No there not, not after 99. Eagle didnt make a newer version of the talon, whereas Mitsu kept going with the eclipse line. You are talking about the 2.0l turbo engine, which can be made fast very easlily.

Yea, and as a suggestion switch to his car and race with that - I'm guessing his A4 has a couple of impound strikes already. Better not risk it and get your car impounded by the cops. Also, don't forget that you'll need your bounty level to be pretty high before you can race the next guy.

My friend has a turbo 99' mustang cobra and got his nuts handed to him by an eagle talon both got stopped for racing and all the cops wanted to know was why the mustang lost.... if you really wanna race him take it to the strip or better yet a road corse cause thats the real reason to own german cars anyway....
