This truck is a must have Defenatly one of the most underrated trucks out there and also its brother the GMC Cyclone *which of course isn't on supercars.com* This truck would give a 2002 Ford Lightning a run for its money and depending on the driver probably even beat a new Lightning. If you have one of these you are one lucky *****!!
what the hell!!! GMC builds stupid farm mobiles! what is the matter with the dumbasses who put gmc on SUPERCARS.NET emphasis on SUPERCARS! dumbass american mommywagons
japcarsrule and cam1: are you stupid? moronic? retarded? especially you japcarsrule! this Typhoon would whoop your japanese car!<!-- Signature -->
i would love to have one of these. i would pull up to all the stangs, celicas, ram ss/t's, and all the other pussy ass wannabe fast cars in in my school that kids drive.
Rather have a Lightning Personally, i'd rather have a 01' SVT Lightning, but that's just me. And grizz, my jap would smoke yours
Everybody who has a import please leave this forum now because this is a Domestic car with American Power. Us americans like our cars loud with our V8's and not the sounds of little bumble bee's with your V4's. This car would smoke any Jap truck made. And if GMC Typhoon's *or its sister truck the Cyclone* pulled up next to a Jap car sorry to tell you but it would smoke it. And I'm talking about STOCK CAR a stock Typhoon vs. a stock Eclipse, stock Civic, stock Integra, maybe even a stock Supra Turbo *that would be a nice ass race* but the Typhoon would get dusted by a stock Skyline though. But the Typhoon is a very fast truck which is also a very rare truck and is a very nice truck also.
For the record. It's Syclone not Cyclone. Maybe you thought the Mercury Cyclone vs. Ferrari. That wouldn't be a comparison.
This truck is a must have No doubt this is a must have, I'm a proud to own one of 4,601 Typhoons in the world. Let me tell u this Truck can whoop some ass! I have taken it to the strip and have beaten even more powerful cars. My Typhoon is entirely stock and I hands down beat a 5.0 cobra mustang, a SS Comaro with Loads of engine work and some other no so notables. I was able to do this because the AWD system of the Typhoon/Syclone is amazing. I can make amazing launches while my opponent struggles to get traction. I belive that a Syclone or Typhoon would beat a 2001 Ford lightning because it is a notorious tire smoker where i have found it nearly imposible to break the wheels loose on my Typhoon.

This is one of the GREAT and GODLIKE Turbo 6's And a stock supra? My asshole. All of the Jap TT cars would beat a typhoon stock for stock. But this is #$%#ing impressive for a 4WD SUV. And why are you comparing a civic or integra to this car? You can't really. This is one of the only SUV's I actually would love to have. Grand National Typhoon Syclone Turbo 6's ain't nothin to #$%# with.<!-- Signature -->
Just for the record a STOCK Typhoon/Syclone can beet a STOCK Toyota Supra TT by a fair margin, I've done it in mine and have seen it done in some online videos. Thats one of the fastest japanees cars ever produced and thats cuz its not a 4 banger front wheel drive pice o shit all the rest of u ricers are into. visit my anti honda website at: www.geocities.com/gohomerice/pbHondaSucks.html
I am a Sy/Ty expert and i know almost anything there is to know about them, and in my research andexpirience with them i have learned that any japanese piece of shit would lose by a significant amount the syclones and typhoons have beaten supras hands down. the only japcrap it might not beat is the skyline. I would also like to say that supercars.net underrated this car the typhoons i have seen have done 0-60 in much faster than 5.6 i have seen stock syclones do it in high 4's
believeinfiction - nice one, very good! that was a very funny site. i agree with you on the principle that Honda's are everyday cars, but lets not forget the NSX, here in europe and also in asia it is a superb supercar (and yes i do think it is, 276hp from the mid-mounted 6 isn't too shabby) for a reasonable price. and surely the reason behind VTEC (and any other vvt technology) is that your car can behave like a civic if you want it to (if i had an NSX, i would use it as normal) but if you let the revs creep up you have access to 160mph+ sprints. it just means you have a multi-use engine. i fully agree that might makes right, the saying that there is no substitute for cubic inches is true, this is where the majority of US cars come out on top. now i love every single car on this planet, i like ricers, i like what they're doing, i would imagine it's tough to afford US muscle, so they're carving their own niche. i also like the corvettes, the vipers, the syclones and every other street machine out there. what it comes down to is that everyone has a favourite and it's not nice to pick on someone 'cos they think different to you. i know you weren't being deliberately nasty but there is always someone out there who has a spaz 'cos they don't read properly. good racing bro!<!-- Signature -->
Once again, lets keep the Jap crap off of this and many other American sites. I have a Syclone and for the year it is it will stomp most anything out there. (WERE TALKING STOCK HERE,REMEMBER!) Definatly AWD is the shit! Just to probably tick a few people off, I can't stand Jap crap or Ford. Ford can't make a vehicle to save their life. Thanks Have a great day!
280hp from a 4.3? The skyline can pull nearly the same with nearly a liter less displacement. and american muscle is not what it takes to pull off being a supercar you lumberjack idiot.
Well to bad the Skyline isn't available in America and to bad the Skyline is about 8 times the cost of a Syclone you moron!
Are some of you guys messed up in the head? This truck is awsome, and what wrong with GMC, I think some of you guys are just angry because you can't afford one so you get one of those 4 banger hondas.
I know man I sure do wish I had me a typhoon so i can go 125mph with it too. -sarcasm: This thing sucks and it doesn't belong on a site called 'SuperCars.net'.
Well hell if money is the problem then get a job not a typhoon.Save your money for a decent vehicle not this pile. I wonder what idiot decided to put this abomination on here?
Really the skyline makes more horsepower with less displacement? Hmmm you dont think that its becuse its gets more boost from TWO turbos do you? Wow the engineers at nissan must be at the head of there class to bolt on two high output turbos. Horsepower Per Liter means NOTHING get over it!
Yes because we all drive around at 125mph all day every day. Why are you so unreasonable about price? Even an individual with a solid career bringing in 75-100k a year would be hard pressed to buy a $150,000+ Modena, who's performance could be matched by a $50,000 Z06. Yes you have to spend money to get performance but $150,000 is just pure extravagance. I'm sure whatever your driving isnt terribly expensive, people with serious money would not waste there time on this site. check my typhoon at: www.geocites.com/vasyty/typhoonhome.html
dude...you are an idiot. Even if I had a high dollar paying job I wouldn't have the money to go out an get a Skyline. A R34 V Spec II Skyline GT-R on Motorex is $90k+. Yeah....all of us have that kinda money with the jobs we work at you dousch bag
I love my typhoon! I can whoop almost any other chevy or Ford and most definitly any stock Jap! Mine is stock and I have took mine to the strip and kicked some butt. Even though it is awesome my Lightning performs better (after the burn out)
