Holy hell!! Awesome

Re: Time capsule
 

That is so cool!

Re: Time capsule
 

I've seen a few over the years, I think that's about what they were asking for the AWD ones. Very cool though, I'd love to have one.

Re: Time capsule
 

That thing looks crazy clean

Re: Time capsule
 

Damn. That would be sweet, but I'd want to mod it. LOL

Re: Time capsule
 

Master bushing set, fresh suspension, new belts & hoses...sounds like a great DD!

Re: Time capsule
 

Or throw some collector plates at it.

Re: Time capsule
 

I don't buy cars as collector pieces to sit and rarely be driven :)

Re: Time capsule
 

Depends on the car. I won't say this is a museum piece or anything, but it's low enough miles that I'd keep it to fair weather only.

Re: Time capsule
 

Texas :p

Re: Time capsule
 

Always fair weather! Unless ice storm. :D

Re: Time capsule
 

HAHA that's what the X is for, snow mode domination!!!

Re: Time capsule
 

Hell, I have collector plates on mine, doesn't mean you can't drive it.

Re: Time capsule
 

I bought my auto '94 Eagle Talon TSI AWD about 2-3 years ago with 22,000 original miles from the original owner. No mods, all original, garage kept, never driven in snow or rain. It's been my DD ever since though.

Re: Time capsule
 

How many miles on it now? And hows it looking after a few MN winters?

Re: Time capsule
 

If I found a low mileage one, I would tuck it away and drive it only once in a while. I wouldn't want to daily drive one of these things anymore, no matter how nice it is. But I'm old. :D

Re: Time capsule
 

It has approximately 46,424. I'm in the car right now warming it up lol.

After a few winters it's not bad. The finish on the rims took the most damage (salt damage).

Basic wear and tear. It's not as mint as when I first bought it but it's still cleaner and more original than most DSMs out there. When I bought it, it still had the new car smell. It was pretty crazy.

Re: Time capsule
 

Park it lol :)

Re: Time capsule
 

Cars are meant to be driven and I love driving mine.

Re: Time capsule
 

Right on, that's the whole point!

Re: Time capsule
 

Even the Fittipaldi Talon has like 30-some K on it now. Nothing wrong with driving a car. Also nothing wrong with keeping the rot off it, though, but it should be driven when chances arise.

Re: Time capsule
 

I should swing by and check it out. see how mint it actually is.

Re: Time capsule
 

A while back there was supposibly a black 1G with really low miles. Like 8-13k if I remember correctly. The paint wasn't original though and the guy wanted like $13k for it or something? I forget the details but it was local. I never checked it out though to confirm it. Low mileage DSMs come out once in a LONG time, and although suspicious sometimes, when you find a nice one, you keep it.
