Re: Original owners?

Cool, didn't know that. What happened to their $500?

My Typhoon was bought by my Dad from the GM dealer in Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia. It was apparently a demo model but my Dad got it and we have had it ever since. I bought it off him in 2006 and now it is mine. 106k km to date plussome boat miles!

His friend bought a Viper at the same time and always wishes he bought this truck instead.

Re: Original owners?

Original here too! Bought my truck in '91. Traded in my '90 eagle talon awd for it. I remember showing my wife( GF @ the time ) the article in Car & Driver about this wicked little pickup moppin' up ferraris. I went down to the dealer to check them out & ended up coming home with mine after about 4 hours of haggling. At the time, the dealer on Capitol in San Jose had 5 or 6 of them. If I remember correctly, the loaded Surburbans were super hot at the time in the Bay Area, & every Syclone they would sell would get them some deal on the burb's. Ended up paying $500 under sticker.:tup: Still have my "Certificate of Authenticity" framed out in the garage, along with all my broken parts(just a few:roll:), jack stands(should have been a dealer option) & the little black hole itself. :lol:

Re: Original owners?

Im kind of the original owner. Im the first titled owner but the dealership had put
almost 7k on the truck for demo/shows.
A buddy working at the dealership told me about how they had 2 of them for sell
and what he could buy them for. Since it was actually the spring 1992 they was wanting
to get rid of them in a bad way. 17.5k for the demo and I think 20k for the new one.
Ive had a lot of fun with the truck but it has around 70k miles on it and needs pretty
much a total restoration. I have other projects to finish first but it will be put back to new
shape one of these days.

Weird that sy 1619 is a one owner, where my old 1616 had been passed around like herpes
