That's no rare Italian sportscar, that's a BiTurbo. In GM terms, its a nicely trimmed '80s Cavalier with the torque steer you'd expect after you put an HO 5.0L V8 into it, plus it has all of the self igniting fire capabilities of an '84 Fiero. That and the reliability of an old British sports car that had been in a flood. Awful cars with no resale value. Regardless of its low miles, it looks like the leading edge of the front fender is rusted through. No tragedy here, and the dealer would be a fool to keep it. JMO....

Way to go Tom! Now you've angered all the Maserati BiTurbo lovers, all the '84 Fiero lovers, the '80s Cavalier lovers, and the old British sports car lovers! Honesty does have a way of doing that, doesn't it.

"The only positive thing about the 'Cash for Clunkers' program is that it took 700,000 Obama bumper stickers off the road."

Coming out of college in '93, I thought the Typhoon and Syclone were the neatest thing since sliced bread!!!! I am not that old that these are considered clunkers!!!!!!!!!

One of my college buddies had a Typhoon... that thing was wicked fast. I had a Porsche 951 (944 turbo) and we used to love to let the turbo's scream.
