1994 Eagle Talon ES review from North America
"As fun to drive as any Trans Am I've owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Battery died (140.00 for a Red Top).
Intermittent short in the door lights.
General comments?
Even though this car is not turbo charged and is an automatic, it performs nicely.
Having the high miles, I thought due to cylinder leakage that it would be a bit on the slow side, but she will rocket to 100mph very quickly and tops out at around 140 MPH. For the $4,000 I paid for the Talon it's worth every penny.
I haven't had any real problems with it.
There are a lot of after-market products for the car as well and I'm just now starting to soup up the car.
My suggestion, if you're looking to get the most bang for your buck, would be adding an under pulley system and a cold air intake.
