This Typhoon isn't museum quality, but it is a piece of history I could thrash guilt-free. That and its salad shooters make me happy.

Anyone familiar with the souped-up two-door S-15 Jimmy surely recognizes its cargo-bed-toting twin, the mechanically identical GMC Syclone. The latter's claim to fame came when—the pickup truck blew the Italian exotic's side-straked doors off.

Not only did the Syclone's 5.3-second zero-to-60-mph time beat the Ferrari's by seven-tenths, but it also won the drag race. The GMC went 1320 feet in 14.1 seconds at 93 mph, while the 348ts took 14.5 ticks at 99 mph. The transitive property suggests the Typhoon would've done the same, as the one we tested in 1992 had virtually identical results .Even by today's standards, the GMC Typhoon's test numbers hold up. In fact, its 30-to-50-mph time of 2.

The '93 Typhoon on Bring a Trailer has a high bid of $11,750, as of this writing, with the no-reserve auction set to end on Thursday. If I had the disposable income and the final bid doesn't go much higher, I'd be happy to add GMC's cult classic on C4 Corvette rims to my collection.
