1990 Eagle Talon TSI AWD review from North America
"A great buy for someone who is handy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
- timing belt snapped off and broke the piece coving it
- exhaust manifold cracked
- transfer case blew
- boost problems
- grinding gears and tough shifts
- leather interior seats had major tears and rips
- rusted hood under the hood bra
- bad battery terminals.
General comments?
This car when done right and all fixed runs quick and handles great
currently swapping to a 7bolt 1g motor with reinforced/after market parts and a full rebuild
overall good condition for a car that cost $900.
