That's a Buick Grand National/T-Type emblem. Until some aftermarket companies started making Ford-looking Turbocharged emblems, that was all you could get for many years.

That's exactly what the one I saw looks like, minus the wing, and the exterior Roush badging. Same color and everything.

Is that a jy? It almost looks like a consignment yard or w/e.

I forget who, but somebody posted those pics a long time ago. Yes it's a junkyard.

Oh, I see. I didn't think that was stock, but it actually looks it.

Nope. My phone is from 2004-ish, and all it can do is dial and send text messages (which is pretty challenging for it, as half of my messages barely ever send). As long as my parents are covering my cell phone bill (10$ a month) while I'm in college, I don't need anything fancy. I just don't see that point in having internet and every other doohickey under the sun on my cell phone. I do wish I had a camera though...

So this is kind of funny...
 
I have pictures of the TC that I saw in Brooksville a few days ago, just emailed to me by a friend of the current owner.

Look familiar?
 
It's the same car cougarman posted, even the same pics. The car has been repainted, and I guess the new owner opted to take the external Roush badging off (why?!?). 
 
I'll get pictures of how the car looks now as soon as I can.
