1990 Eagle Talon TSi review from North America
"A very sharp package that will never fail to impress"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The second gear synchro is a little worn, but not bothersome yet.
General comments?
This car was VERY well maintained and drives and looks like it has 150,000 kilometers on it.
Brand new timing belt (if you do not know when it was changed last, HAVE IT CHECKED)
Eibach springs (2" drop) and KYB struts, rides surprisingly well, and has absolutely amazing handling.
I have owned two 5.0L Mustangs and will never buy one again. This car is just as fast and gets almost twice the gas mileage! Plus it looks better. I still miss the V8 torque and sound though.
