I am only the 3rd owner and limited mods. Low Miles, bought it with 68,000 and now it is 91,734. Mobil 1 it's entire life except a few times used Royal Purple. It has been a smoke free car it's entire life. A lady in Colorado owned it for a short time then the guys I bought from worked for a dealer near Loveland Co and had put a search out for this one until he finally found this option set. He sold it to me due to small house/garage and a baby on the way. He didn't do any mods and kept it in detailed condition. I have seasonal driven the car and only put basic mods into her. I have owned the car since 2005 I believe. I had searched for about 2 years before I found an unmolested car with these options. One look and I was in love with this rare beauty. I never raced her other than some spirited driving on rare occasion.

Needs:
front brakes, valve cover gasket, clutch (still drives fine), drivers door handle/lock adjusted, loving safe home with shelter

The hood has some oxidation not shown in the pics.

I am pulling it out of storage today and live in St Cloud, MN. I do not have tabs and insurance on it this year so you would need to come to St Cloud to look at it. I daily drove except winters until 2010. Only driven a few times since and parked in garage.

I can get current ones after I pull it out of storage probably tonight.
It has 91,734 miles on her.
I added location info to main post. I live in St Cloud, MN and I do not have tabs and insurance on her yet. Only storage insurance.

Got it pulled out of storage, uncovered and started her up. Popped right off! God I missed this car. These are just crappy cell pics but I won't be home until tomorrow night to upload better ones and I was asked to post the engine bay and show current condition.

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

I really hope that car is going to a good owner! Was a super clean car and very easy on the eyes!!

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

I'm am in love, really fast sale. I wouldn't of expected it to last long.

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

Nice ride, I believed I seen your car at gmc dealership. Jw you traded?

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

i wanted this :(

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

^ Its for sale still, check craigslist I thinking their asking $6995 at GMC dealership.

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

I can't believe you only gave it a couple days before you traded it in... Super nice car and now its 1k more then you asked for it... I hope they gave you the 6k you were asking for.

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

I wonder what he traded in for?

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

Yes I sadly traded it in :( and yes I took a crappy offer but got a really good deal on a new vehicle for my wife. I think it was easier this way for me as I really was depressed about letting this go. I will always regret not keeping the Talon no matter the price. Would have liked to have more time to go private sale but needed to start this chapter of my life.

Now I will dream about the next car to buy for fun. I think an Evo would be a nice family car ;) Thanks to all who helped me with the Talon over the years.

Oh yeah, underbid the shit out of the asking price from the dealer if its still there.

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

If you don't mind me asking what did you get for trade in?

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

$3200 oh and they tossed all the receipts and history I left with the car. The manager is a dick but the rest were nice to work with there. I kept the plates at least for the memories.

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

WTF

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

Don't bitch, it was here for sale, if you didn't jump on it right away, you're shit out of luck. I hate when people say "I would've bought it", but never do. Wow, $3200 is way cheap, but that's about right for a trade in.

Re: 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD FS - Rare & Smoke Free
 

Brian, I'm glad you are happy with the the new car and how it worked out for you. Hopefully, you enjoyed the dsm when you had it! Congrats on moving on to new horizons!
