1992 Eagle Talon Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Owners of the 1992 Eagle Talon generally love the car for its fun and engaging driving experience, often comparing it to a race car. The quick acceleration and excellent handling are highlights, with many feeling a strong connection to the vehicle. However, some drivers mention that maintenance can be expensive and that it may require frequent repairs. The car's interior is viewed as basic, and trunk space is limited, but owners appreciate the sporty design and turbocharged performance."
I owned this baby for 6 years. Drove it abour 90K miles. Did a lot of mods. Always been there for me.
May 27, 2008I love this car. It handles like a go cart and goes very, very fast. This car feels like a race car. The cockpit is wrapped around the driver, and you can tell this car is meant to be driven. It feels like you're in a jet fighter. You feel like the car is a part of you... You feel everything and all of your driver input causes an instant reaction. The handling is excellent, and it is very hard to get yourself into trouble in this car. The car is also kind of rare now, so it feels like you're driving something a little exclusive. This car still gets lots of compliments, and it's 15 years old! I would recommend these cars to anyone.
January 17, 2008I liked everything about this car or I wouldnt have kept it for 20 years.I really liked the way it handled in the winter on snow and ice.This is a sharp looking, good performance and I wouldnt be selling it now, if my physical allowed me to get in and out of it with no discomfort.

June 20, 2012It will blow most 8 cylinder cars off the road, still gets upper 20 mpg's on the highway, it is a tuners best friend, the handling is superb especially because its all-wheel drive. That also means I can put down a 1.7 second 60 foot time in a quarter while some cars are still pleading for traction.
May 19, 2009Do you remember when American car companies were turbocharging japanese engines? Do you remember the Plymouth Laser, Eagle Talon, or Mitsubishi Eclipse? I do- and that was the car to beat. This was also my favorite year in terms of performance. With a pretty solid aftermarket, you could make one of these little guys quite the nutty little machine for a minimal cost. They handled great, they were practical and they made big V8s look stupid. The 1992 DSMs ran a 1.9 inline-four that only pumped out 190mph. The All-Wheel-Drive version was great on the streets and track but it was the front wheel drive turbo that became the true track monster. For only $1500 and some simple work, a person could turn a quick car into something that could outrun Corvettes and 911s in the 1/4 mile. Then again, this wasn't a bad car to just own as a regular daily driver.
March 15, 2008I really loved this car, Handles great, great mileage, agressive looking, It performs really good with the low compression piston and 14psi on the 6 bolt block, It's a blast to hit second gear, Only downside is head room and trunk space, but this isn't a car to lug a lot of stuff that's for sure, Save that for your Big lincon or caddi or suv. Cost of ownership is decent if you can find one to revive like I did, the matinence is pretty high considering any car with a turbo is.
July 27, 2009Best sports car and performance for a relatively low price. This car is easy and cheap to modify and handles great. With the AWD it is the perfect car for any time of the year and in any situation. I love DSMs!
August 18, 2010I love my car. Even though it loves to eat transmissions. And gas. And all my money.
March 16, 2008The most fun car that I have owned so far. It's a quick little car that is very fun to drive. You can find these cars for a pretty affordable price, but prepare to drop some cash into it from past years of kids beating on it.
July 21, 2009Performance - strong, smooth powerband Build Quality - interior cheap because it's a DSM, motor is a tank Appearance - nothing special, make it inconspicuous Cost of Ownership - an empty wallet unites all DSM owners Fun Factor- This car was awesome, it got me hooked on boost and DSMs
