Yes, there were several Geo models that came turbocharged.. early metros and prism had a turbocharged model believe it or not.

Yes, the Buick Grand National is a great example. And the motor your thinking of is actually a 3800 SC. Commonly seen in GTP's and Buick Rivieras

I don't see how some of you see a cavalier in the car at all.. I mean look at the last gen cavalier, it looks nothing alike lol.. the body lines are completely different, i can sort of see the civic in the headlights, only because of the size.. even the shape of the headlights are way different.. oh well.. I guess somone will buy the car and then we will see how capable it really is.

yep. they did a turbo sunbird in 87ish, not to mention a turbo 3.1 V6 in the grand Prix in 1988, IIRC.


Turbo Sprint in 84-86 (which would haul immortal ass with a little work, 1400lb car and about 150hp... ) and of course the turbo metro, which was a canadian export for some reason, it was a 1.0 turbo (no boost at all though...it was a shitcan. and a bitch to work on.)
