THIS IS A NO RESERVE LISTING.

This is my 1992 GMC Typhoon with 27,957 original miles.  This is one of the cleanest, most original Typhoons in the country, and it is no doubt one of the best-quality Typhoon trucks for sale in the country.

This Typhoon is a pristine, museum-quality collector's vehicle in totally stock, unmodified condition.  If you have been looking for that "perfect" Typhoon, this is the one. 

This is a two-owner vehicle since new, and this Typhoon has been owned by the same person for the past 20 years.  During that time, the car was always garaged and covered.  This truck has not seen rain, snow or salt in at least the last 20 years.

This is the proverbial "park it in the garage and rub it with a diaper" car.  You could not hope to find a cleaner, more original or better condition Typhoon anywhere.

The GMC Typhoon is a very rare ultra high-performance vehicle built by GM in the early 1990s.  This truck features the 4.3L V6 with a turbocharger plus AWD.  Horsepower was rated at 280 at the time, which was less than the actual output of over 300HP.  These Typhoons would go 0-60 in 5.3 seconds in an era when Ferraris couldn't even keep up. 

Only 4697 Typhoons were produced in total, for model years 1992 and 1993 only.  In 1992, only 345 of them were made in this color, Apple Red. 

Typhoons were luxurious as well as fast, and this one has leather seats, AWD, automatic transmission, A/C, factory AM/FM CD player, keyless entry plus power locks and windows. 

I have the original books and manuals for this Typhoon plus two sets of keys.

The paint and body are absolutely gorgeous.  The paint is all original and it is in superb condition with no oxidation or fading.  There is absolutely no body rust.  The paint and body are so superb, you can hardly believe this car is 20 years old.  The paint is glossy, shiny and there is no wear, sun-fade, nor any exterior faults of any significance.

The factory aluminum wheels are in beautiful condition, and the truck has the correct Firestone Firehawk SVX tires with good tread.

The interior of this Typhoon still has the new car smell- really.  The interior shows NO wear- the leather is superb, the carpets and upholstery look new and the entire interior looks like the day it was made.  This an impossibly gorgeous and clean interior.  All of the switches, controls and plastics are tight and still feel and look like they did when they were new. 

This Typhoon starts, runs and drives exactly how it should- which is just like new.  This truck is totally stock and not modified in any way.  It is exactly the way it was built by GM.  It runs and drives beautifully and if you wanted, there is no reason you couldn't drive this truck anywhere in the country.

The underside of this GMC is spotless- it is totally clean, solid and in beautiful condition. 

This is a superb, collector's quality example of a rare vehicle- this Typhoon will never be worth less than it is today, and it will always continue to appreciate in value. 

If you want to truly "nit-pick" a car this nice, here is what you will find: there are a few nearly imperceptible tiny dings on the side from "garage wear".  The driver's seat outside bolster foam is very slightly flattened.  And the left front plastic fender cladding is just the tiniest bit loose and vibrates slightly- this very minor vibration has worn the paint beneath the plastic trim.  These are exceedingly minor faults to find on a car this pristine. 

This Typhoon belongs in a GM museum or a private car collection.  This is just an amazing car in every respect.

MotorWeek looks back at 1995 Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon

Sat, Jun 20 2015

MotorWeek's Retro Review series gives us a nostalgic look back at some of the best sports cars and luxury sedans available in the 1980s and '90s. For its latest clip, the show shifts gears to remember the 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon. Similar to the success of crossovers today, SUVs were tallying big sales and making big money for automakers in the mid-'90s. The Tahoe and Yukon filled slots in the market as steps down from the larger Suburban. These twins weren't wanting for space, though, with plenty of room to haul around a family. MotorWeek came away generally impressed too, and called the models some "of the better riding sport utilities we've ever experienced." This review comes with some jazzy, electric guitar licks to enjoy in the background.

GMC Envoy could be returning as GM files for 'Envoy' trademark

Thu, Dec 27 2018

The GMC Envoy could be on its way back, if a recent GM trademark filing is any indication of the future. To be exact, GM's trademark filing is for the name "Envoy," and is applicable to "motor vehicles, namely, sport utility vehicles, engines therefor and structural parts thereof." A victim of the recession and high gas prices, the original Envoy – related to the Blazer, and more recently the TrailBlazer and similar GM SUVs – was discontinued after the 2009 model year. In today's SUV-happy market of low gas prices, unearthing the somewhat familiar Envoy name makes a certain amount of sense. As soon as gas prices start trending in the other direction, we'll all be saying the opposite, though. What this SUV will take shape as is the big question now. With the Chevrolet Blazer well and truly on its way, there's every reason for a GMC version of Chevy's stylish new crossover sporting the Envoy name. Another, less likely, possibility is a Traverse-sized vehicle to slot between the shorter Acadia (10 inches shorter than the Chevy Traverse) and the body-on-frame Yukon. GM could come out of left field and make the Envoy a Buick too. It fits the bill with the "En" beginning, and Buick undoubtedly has crossovers in the works. We think that's even more unlikely, but it's important to remember that we're still in the speculation phase. Soon we'll drive Chevy's new Blazer, and perhaps have more news then. Check in next week for that. Related video:

2016 GMC Terrain refresh revealed

Tue, Mar 31 2015

Posting its best-ever sales year in 2014, the GMC Terrain is hauling in sales, conquest buyers, and profits for the brand. GMC wants that to continue with its refresh for the 2016 model year, which sees the underlying formula left untouched under a raft of cosmetic and trim changes. There will be four trim levels: SL, SLE (SLE-1 and SLE-2), SLT, and Denali. They all get a front fascia with a lot more character, sculpted with chrome-outlined, C-shaped ornamentation, and all but the base SL version feature chrome accents on the grille. Flanking that, the headlights get new LED DRL signatures and the hood gets a power dome. The Denali gets new 19-inch alloys, models below it get new 18-inch wheel designs, and the sheetmetal color palette expands with the addition of White Frost Tricoat and Crimson Red Tintcoat. Beyond a revised center console, a mix of cabin offerings spice up the various trims. Premium cloth is the go-to for the SL and SLE, "Saddle Up" leather is an option on the SLT as well as an eight-way passenger seat, and a two-tone, dual-material Light Titanium and Jet Black interior is possible inside the Denali. Assistance features migrate down, with Side Blind Zone Alert and Rear Cross Traffic Alert available on the Terrain SLE and SLT for the first time. Engine choices remain the 182-horsepower Ecotec 2.4-liter inline-four, and the 272-hp 3.6-liter V6. The press release below has more details, and we'll have more on it live from the show floor. GMC Introduces 2016 Terrain New appearance, features build on success in growing compact SUV segment NEW YORK, March 31, 2015 – Distinguished by a new, more contemporary front-end appearance, the 2016 GMC Terrain and Terrain Denali were introduced today, ahead of their public debut at the New York International Auto Show. The 2016 Terrain lineup features new front and rear fascias, new grille designs, a power dome hood, light-emitting diode (LED) daytime running lamps and additional updates. Side Blind Zone Alert and Rear Cross Traffic Alert are offered on SLE and SLT models for the first time. "Terrain is a popular choice in the growing compact SUV segment, introducing drivers to GMC's professional grade design and features," said Duncan Aldred, vice president of GMC Sales and Marketing.
