Being a former Typhoon owner,I had my Teal Ty for about 7 years. My opinion is, they are a unique vehicle. Has great sleeper status,if people know what they are when they see one they get excited for seeing one, if they didn't know, they found out fast as to how that little truck or suv just kicked your ass. They have their common problems just like any vehicle. Every time I drove it I had a smile on my face. Engine bay was a bit cramped to work on. They are not as common as a turbo Buick. Being an owner chances are you'll be the only syty at the car show. I don't think they have as much aftermarket support like the turbo Buicks do.
With that being said, since I've owned one already, doubt I'd buy another one unless I hit the lottery, then I'd get a Sy since I only had a Ty. I've never owned a turbo Buick,but actively looking to buy one now, but I've been in a few over they years from friends that have owned turbo Buicks. In my opinion its like comparing apples and oranges. Only thing they really have in common is the turbo. They both have strong/weak points,etc. If I was rich, I'd have 1 of each. Nothing like a good AWD boosted launch on a built syty.
