My first car was a 91 1g talon TSI AWD 6 bolt. TONS of fun to work on and drive. but with any dsm, I spent more time working on it than driving. I like the look of the 2g better, but I think the 2g eclipse's look way better still. They're pretty cheap and cheap to work on so they're a good project. Just expect to spend a lot of time working on it.
Well, what are some of the most well known problems with the DSM's? The 2G Talons seem rarer than VX's. Only 3 Automatics and 13 total on Autotrader in the USA. How much cash would it take to swap an auto into one of the Manuals do you think. I don't want a stick.
