard on the exhaust manifold
