1991 Eagle Talon TSi review from Germany
"A very useful high performance car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The engine had to be replaced (rebuilt) after 120,000 miles.
The seats faded much over 100,000 miles.
I got the transmission replaced after 130,000 miles.
I replaced the head gasket 1 time after 130,000 miles.
Everything else held up perfectly like it should.
I only changed 1 light bulb on the whole entire car after 10 years if hard usage!
General comments?
I have been racing a serious amount of people since I had this car, and I only lost only 1 race, which was a 1997 Pontiac Firebird, and at the time my turbo was at advanced age.
I put awe on some people's faces from such great performance.
This car is seriously a package that has astonishment written all over it.
