That's one stuffed Jimmy.
I almost bought a AWD Talon a few years ago. Actually put a deposit on it before my wife broke a boom over my shoulders and talked some sense into me. Was too much money for my means at the time as I was just heading back to university. They're nice cars though. It's good to see someone taking care of one. |
Ive always loved Talons too. TSi Talons are fast little cars stock, nevermind modded.
I saw a black on black on black heavily modded Talon or Eclipse hang an absolute spanking on a street bike one night and have loved them ever since. He had the bike off the line and it just got worse as they sped up. May have only been a 600 bike but still... I swear that car jumped into 2nd gear across that first intersection... I also got a real good laugh out of the DSM meme you have on it. Its funny cause its true. And right now my Blazer is sitting all cozy rammed into a storage unit with all my stuff. Its got the back stuffed full of its own parts as well. |
