The Local Vette shop here in town has a 93 GMC Typhoon for sale and Im trying to get my father to trade are Van in for it. The People that own This Corvette dealership Each have one and the both have Syclones to (Typhoons little bro pickup version). Have you guys heard any Pros and cons about these types of Vehicles. They are Great for Winter (AWD) and faster then most stuff on the street. (4.3 liter V-6 Turbo charged and inter cooled) BTW this will be my first car if I can convince my Mom that I wont speed.:laughing:
Typhoons are awesome cars, i would LOVE to have one, but they just arent good daily drivers. i know that some people do use them as daily drivers, but they really shouldnt be. that are pretty rare. syclones were made in 91, maybe 92, and typhoons were made in 92 and 93. so there arent that many of them.
but yes, they are fast as hell off the line, stock sy/ty is faster then a stock vette of the same year in the 1/4mile. thats one of the reasons that they stopped making them.
awesome cars, but not good for a first time driver, or a daily driver.
actually, when i got my check from insurance 16,500 for my truck, i was thinking about buying a typhoon, and then getting a daily driver. but then i realized that when i broke, and it will, i wouldnt be able to afford it.
a guy in our car club(Da Hawaiian Punch also knows him)has a cyclone,its very reliable(his anyway)it has 120,000 miles and is now being rebuild,not because it broke,runs 13.5 .i think its bone stock.i havent seen him for a couple months,or i would ask a few questions for you.i dont know this guy,but theres one(cyclone)on the home page of this local club www.efiunlimited.com click on the picture of the truck,you can check out the ladies later this is the club with the ferrari's,vettes,lambos etc...
later Todd.

I worked with a guy that owned one and he must of been lucky! He beat the snot out of his for two years and the only work done to it was an upgraded Turbo due to the original one going bad (after 60,000 miles if I remember correctly).
I'd love to get one myself, would be a fun vehicle. :thumbsup:

My son is looking at a 2004 Hyundai Tiburon vin:KMHHM65D14U107428
The dealer told him that he thought it has been was involved in accident in 2/14/2005 but that’s all we know……:surprised
If someone can run the VIN that would be very much appreciated. They can email me or just respond to this...
This wasn't me but this was the explanation that accompanied the pic
"This was one of the best laughs in years! I followed this guy home for three blocks to his house to tell him he was about to lose a pipe wrench that was on his bumper. He told me your going to hate me for this and went and...
This thread has been too long time in the making.
My name is Rod and I own a 2005 Cobalt SS that i hope has the chance to enjoy some friendly competition with some Corvette owners in my area.
I originally posted a couple of things about my Cobalt 10 months ago and I have been waiting patiently...
Here's my bug I said I would post. Still lots of work to do, but it's getting there. Should have a little over 410 hp (355 ci sbc).
I'm just about finished with the body work. I'd say 90%. Since last post I've finish widening the fenders, shaved the bumper holes, and shaved the moon vents...
