The seller said he had not done a rebuild (he's owned it for the past 10 years), and I can't believe he's tolerated it for 10 years, so it must have a been a recent development.

Good morning. I've been casually looking for a clean Typhoon for many, many years (as you can tell from my join date) and I finally have the means to pick one up now that the kids are getting older. I test drove a very clean truck yesterday, but one thing that worried me was a loud clunking...

Re: ty questions Good call green. 5 months ago I was in the same boat. I needed a new car and I had narrowed it down to a Saturn ION Redline (supercharged 2.0L) or a Ty. I got the Saturn and I'm saving for a Sy or Ty. In a few years I'll walk up to one of these guys with a wad of cash and...

Re: Typhoon or Redline???? Advice, please. 2Kwik, All you say is true. It is a great alternative. But since I am a poor SOB I gots to stay around the $20K mark. Thanks for your advice!!

Re: Typhoon or Redline???? Advice, please. Yes, but still pricey even with my discount.

Re: Typhoon or Redline???? Advice, please. I would agree that Saturn isn't known for Lexus-like interior materials. Although I do like the dent and scratch resistant body panels. (I sold a 99 Grand prix with 8 door dings!!) When I test drove the ION Redline, even with the wierd plastics it...

Re: Typhoon or Redline???? Advice, please. I've heard of that. It sounds kick ass. How much boost does the turbo provide?? What did he have to do to the internals? Thanks for the STi offer, but I doubt you want to give it away. ;)

Re: Typhoon or Redline???? Advice, please. True. But, the main reason I like the Redline over the SS is the rear suicide doors, since I have a 2 year old I have to get in/out of the back seat. Let me tell you, its a real fun time getting her in and out of my GTO!!!!!!!!! You are correct...

Re: Typhoon or Redline???? Advice, please. I don't buy Japanese. Call me old-fashioned............................

Re: Typhoon or Redline???? Advice, please. Yeah, they look great. But a little out of my league on price right now. I'm trying to stay under $20,000. Sounds like the consensus is.........ION Redline.

Re: Typhoon or Redline???? Advice, please. That is exactly what the rational side of me says. BUT, the emotional side says get the Ty. I think the overall cost of ownership will be significantly lower with the Saturn, but the original transaction price will be lower with the Ty.

I'M TORN AND NEED ADVICE!!!! My GTO lease will be over mileage soon and I need a new ride. I have two options right now: take advantage of the lease pull ahead and get into a new Saturn ION Redline OR buy the Ty I've wanted since high school. Before you offer advice know that I'll be driving...

Re: Ty in Crestwood, IL Well, your knockoff Ty looks pretty cool regardless!!! Thanks, I'll be in touch if he gets back with me.

Re: Ty in Crestwood, IL OK. We've been in contact. If things progress, I may beg you to really check it out for me. Like run a datamaster if you have one. BTW--Did you see that feature in Hemmings Muscle Machines 2 issues ago? That's one exclusive club you belong to!! :tup: Thanks again.

Re: Ty in Crestwood, IL Thanks. I just hope he hasn't sold it yet!!!!

Has anyone in the Chicago area seen this Ty that Roman Built has posted in the Trucks For Sale section. It looks great from the pics. Would appreciate any info. Thanks guys.

Re: Indy Event We are looking for you guys Even though I have no Ty or GN, I'll be there. Keep us posted if the dates change.

Re: Z06 Vette - A win and a loss The new Z06 has the LS7, so yes.

Re: Ty vs. Trailblazer SS As a person ready to get into a SyTy I must admit this discussion makes me worried. I drove a TB for 2 years and although I never had problems and the I-6 is outstanding I just couldn't get over the substandard interior. It was NOT any nicer than a Ty's and it was 10...

Re: Another Newbie!! Thanks for having me! I'm actually right between Greenwood and Bargersville. Yes that's the one with the hood deflector. Its otherwise a pretty clean truck. Thanks for the offer, I really hope something pops up locally around October of next year (when my lease is up)...
