1991 Eagle Talon TSi AWD review from North America
"This car is a performance machine, a very good buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The original alternator blew at 155,000 miles.
The original clutch is starting to show signs that it needs to be replaced.
The cruise control option was not functional when I first bought the car.
The computer had to be replaced at 156,000 miles.
General comments?
The car handles extremely well at high speed, and turns and rides very smoothly.
The turbo kicks in and the speed increase is very noticeable.
Driving the car in the winter is very pleasurable because of the all wheel drive.
All the original parts have held up very well, even after the excess of miles and abuse that they have taken.
