I just traded my Talon TSI AWD 90 w/ 82000 miles on it for a
Honda Accord EX 93 w/ 19000 miles 100000 miles warranty. The difference,
including taxes, etc ….. was 10200 and some change.
I thought it was a great deal considering the honda is fully
loaded, power windows, locks, rear windows, power sunroof, abs, airbag,
and the long warranty compared to an Eagle already in a car accident,
windshield cracked in half, need paint job from scratches, transmission
almost gone [ 6 to 12 more months ], two rotors warped, the gear box needs
to be changed.
What do you guys think ? I really liked the Talon, it is a great
sports car, but once it breaks down and is out of warranty, it sucks,
the insurance set aside.

I think you should post this message _before_ your transcation. Not that I
think your trade-in is bad. But, what happen if you hear bad news from the
world? You will feel good? Just my two cents: commit to what you had done.
BTW, I like the Honda better. Honda has very good handling. Enjoy.
