Which do people like better Talon's or Eclipse's

[workin_on_it]

for 1G, i love the 1Gb talons
for a 2g, i love the eclipses a$$ with the 97+ front bumber of a talon
but of course a 1G laser nt is obviousely the best.
haha

90-91 talons in black are my preference..although i had a 91 gsx in black that i liked a lot too.

i like the 95-96 talons better than the 95-96 eclipses, but the 97 talon front end reminds me of a pig snout, so i would prefer the 97+ eclipses.

not a big fan of the lasers styling..my 92 just didnt do it for me.

Talons all the way!

Well, in a away it kinda saves bandwitdh instead of say, starting a new identical thread. However, this thread really belongs in the hangout. Here, it's just a reason to boost your postcount. Ohh..lookie..up to 384 now!

I like the Talon's better.

I live in Canada, and we only got Mitsubishi last year. People have imported 2g eclipses, but it's mostly Talons up here. I like the look of my 1g Talon the best, of course because it's mine.

 

[GSXTCY]

97-99 Eclipses
90-94 Talon

Let's see:

Cheaper insurance. If you have a 2g Talon and you take the stock spoiler off it has a very Audiish look to it, and the 1g Talon 92-94 has the uniquely better side skirt pieces.

Talon all the way.

BTW....people keep talking about about Eagle. . You do realize:

Eagle is to Chrysler as Lexus is to Toyota. It's a different name to mask the same company. So just the name is dead.

1st Gens i like talons way more, 2nd gen id say eclipse unless ure going for a sleeper hehehehehe Talons make way better sleepers.

 

[99elicpsegirl]

always the eclipse!!

 

[DoriftoTSi]

Talon 1g, i actually like the tail lights not being all red.
Eclipse 2g, i like the front and rear bumper, very nice.

 

[2gtsifwd]

1g 92 Talon owns 6 bolt 4 bolt
2g 97-99 Eclipse is the best. Even though my sideskirts are better and the black roof rules.

 

[tlnpwr]

personally, i like the eclipse taillights, but im very happy with my talon.

 

[RipperXX]

I personaly think of it this way the 1G's are kinda like a Heavy weight boxer that is big tuff fast and ugly where as the 2G's are the Light weight boxer's that are more looks than brawn.

I like the styling on the 97+ Talon much better than the 97+ Eclipse. I just can't take that tacky aftermarket looking fake supra spoiler on the back of the car. Sorry guys, it's just not my thing at all. The 97+ Talon Owns...

It looks nothing like the Supra spoiler.

 

[SetH]

I think they're pretty similar, only the supra one is a little higher.

Bingo... The supra is a PIMP looking car and pulls that spoiler off easily, for some reason it just doesn't look right on the back of the GSX IMO.. Other then that it's a great car.

Ummm....aren't the 1G's lighter? And don't both cars have basically the same engine?

I do like the front end of the 2G Talons better, but that back end (in my humble opinion) is about as good looking as a train wreck. I like the idea that someone mentioned about painting the tail lights on the back. I bet that would improve it alot.

 

[InfiniteGSX]

I have a 95 GSX and I'm about to purchace a 91 Talon TSI AWD. I think Talons are nicer to a degree, I think 97+ Eclipses are nicer, but they are done over and over again. I want different year talon body parts on this TSI I'm getting!!!! I'll stab you in the heart with my TALON!

 

[Timshadie]

Talons just need bodykits to look good, Eclipses already look good

 

[Norb85]

Eclipses are too common. Just like civics. I'm sick of them. I plan on crushing any civic that gets in my way, and i'll do the same to any eclipse when i'm done with my car.

TALONS ROCK!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Leitnin]

i have two talons and would never take an eclipse over them. eclipses are way too overdone around here and they are all riced out beyond belief. all the talons i see are nice and clean. i have a 96esi and a 98tsiawd. i like the 96 front end better so i put in on my 98. looks cool 96 fron 98 spoiler. anyone wanna trade for my 98 front haha. talons are much more stand-outish

 

[MrPikolo]

1g laser, prefer pops ups
