Revell 1985 Pontiac Fiero GT — 1:24 Scale Model Kit

The 1985 Pontiac Fiero GT was one of those cars. With its mid-engine layout, two-seat configuration, distinctive wedge-shaped styling, and futuristic appearance, the Fiero brought a very different approach to the American sports-car market of the 1980s. Revell recreates this unusual Pontiac in a detailed 1:24 scale plastic model kit, capturing the features that made the Fiero GT such a memorable car. 

The 1985 Pontiac Fiero GT

Introduced in 1984, the Pontiac Fiero was an innovative two-seat sports car built around a space-frame chassis and plastic body panels. The following year, Pontiac introduced the higher-performance Fiero GT, giving the car a more powerful engine and distinctive aerodynamic styling.

Revell's kit recreates the 1985 Fiero GT at 1:24 scale, with 79 parts and a Level 4 difficulty rating. Recommended for ages 12 and up, it offers a detailed but approachable project for enthusiasts interested in unusual American sports cars. 

Mid-Engine 2.8L V6

One of the defining characteristics of the Fiero is its mid-mounted engine.

The Revell kit includes a detailed reproduction of the 2.8-liter multi-port fuel-injected V6, positioned behind the passenger compartment just as it was on the original car. The engine is visible beneath the opening rear engine cover, giving builders the opportunity to add realistic paint and mechanical detailing. 

The mid-engine configuration also makes the Fiero particularly interesting to build, as the mechanical layout differs considerably from the traditional front-engine American cars of the period.

Opening Engine Cover

The rear engine compartment is one of the major highlights of the model.

The opening engine cover provides direct visibility of the detailed V6 underneath, allowing the finished model to be displayed either with the body closed for a clean exterior appearance or opened to showcase the mechanical components. 

Distinctive GT Aerodynamics

The Fiero GT received a unique aerodynamic treatment that immediately distinguished it from the standard Fiero.

Revell reproduces the characteristic GT aero package, including the large rear spoiler and the distinctive body styling that gave the car a more aggressive appearance. The design was influenced by Pontiac's 1984 Indianapolis 500 pace car, adding an interesting connection between the production GT and Pontiac's motorsport-inspired development. 

High-Tech Wheels

The original Fiero GT was known for its distinctive high-tech wheel design, and Revell carefully reproduces this feature in scale.

The wheels complement the angular bodywork and help capture the unmistakable appearance of an early-1980s Fiero. Combined with the low-profile sports-car proportions, they give the finished model an authentic period look.

Optional Custom Configurations

For builders who want to create something beyond the factory-original Fiero GT, Revell includes additional customization options.

The kit provides optional side scoops as well as a dramatic Ram Air scoop mounted above the roof, allowing the model to be transformed into a more aggressive, track-inspired interpretation.

These options make the kit more than a simple replica and give builders the freedom to personalize the final appearance.

Detailed Interior

Inside, the model recreates the two-seat cabin of the Fiero GT, complementing the angular exterior styling.

The compact cockpit provides an excellent opportunity for detailed painting, particularly around the seats, dashboard, door panels, and interior trim. Builders can reproduce the original factory appearance or experiment with their own color combinations.

Authentic GT Details

Revell has paid attention to the smaller details that distinguish the GT version from the standard Fiero.

The kit includes factory-accurate details, red stripes, and an all-new decal sheet, allowing builders to reproduce the distinctive appearance of the original 1985 model. 

Level 4 Model Kit

Rated Level 4, this Fiero GT is intended for modelers with some previous experience assembling and painting plastic model kits.

With 79 parts, the kit offers enough detail to create an engaging project while remaining manageable in size. At 1:24 scale, the completed model also fits naturally alongside other classic Revell automotive kits.

A Unique Pontiac for Your Collection

The 1985 Pontiac Fiero GT occupies a special place in American automotive history. Its mid-engine layout, plastic body panels, two-seat configuration, and futuristic styling made it unlike most other American cars of its time.

Revell's 1:24 scale kit captures those characteristics with a detailed mid-mounted V6, opening engine cover, GT aerodynamic package, distinctive wheels, authentic decals, and optional custom parts.
