1987 Pontiac Sunbird GT Turbo Convertible
logikfive:
Not really sure where else to put this, I'm sure it's not fast by any means and not really very sexy, but I thought it was incredibly cool and I've never seen one.
I stood and talked to the owner for about 20 minutes, even had him pop the hood to see what kind of powerplant it had, I was thinking a 2.8L V8 turbo similar to the 3.1 turbo motors they ran in the early 90's Pontiac TGP's. To my amazement, it had a 2.0L 4-cylinder that looked like it was a bitch to work on.
Anyone have any idea how many of these things were made? I googled it quick and didn't find a single thing.
[ChaosweaveR]:
Nice find. The 2.0L Turbos are very hard to come by, GM tossed them into the 3rd gen Grand Am for a few model years, too.

I had 2 1984 cavaliers. Both lived past 200k miles with the non-turboed engine. The interior shot made me miss them :( The second cavalier I had was a 2 door hatch Type 10. The second one was fun. Handled very well, 5 speed manual, though only 86 horsepower. I should go buy another one :lol: Or get one a couple years younger with the Z24.

Looks like Protonus from roclife.org's car. I love the two-tone.
