Overview & Reviews

A cool new sports coupe is offered through Eagle: it's called the Talon. Available with a turbo or normally aspirated engine, this little rocket redefines the inexpensive sports coupe. Available all-wheel drive and 190-horsepower distinguish the Talon from nearly everything else in this segment.

  1990 Basic Eagle Talon Review - 1990 Eagle Talon
  By pt_crusier - August 29 - 9:20 pm

  Purchased new in 1990, still own and only 15,000 miles on it, styling ahead of its time, my Batmobile cockpit. Black cherry with a black top. Love driving it real good cruiser. Only issues I have had with it is a $800 dollar clutch pedal replacement, present have a soft clutch pedal hoping it is an easy fix. Spent most of its life so far as a garage queen, in good shape for the year with all the original parts and original tires. The base model had a lot of nice features for the $. The only thing I wish I had was air , very noisy with the windows down. The car is still a head turner after 20 years, sporty, sexy and fast looking, one hot little sports coupe.

  2009 still own my 1990 Eagle Talon - 1990 Eagle Talon
  By 1990 Basic Model - November 24 - 5:24 pm

  Purchased mine new to replace a Pontiac Sunbird hatchback. Talon was ahead of its time, a real head turner, great styling inside and out. wrap around angled cockpit gave you the feeling you were driving the Batmobile. Everything feel soild- you can hear the thunk when you close the doors. The two tone colors (mine is black cherry body & black top)was available in the Talon and the Eclipse. Mine ended up being a garage queen, cause I didnt want to get it all nicked up being outside. It presently has ( from 1990-2009) less than 15,000 miles. The back seat foot area is real small, making it feel more like the sports car it really is, a smaller muscle car than those of the 70s-80s.

  Tampa Club DSM Review - 1990 Eagle Talon
  By Cory - November 10 - 2:42 am

  Ive been building DSMs for three years now and my current 90 Talon has been, by far, my favorite build. This is not a consequence of superior build, but rather the availability of time and money to work on the project. Ive restored this Talon to like-new condition (full engine rebuild, interior refurbishment, etc.) and built the car to *hopefully* run high-twelve-second quarter miles. Incidentally, the project is entitled "Project Reliable" because it is intended to debunk the myth that DSMs are unreliable. I intend to prove that it is a matter of maintenance and build quality on the part of the owner, not the manufacturer, that determines the ultimate fate of any race-built vehicle.

  Woo Hoo! - 1990 Eagle Talon
  By davidscott - October 28 - 2:00 am

  Turbo, AWD, leather! A great sports car for a Canadian climate. With some modifications, this car would beat nearly anything on the road. Amazing handling in the snow. Very fun to drive an very reliable despite thrashing the car every time behind the wheel. Very easy to modify to increase hp. Sweet turbo whistle followed by huge power.

  Fun to be in, fast acceleration, and can easily be upgraded.

  178,000 miles and still has a load of ZIP!. Plus really decent fuel mileage, especially for the power it puts forth, Cmon 2Ls competing with 5.0 Fords! Word of warning though is for finding mechanics for anything really, everyone seems to not want to work on it in small towns, and when you do find a place that will... it will cost too much, so if you find one you like, check out the things you want first... ie:Air conditiong, etc...

  Love it - 1990 Eagle Talon
  By mleger - November 25 - 2:00 am

  Ive owned my Talon for 4 years now, and am really happy with the performance of the car, and its reliability. Its a ton of fun to drive in all weather conditions, and still looks good 14 years after it was first released. I have replaced the turbo, not an inexpensive thing to replace, but other than that, no other major repairs.
