Default Eagle Talon tsi vs. Mitsubishi Eclipse gsx

I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me out with this. I am debating whether I should save up money forever to try to afford a GSX or just to buy a TSI. I looked at all the things on the both of them and they both are the same in my eyes ecept for the price. Which one do you guys think is the better out of the two?

I like Eagle over the Mitsubishi, but to my advantage Eagle yields a lower market value... weird... I think the looks of the Talons are better then the Eclipses. most people agree with me but each to their own.

Why do you say that 90-91 talons are better than the rest. The talons look exectly the same as the eclipse's. Are the motors set up the same? I know that this might be a stupid question. oh well

they are the same car in essence.... just taillights... and emblems and few minor ground FX changes. but Talons are better.... no half breed 92s.... oh and 90-91 are pop up headlight style, make for better aerodynamics and just look better.. plus they all came with better motors then the 93+ ones. long live the popups!
