My buddy picked up a beast

my friends transmission on his 89 porsche 944 just gave out on him a little over a month ago so he's been looking for a new car ever since. Last night after work i jumped on my computer and began searching for him. His only needs were AWD descent gas mileage and some ballz. After spending only 20 minutes i found him the perfect car a 1995 eagle talon with a turbo timer, all the gauges, hks blow off valve, rims with new nexen tires, injen intake, and some crazy alarm i dont even remember wat it was. Has an updated turbo (not sure on the size yet) and the motor got a complete overhaul last year and got apr headstuds. Its only boosting a 15psi for now but this thing would leave my infiniti in the dust and is one of the cleanest talons i have ever seen. Well anyways heres some pics and get ready for a g35/talon photo shoot.








and dont worry those stupid colored interior pieces are my project for tomorrow since i've been painting so much lately

It's like the Totyota Matrix/ Pontiac Vibe... Dodge and Mitsubishi shared a lot of cars, parts and platforms. You actually see this a lot these days, only you don't realize it. (Benz and Dodge recently, now Toyota and Subaru)

Sweet...I had an Eagle Talon TSi. Drove it until the stock turbo finally gave out. The only thing I would be worried about is the previous owner beating that thing like a rented mule.
