Thinking of buying, cannot decide...
I see now that many used EVO's are under $25,000 (US), typically not more than 50,000 miles. Currently I have two 1990 Talon Tsi's Awd. My original Talon is in great shape and I keep it looking that way.
I guess the big question is this: is the performance and quality of the EVO that much better than my old Talons? (which are great cars, but getting old and parts are getting somewhat rare (like axles).
Of course, when I get it, I'm going to want to mod it, so then why not just mod my old Talon?
I just don't know! Do you?

Drive one...I was just going through some old SCC magazines and they were talking about how to get Evo like handling out of a DSM and how they needed coilovers cause their susp travels sucks and some other misc pieces. The engine is tweaked a little more, the brakes are beefed way up from a 1st gen and the handling is night and day.
