'95 Eagle

Hey everyone

I was looking at a '95 Talon 5 speed today for $1,100 O.B.O.. It has no clutch or radio. Assuming the rest of the car is in good shape (as it appears to be- have yet to talk to owner and couldn't see the mileage), how much would you offer?

Just a little more info- car was marked up to $3,500 for a year or two and I just noticed it was dropped. I'm a little hesitant about buying a car that's been out and failed to sell for so long- but if I could get it cheap do you think it would be worth it? How much would I expect to pay for a new clutch to be put in at a shop?

I don't know anything about Eagle or Talon- so any info is appreciated.

Thanks a lot,

Mike

Re: '95 Eagle

"no clutch"...literally? If it's shot then consider the work to install another one. The price is right if that is all that is wrong w/ it but definitely do your homework 1st.

Re: '95 Eagle

I'm not sure but I don't believe it's AWD. What's the difference between ESI and TSI?

Will do... even though mine won't be pushing the mad power yet. Engine will be still be pretty new, BUT, the my swap may be coming sooner than later so she'll be all broken in and ready to go.
