mileage? is this your car?

DGmk3 02-02-2009 11:43 AM

Re: I want to trade my car for something else!
 
yes it is. and millage is 170k. the guy I got it from said it had a full rebuild at 120k. no proof though. I suspect he was telling the truth because of how tight the motor is.

Yeah 2g DSM's aren't going for near what they used to. Especially 2ga Talon's. A few years ago you could get $6-$8k out of them depending on condition and mods. Now getting $5k out of one is nearly impossible. I've got my 1995 Talon AWD for sale as well right now. 100k original, flawless interior/exterior, virgin wiring harness, GT3255E turbo, Garrett FMIC, brand new RSA 17" wheels and also brand new Bridgestone Blizzak tires, Eibach springs, 3" mandrel exhaust, etc, etc. I can't even get $5k out of it and it's seriously the cleanest Talon I've ever owned or seen in person. Runs perfect, boosts hard, and has zero issues. IDK how you're gonna get $4k for your high mileage stocker, but maybe they go for more where you are.

You can get a gst, tsi (even awd) around here for $2,500 cash money. Some are even taking lowball offers.

2g gsx's, especially fresh ones are still pretty high. I dont see how they hold their value but they do.

Dsm trader, modified car trader and craigslist are probably going to be your best bets in getting rid of it.

Craigslist!

Good god. It's like you completely overread my post.

Most of these guys like halfway reliable cars, not dsm's. If we wanted cars that spent their lives on jackstands, we'd all own dsm's. I ------- lived off top ramen, easy mac and tv dinners when i had mine. ----------er would NOT stop breaking. They cannot take a beating for ----. The engines are stout but the ecu's, sensors, suspension, electrical is crap. Oh, yeah. See crank walk. Walk crank walk. Doesn't happen often but it's a HUGE turnoff that people associate dsm with along with this acronym

D-oesn't
S-tart
M-oving


These cats rock honda because they're known for having parts galore (CHEAP PARTS GALORE). Try to go on craigslist and snooker some teenager out of mommy and daddies money. That is your best ------- bet and you know i'm right. I'm not bashing your car, it's just dsm's have this stigma about them in the tuning world and for good reason. In the world of mexicans, dumb white trash and girls, dsm's are godsend. Tack a turbo on to that and WOOOOOWEEEE!


Here's your add:

Eagle Talon TURBO f/s $4000 obo (lowballers welcome)

Perfect car for a student or daily driver. Great on gas. No mechanical problems or rust (sand that ---- down and primmer the ---- over it asap).

It's has a HUGE TURBO and an INTERCOOLER WITH LOUD BOV (this is where if your bov is circulated, you disconnect that pipe and vent it. I know, i know....but you're trying to sell this car, right?)

Motor is brand spanking new and built for boost.

If you want a fun car that will turn heads (it has a blow off valve that sounds cool) and that you can race and beat most anything out there this is your car.

Call me at ***-***-**** or send an email to *********@****.com


I'm also willing to trade for: *****************************************

Fill in the blanks, add your pictures and you're good to go.

I got rid of mine like that but said "TURBO KIT and many extras", made a retarded long parts list for every nut and bolt along with prices i paid and never sold it. I changed the add and just said "eclipse turbo f/s, fast" and it was gone. I took that turbo ---- off b/c i blew the hotside on my t25. Buyer didn't know that however I did it because I Can't start it up and have it smoking like a rasta for test drives. Then nobody would buy it. The look on the kids face when he paid some ass $200 to install the turbo kit must have been priceless. I wish i was there for it at start up to see all that joy turn into "I got fucked by karma" ;D


Yes, i'm an -------. Take advantage of the ignorant. People will do the same to you first chance they can get. It's a dog eat dog world. Be vague and sell the ----------er on craigslist.

Re: I want to trade my car for something else!
 
I've had a reliable modded DSM before. Went 5 years at 20psi and never missed a beat. The only problem was that I blew up a little coolant hose one winter, but that was a 2 minute fix. It was FWD though. The AWD are never reliable.
