1995 Eagle Talon TSi AWD review from North America
"Great handling car, too expensive to repair and maintain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So many things have gone wrong with my car that I can't remember half of them.
Changed 3 out of 4 bearings.
Changed ball joints ($1800.00).
Changed timing belt & water pump.
Had to get the fuel system cleaned out.
Changed the oil light sensor.
In total I have spent over $7000.00 repairing this crappy car.
General comments?
I love the how the car handles & drives. It is comfortable & fast.
After 6 years it is still an exotic looking car. Would never buy one again but I can't seem to get rid of it because I am addicted to the ALL WHEEL DRIVE (handles great in winter). I feel like the car was made for me because it suits me perfectly the way it drives & looks. Too bad I'm broke because of it
