It's a real shame for the loss of a specialty business and all those cars. You don't have to be a big fan of the Fiero model to still feel bad for the entire area, businesses and the people involved. Fiero made possible lots of advanced technology that made it's way into dozens of other GM cars. It was also a great example of how smart Pontiac people took super limited funds GM was willing to invest in Pontiac and the project and still made a decent little car initially and then every year continued to improve it until they really had a competitive model when it was cancelled. Just sad all around.
