Re: Potential Buy 1997 GSX

Other question I have is I know the current owner bought the eagle steering wheel from tkrperformance on here. And the pictures of the car when he bought it had talon side rails on the door. But had unpainted front and rear eclipse bumpers.

Hes since pulled the side rails off (which I will have to have the holes filled and the car painted) which I knew about.

But my concern is this. The vin he gave is for a 1997 eclipse. Amd I have never heard of anyone going from an eclipse to a talon look. Usually its the other way around.
Now I don't care if its a talon as it looks like an eclipse. My concern is if there is something else going on.

In recent years 2gb talons have become the ones everybody wants, so its becoming more and more common to convert them to talons. Not uncommon at all.
