"A great combination of style, performance, price, and convenience." - Car & Driver

"A TSi AWD is one the most appealing performance cars of its era. Acceleration, road-holding, and handling exceed those of many full-bore sports cars. As a bonus, the 5-speed manual shift is silky smooth in operation." - Consumer Guide





Following is information on my extremely rare, 1997 Eagle Talon Turbo all-wheel-drive, which I very regretably am forced to sell.

This one-of-a-kind, babied show-car has only 95,000 (mainly highway) kms, and is in show-room condition - ready for the collector or the enthusiast.






This top-model (TSi AWD) Eagle comes stock with an extremely well-built, high-performance 2.0L, 4 Cylinder DOHC-16V Turbo Engine.

Utilizing various aftermarket performance additions (a full list of which are below), including an aftermarket turbo that is even larger than stock, this Talon has a horse-power rating of over 240. Combine that amount of power with a 5 Speed manual transmission and one of the best all-wheel-drive systems in the industry, and you have an amazing sports car that offers exceptional performance and value year-round.

(If ultimate performance is your game, then you will be happy to hear that this Eagle Talon can be taken up to 280hp with as little as $500.00 invested into it, or 340+hp with only $1500.00 more!!)





Being a show-car and a highway cruiser, this vehicle has been meticulously taken care of. It has seen only two owners - both of whom assumed that they would be enjoying this car forever, and spared no expense in babying it every chance they got.

This Eagle Talon has spent the majority of it's days parked in a heated garage (out of sunlight and the elements). It has been barely winter driven and is always kept very clean (no rust, salt, dirt, tree sap, bugs, etc), with a full-body, professional hand wax at least twice a year (using only the best, 3-Stage "Mothers" wax). No dents, no scratches - truly nearly showroom quality.





The car has never been smoked in and has seen zero accidents.

There has never been less than 92 Octane fuel run through the tank (expect a fuel-range of 24-26 mpg in town, and 32-36 mpg on the highway).

All fluids are regularily changed (with only the highest quality replacements used), on an average of about three times more often than factory recommended intervals (yes, it was expensive and yes, it was overkill, but take it seriously when you read that this car has been babied).

Over $1000.00 worth of Sound Deadening Materials have been installed throughout the Talon - reducing road and engine noise on the highway to a whisper.

"You can tell it's a sports car by it's interior, with a driver-centered cockpit
providing a near-perfect driving position." - Edmunds Car Reviews

"For speed and acceleration, try out the Talon. It's fun, it's fast, it's even capable of handling icy roads, unlike the volume leading Ford Mustangs or Chevrolet Camaros. For a year-round daily driver, the TSi AWD is hard to beat." - Edmunds

"The Talon offers solid assembly quality and fine road manners. Mixing fun with frugality, this coupe ranks as one of the best around, especially the TSi AWD, where it becomes a great all-weather sports coupe." - Consumer Guide





I wish the future owner of this gorgeous, 1997 Eagle Talon to have as an enjoyable experience in owning and driving it as I have. I love my vehicles and spare no expense when it comes to them. 1997 to 1998 Eagle Talons are extremely rare, and this particular one is in mint condition. It is ready for you to drive away in, without need to worry about any maintenance responsibilites for a long, long time. This is a one-of-a-kind vehicle that I am confident you will thoroughly enjoy for a countless number of years.

All the best
