1993 GMC TYPHOON WITH LOW MILEAGE, IT'S CLEAN AND HARD TO FIND AND STOCK

This is 1 of 19 Typhoons that came from the assembly line in 1993 painted Garnet Red.  The paint code on the glove box label is WAL-9096.  This is confirmed Garnet Red and very rare.  Out of the two years these Typhoons were produced, 1993 was the only year GMC offered Garnet Red as an available color.  Only a handful of Garnet Red Typhoons still exists in unmolested condition with low mileage.  Garnet Red and Aspen Blue were the rarest colors on Typhoons.  Black was the most common color.  There are a lot of black Typhoons.  This one looks the part and performs very nicely.  This is a non-modified truck (which is very important for Typhoon buyers I am told) except for a K/N air filter and color matched upper IC cover and hood struts.  They were done by the previous owner who was a collector for Typhoons and owned the rarest ones.  Tires are in good condition.  The electrical items work.  It doe snot leak.  Engine and tranny are smooth working.  The cruise and AC work well.   No rust or bubbles anywhere on the body.  This vehicle was garaged all the time.  In poor condition this truck lists on KBB for over $15,000.  It is not easy to find this color and this low mileage example of these Typhoons.   This is a very well performing vehicle and true to its form it is very fast.  Speeds up like a bullet.  Seats are very comfortable for even large size individuals and interior is in very good shape.  The pictures do not show the factory roof rack.  It was removed, to make it more of a sleek look, but since it is listed for sale, I have installed it back on the vehicle now and it is in perfect condition. 

I am a private seller.  My reserve is very reasonably set as to this vehicle.  Please do not ask me to disclose the reserve or ask me what I want for the car.  If you have an offer feel free to make it and I will respond.  If you are serious about it we can go from there.  If you would like to see and inspect the car please do not wait until the last day.  It seems obvious but I must say it regardless:  If you win the auction, you are the buyer and you must pay.  That is not the time to inspect and decide if you want to complete the transaction.   The shipping is buyer's responsibility and if you would like to see what will it cost, please hit the shipping button on e-bay and you will be given 2-3 quotes by various shipping companies.  It is something e-bay provides, nothing to do with me.  The car is currently registered in CA.  It has a clear CA title.  The car will not be released until your funds are released into my account. That is when I will also send you the title.  The deposit is not refundable if you fail to complete the transaction for any reason.  

Here is some general information about Typhoons

The GMC Typhoon is a high-performance version of the GMC Jimmy SUV. Typhoon was produced only in 1992 and 1993. Both the GMC Syclone and Typhoon trucks featured a Mitsubishi TD06-17C/8 cm turbocharger and Garrett Water/Air intercooler attached to a 4.3 L LB4 V6 intake manifolds, fuel system, exhaust manifolds, and a 48mm twin-bore throttle body from the 5.7 L GM small block engine.   All Syclones and Typhoons had a GM 700R4 transmission (4L60) 4-speed automatic transmission and a Borg Warner 1372 (Syclone)/4472 (Typhoon) transfer case splitting torque with 35% forward and 65% to the rear wheels. Both trucks featured all wheel drive, upgraded brakes, and sport modifications to the standard suspensions. Unlike the Syclone, the Typhoon featured an air-operated self leveling rear suspension. Output was officially 280 hp (209 kW) and 360 lb·ft (488 N·m), but some stock Typhoons have been measured at over 300 hp (224 kW) on a dynamometer. The Typhoon was capable of accelerating from 0-60 mph in 5.3 seconds and could do a quarter-mile run in 14.1 seconds at 95 mph (153 km/h). Car & Driver compared the Syclone's performance favorably to the Ferrari 348 TS, Corvette and Nissan 300ZX Turbo.   It cost $29,970.

Typhoons were built for GMC byProduction Automotive Services of Troy Michigan.  Aside from a handful of prototypes, only 4,697 Typhoons were built by GMC: 2,497 in 1992, and 2,200 in 1993. Unlike regular production Syclones, Typhoons were offered in various color configurations that differed by year, with black/black being the most common.

GMC SIerra Denali is ready to live the high life

Wed, 29 May 2013

Between the information for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado High Country and the accidently leaked picture on GMC's consumer site, it didn't take much imagination to envision what the 2014 GMC Sierra Denali would be like. But here it is. Going on sale this fall, the 2014 Sierra Denali will continue to be the most luxurious pickup truck in the General Motors portfolio, while getting more power and technology than ever before.
Like previous models, the 2014 Sierra Denali stands out from lower Sierra models with a big cheese-grater chrome grille, 20-inch chrome wheels and body-color bumpers. Inside, the Denali gets plenty of leather with contrasting stitching, but this is where GMC really steps up from the Silverado High Country with real aluminum trim and a new customizable eight-inch driver display in the gauge cluster. Standard features will include heated and cooled front bucket seats, the Intellilink infotainment system with Bose audio, while the options list offers a Driver Alert Package (with forward collision alert and lane departure warning), a rear-seat entertainment system and a Z71 Off-Road Package.
As for power, the standard engine will be the 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 with its 355 horsepower, and the optional engine will be the new 6.2-liter V8. Although official power figures for the bigger engine aren't in yet, GM is finally putting some estimates on paper expecting around 420 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque to go with a 12,000-pound towing capacity. The new Sierra Denali will be available in either two- or four-wheel drive. Scroll down for more details listed in the official press release.

GM pushing back on proposed pickup and SUV brake recall [w/poll]

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Through the first six months of 2014, General Motors has recalled 29 million cars and trucks in 54 different actions. If your author's notoriously sketchy math is correct, that'd work out to one recall every 3.5 days (as of this writing). GM is actively fighting to make sure there isn't a 55th recall, though.
Safety critics, including perennial nemesis Clarence Ditlow of the Center for Auto Safety, are calling on GM to recall a further six million pickup trucks and SUVs in northerly climes due to corroding brake lines caused by the use of road salt. There is a catch, here, though ­- the vehicles in question are over 10 years old, and include the 1999 to 2003 Chevrolet Silverado, Suburban and GMC Sierra, as well as the 2000 to 2003 Tahoe and Yukon (shown above).
GM issued the following statement on the matter, obtained by CNN Money:

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
