If you want to be different.

This is the only RWD car Ford made with the 4.6 DOHC motor besides a Mustang. Very similar to the 99/01 Cobra motor. They can definitely be made into a great sleeper car.

If it's an '88 California car it would have come from the factory with MAF. That was the first year for MAF and it was only in California cars. In '89 all Mustangs had MAF.

But they're ugly and heavy.

That Eclipse looks good plus it's AWD. The only thing that bothers me is the sellers comment "and she's up and running again". This gives me the impression that he has had issues with it and has to keep fixing it and now that it's currently running he wants to dump it before something breaks again. Make sure you get the history from him and look it over really good.

Wow, that Eagle Talon costs less to insure than the 88 mustang. I also get a kick outa the fact that the eclipse cost $20 a month more to insure.

Kinda digg'n on the Talon. They're pretty slick, and the Mitsu motor is an extraordinary platform.

Stay away from that Lincoln ! They are prone to very expensive electronic air suspension problems.
