Turbolide

Very bizarre. It was kind of disgusting to watch his face stretch into the grill of a car. If they ever made a live-action movie of it, which they won't, they would have to get David Cronenberg to direct it. I always wondered what would happen if he changed back to a teen while his friends were still inside of him. Would they be lodged inside his colon, would it kill turbo teen? And what if someone threw a glass of lukewarm water on him? What about the fact that his body temperature would be 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit? That's pretty hot, so wouldn't he always be a freakin' camaro? I forget, though, did he drink gasoline? I mean if he ingested gas as a car and later turned back into a teen, the gas would still be in his bloodstream so, wouldn't that kill him? I'm glad this show never caught on because you'd have little kids drinking unleaded to be like their hero, Turbo Teen. Shameful

This cartoon was a little inspired from Knight Rider. The story of a teenager who can into a car when he is hot, and turn back into human when he is cold. It's a shame it only lasted one season. I hope the cartoon network will pick up the show.

As someone who idetinifys as a car this really speaks to me on a personal level. I almost feel as if this show was made for me and im ashamed that i wasnt born when this show had aired. I cant explain just how much the main character and i relate were basically the same person as i also idenoty as a red car and seeing this person able to be who he is by turning into a car moves me to tears frequently. 10/10.

This was one wacky show... I had blocked it from my memory, as one does any major trauma- and then a co-worker of mine reminded me about it.

I don't remember too much of the premise- like the whys and hows. All I remember is that the lead character, looking like Marty McFly, would turn into a car- it may have been a Ranma type thing, where water affected the change. His face would distort and become the grille/headlights, his hands and feet would curl into tires.

Bad, bad show. On around the same time as Manimal, and the two are forever linked in my mind.

This show was a part of the 80's car revolution. It was about a teenager who would turn into a red sports car whenever he got hot. He could get hot from the temperature or even if he ate something hot. His feet and hands would become the tires, his eyes the headlights and so on. I actually think he was a convertible. He would turn back to a teen when he cooled back down, and that could happen due to the temperature or water.

LOL He was like a human transformer. I use to watch it like most 80's cartoons. This was kind of corny,but for some reason I remember it. Nothing else to say.
