    Default Time to move....the race car

    Lost my storage unit yesterday as the owner of it sold it and the new owners take possession monday of it. So, I had to move my brothers car and my car as a result... Couldnt really get on it though as the roads are wet/cold out here still.... >_> Little pull tho - enough to hear the turbo build a little boost...

    I remember when those things were only a couple of thousand bucks. Then the prices went through the roof for them after 2000. I have no idea what they're worth now. Nice car.

    leygomyego: Its an 85, but Ive swapped out the hot air motor in favor of the 87 intercooled setup.
    Iron Lizard: Its an infection.... I also have an 87 Turbo T as well.
    Old man: I do as well to. There was a 86 White T type for sale down the street from me for 950 bucks at one time and all it needed was new head gaskets. Oooooh, if Id only knew then what I know now.... X_x I paid 8K for mine in 2006 money, but Now its well over 20K for a similar car
    Foxhound: Id love a 89 Turbo Trans Am - its the best Pontiac Buick ever built! ;P

    If you guys wanna keep up/stay tuned along with me for this race season, I'll be posting all the vids to my youtube page. http://www.youtube.com/user/GFiero87/videos Thanks for all the comments guys! -Ben

    I love that car or anything with a turbo for that matter. Sean Penn Drives a Buick Grand national, such a cool car.

    My buddy had an 87 about 10 years ago. Ported heads, cam, exhuast, I can't remember all the details. It was awesome. I remember destoying a NSX (not that fast) and a newer Porsche at the same time. We were laughing about it the whole night. So many car guys had no clue what the hell it was. Though we did get respect from the Supra guys which was awesome.

    After that I want to put turbos on everything. My daily is an 89 740 Turbo Volvo wagon with a ported head, cam, bigger turbo, my 92 5.0 coupe will have one soon, and even the 455 66 Lemans will.

    David Spade is known for driving one.
