Has anyone consider a Typhoon prior to purchasing their VX?

I wanted one back when they came out.and would own one today if the right one came along.AND YES I WOULD PARK IT NEXT TO THE VX !!!!!! shawn

I love the Syclone, and Typhoon was almost as cool. I actually test drove a used Typhoon before the VX came to the states and I almost bought it... on the second test drive the turbo acted up and I got scared off. I was so close! I would still LOVE to have a Syclone; maybe one day. I have had two 4-cylinder 2WD versions of it and they were both a blast to drive!

No. No Typhoon...but I've been driving a '99 Lightning since '99.

Wow, people have pretty strong opinions about this thing. Back in the day (haha) this was a mean looking, serious performing SUV. Please take into account what the competitors vehicles look like and perhaps the Typhoon doesn't look all that bad.
I thought it was a much better buy than the Syclone simply b/c the Syclone payload was ridiculously small and why have a truck and waste the bed space if you could hardly load anything in it??
Unfortunately, the few people that have Typhoons either seem to have ragged theirs out or think it's the second coming. So, you're left with paying through the nose for something that has not-so-great GM quality or buying someone else's worn out street racer.
