Love my 92 Talon Tsi AWD Turbo

1992 Eagle Talon TSi Turbo 2dr Hatchback AWD
After 12 years and 133,000
fun miles, it is still a great car to
drive! Regretfully, I'm trading it in
tomorrow. It is using a little oil
now but otherwise is still purring as
when it was new. It has a great
throaty sound when the turbo kicks in
and pushes you back in the seat. It
loves the back roads but really slices
down the freeway, too. I know I'm
going to … miss this car

1992 Eagle Talon TSi Turbo 2dr Hatchback AWD
I was told before I bought this car
that it is nothing but problems, but
then I found out that this is because
other DSM owners want you to think this
so they can buy it and have a 2nd DSM.
I have had mine for a few months now,
no problems at all. Not as fast as my
Z28, but just as much fun. AWD is fun
to play with from a stop or cornering
and the turbo noise and power … is
outstanding. I paid $2300 for mine in
Novemeber of 2002 with 66k miles and
with a K&N cone filter and aftermarket
UICP. Low 13 second car with less than
a $800 invested, you can't beat the
performance.

1992 Eagle Talon TSi Turbo 2dr Hatchback AWD
I bought the car w/1477 miles on the
odometer back in 11/92. While I think
the performance is very good,
reliability is an issue. I am
currently on my 3rd transfer case - the
first blew w/38,000 miles on it, the
second at 79,000 miles. I have the car
serviced regularly, use only synthetic
fluids, change oil every 3,000 miles
and all fluids every 24,000 so …
maintainace is not the issue.
