1992 Eagle Talon ESi review from North America
"Turns heads and plenty of frowns, it's great!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
- Needed a new clutch.
- Grinding when changing to second gear.
- Continuous problems with windows and side mirror.
- New timing belt needed.
- Valve seal.
- Crack in the exhaust.
General comments?
It's fun to drive. Front wheel drive helps in the winter. Corners awesome, with the help of some good tires as well.
Doesn't like winter, battery drains quickly.
Is a real looker with the right cooler. Lots of looks, (lady with husband and children watching came over to say what a nice looking car).
Handles very good at high speed (over 200k/h).
