Oh yeah...I remember those POS trucks. The Syclone was kind of cool for back in the day though.

For an AWD truck/pickup in '91 that was officially rated at 280 hp and 360 ft·lb tq, and did 0-60 in 5.3 secs, I wouldn't call them POS's. 5.3 is Ferrari 348, Vette and 350z turbo neighborhood.

I wanted one back in '91, but $30k was out of my reach, I was only 3 years out of college.

I knew they were fast, but they had a ton of problems. That's what I was getting at. One of my friends back then had a National and a Syclone. He had so many issues with those engines and the rear end couldn't handle all of that power. I remember he had to replace the rear end twice in the year+ he owned it.

Sorry, back to the BMW...it's awesome! :wow:

Wondering if they cracked the block open, or if it was untouched.

edit: nevermind... Mahle forged pistons.
