I had a '99 several years ago. It was like a slot car. Handled great, just underpowered for me.View attachment 197111View attachment 197110

Yes they are not going to throw you head back but they corner great and due to the size they "feel" like they are flying.

I have no idea but I bet you there is at least one empty Budweiser can in the back seat!

Could be this guys big brother, they got the same ass. Except this one would have a craft beer can on the floor board.

When I get around to finding some pics, I owned 4 Turbo Buicks over about 15 years, 2000 to 2015, all the 86/87 intercooled models. 84/85 we're called hot air, no intercooler. Had a Grand National, couple Turbo Ts/ T-types, and an 87 stock Limited with about every option. Limited sticker was over 19k in 87! They have the Bowling Green Nationals I attended all those years and real cool old school track with all types of Buicks.

I learned so much about how to tune them and so many aftermarket parts are available. I ran methanol injection on one and it hooked hard and ran fast at the track on 25 lb boost with more if you wanted. 1.51 60ft, 11.0 @ 122 mph. You're making me miss them a bit but have moved on to other things. Stock one could run low 12s, which I got one set up for. I'd state eighth mile times but those aren't know as well. Eighth mile x 1.57 is about a quarter mile time.

Finally got around to digging out some pictures of the turbo Buicks, the 87 GN and Turbo T, and 86 T-type the 11.0 car. Haven't came across the 87 Limited, 1 of 1035, plus 92 option codes. Very enjoyable street cars, the GN had T-tops!

I always thought I'd like to build something like a T bucket, with a unique engine like a W head Chevy, a Chevy 292 inline 6 with Strombergs, even a Ford 300...but holy grail, a GMC Twin 6.
