I've been looking for a 1g awd for a few months now. There are no local cars for sale, but here are some that are withing 3 hours. Please let me know what you think.

Vehicle 1
1990 Talon TSI AWD
150K
Bone Stock
Tan, paint seems pretty glossy from pics
Only known problem is erratic cold idle
$2500

Vehicle 2
1990 Eclipse GSX
125K
Exhaust/Intake/IC piping
White, some clearcoat failure
Recently replaced tranny, says linkage needs to be adjusted because it wont go in first or reverse
Misfires, says the coil pack is in the car just needs to be installed
$1100

Vehicle 3
1991 Eclipse GSX
2k on rebuilt motor, tranny, turbo
FMIC
Blue, looks nice but hood and wing are faded
tranny pops out of first, but says u can drive it as long as you hold it in first (linkage needs to be adjusted)
engine vibrates over 4000rpm, possible motor mount?
$1500

Alright, the first car has been bid on so that is out. I think I am going to forget about all of them and just keep looking. AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! Thanks guys.

On a side note, there is a new ad on craigslist about a 90 GSX for sale. "The car has 128,XXX miles on it the car is basicaly stock all it has is a three inch exhaust and an hks blow off valve thats pretty much it. Great Interior, The Paint Job Is Ok better than most Talons out there, Turbo doesn't smoke on the car, Starts up with no problem, Im asking 3,500."

I'm not willing to spend $3500, more like $2500, but I doubt this person will go lower than $3000. What do you guys think?

^^^ Scratch that. After seeing pics I know where he got the car and it only cost $2000 b/c the compression was low. I give up.

Did you look in the classifieds on Tuners? I always see good cheap 1g's in NY, Maryland, NJ. Check it out over the next couple weeks, you will find something!
