I can't forget the '07-'10 Pontiac Solstice GXP and the mate, Saturn Sky Redline, along with the Opel GT and the Daewoo mates, all made in Delaware. The same timeframe of Cobalts some had superchargers and some had turbos, depending on the transmission choice.
Here's LadyT's 350hp 2.0L Solstice GXP:

And I had an '84 Dodge Laser with a 2.2 turbo engine. A real screamer for a 4 banger of the times.

To follow up on Space's 87 Turbo Coupe, here's one of my favorite cars ... 1989-1995 Thunderbird Supercoupe. I owned one of these and it was one of the most fun cars to drive.

Also, for the really early car fans, how about a trip back to the depression years for the supercharged Auburn speedsters!

And my first car ... 1990 Ford Probe GT with a 2.2L turbo.
