This showroom condition 1993 GMC Typhoon with just 688 miles on the odometer is an exceptionally low-mileage example that just sold for a whopping $226,000 USD. Power comes from a turbocharged 4.3-liter V6 engine making 280 hp and 360 lb-ft of torque, paired with a four-speed automatic transmission, all-wheel drive, a transfer case, as well as a limited-slip rear differential.
These specs made the Typhoon a beast in its day, often outpacing sports cars of the era. The exterior is finished in Apple Red with color-matched lower cladding and wheel arches, a rare combo—only about 77 were produced in this color for 1993. Inside, it features Charcoal leather upholstery, along with amenities like fog lights, turbine-style 16-inch aluminum wheels, a self-leveling rear suspension, cruise control, and air conditioning.

The engine was impressive for a compact SUV in the early ’90s—enough to propel the roughly 3,800-pound vehicle from 0 to 60 mph in around 5.3 seconds, according to period tests by magazines like Car and Driver. That kind of acceleration put it in the same league as contemporary Corvettes and Mustangs, which is wild for something with a truck bed’s cousin in its DNA. You can check out the auction page here.
