No, it failed because it sucked. It wasn't until '88 that they finally got it to the point where it was halfway decent. It's not like the lack of a back seat has hurt Boxster sales to any appreciable extent.

Really? The Boxster is a nitch market car? How many are sold at $60,000? How do you account for the fact when the two seat T-Bird hit the market it sold well, but two years later sales were in the dumper. When Ford decided to change it to a four seater, all the sages said it was a mistake to do so, but sales of the four seater T-Bird were quadruple those of the best annual sales of the two seater? ;)
What you say is true, but the Fiero was also a niche car. It failed; Porsche didn't, they just come out with something newer and better every
15 years or so. If the Fiero had been almost as good as a Porsche at half the price, it'd have been redesigned twice and still on the market.nate
