1997 Eagle Talon TSi review from North America
"Try a Talon TSi in the snow, it will blow you away"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The interior of the passenger door plastic kept breaking when left in direct sunlight. It would crack just below the air vent.
The pistons on the front brakes stuck on once and here in Canada it is hard to get parts, which makes it very expensive.
General comments?
This car is a rocket. It can take so many others off the line, especially in the rain with the all wheel drive.
It also takes the snow really well, I work on a ski hill and drive to work in howling blizzards, but I always make it.
