@@CollectorCarFeed this is the best channel my number one you guys deserve so much more attention. The videos are hilarious and I’ve learned more than I knew before because of this channel.
@@CollectorCarFeed there def is for newbies. my dad used to do estimates on used car values so ive always known better when it comes to clapped silvias and such, but the hype can be blinding when ur new to the scene lol. stuff like this is good for the community
I've been told that the Automatic Talons were more desirable if you wanted big power out of these drivetrains. The motor would be less susceptible to crankwalk since there wasn't a clutch pushing up against the rotating assembly, specifically with the AWD's. Basically if you wanted a winning backyard drag car Talon, get an auto. That said, most guys I knew talking about "big power" also sometimes accidentally routed their 15 year old boost controllers up backwards, so.
The automatics are better because they hold vastly more power then the manuals with out anything done, 800hp on a stock auto is fine not going to hurt it.
Good video! I think it also depends on what region you plan on purchasing the car. Here in PA a good one goes for 12-18k. Rust is a huge issue here so people will pay a good amount of money to find one with little to no rust. I’m sure out in California or Arizona 8k is probably a good deal.
They were exported in low numbers from new to certain country's in Europe, which is why the mirrors, fenders and taillights are different then what the U.S. got and us guys in Canada got.
Honestly the M275 and mating transmission is one of the most reliable platforms. It’s really just the ABC system you have to worry about. A V12 twin turbo German sedan with close to 700ibs of torque for under 10k is a steal to some people.
4g63 IS interference, more than a few have been killed by neglected timing belts. Also rotted strut towers is a known issue on 2g's in particular, and while I'm sure it would indicate other rust it's entirely possible that the strut towers are the only thing rusted to the point of being compromised. In any case I'm glad I scooped up my rust free basketcase for $2.2k when they were still cheap.
You can still find them cheap, I bought a 96 tsi awd for $1700 running and driving. all brand new driveline and new HKS high power exhaust system on it as well. Never paid over 2k for a dsm yet and I've owned 30, you just not getting show cars.
I love my GSX, bought it in April 2022 non running, but only required a fuel pump + other stuff to get it back on the road, since then i've been daily driving it. Pulls hard and has no leaks, and if there is an issue that arises its usually something related to boost, so i had the money i'd switch over to FMIC w/ solid tubing so that its less prone to leaking from the couplers. other than that, very good. Only paid 3500 for mine nearly completely stock aside from transmission stuff that was done by the previous owner and the things that i've done to it this past year
Ive been thinking of buying this non running dsm. Ive always wanted a 2g and i really want something i can work on because the goal is for it to be a massive build. I dont want to make money or break even on it. I just want it to be mine.
Honestly I think you COULD scoop a GS-T/GSX for pocket lint if you really pay attention to FB/Ebay/CL, I'd love to get one and keep it stock with bro-off valve
I've owned 30 DSM's and until 3 weeks ago never paid more then $1500. Took awhile to get ones worth owning but now I've got a clean 98 tsi AWD, a texas 97 GST and a mint 1g talon awd with sub 100k miles on it. DSM's being said to be unrelable is a myth, never been stranded yet in a dsm. I just bought my new to me winter beater 96 awd talon for $1700 and drove it onto the trailer. Deals are out there, the people that moan about never finding good deals wont drive to get them or even look for them.
The video of that green rs was from the original owner…this guy just used it to try to sell what was an old show car that he clapped out by dailying it
I had an LX not long ago that I couldn't get to drive straight, so I'm a little soured on them, but Atlas had a Marauder also. Yeah we should probably do those
Oh man you should do the 1999-2004 Ford Mustang GT Manual Coupe's and see the prices on those. Some dumbasses fully believe that they are realistically worth about the same as the Cobra's from the same years
For $10k, I expect everything to be in working order and/or slightly faded (age). It must be able to be driven away and taken on a full tank of gas trip without issues for my $10k.
My Mescherschmitt runs way better than any Conquest or Starion I've ever had (yes I've had several including a rare Indigo Pearl Metallic Starion), but you've probably never even heard of it anyway
Would have involved having to make a whole string of new parts and tool another assembly line to make right hand drive versions. Then there's crash testing that has to be done, emissions etc etc. The cost would have been far more then what it would have been worth for such a tiny market. Also why other right hand drive countries never got them. I'm shocked austrailia even got the mk2 supra honestly, toyota had to spend piles on designing and engine that made it threw aussie emissions. while everywhere else got the 5m-ge you guys got the even more anemic 5me engine.
As a new person to car comunity i think i can learn somethink about car value so thank you
I HOPE there's something to take away from these but sometimes idk

@@CollectorCarFeed all i got was that netgear knows about gundam
i love this series. please continue. this series has extreme potential.
cars against humanity is great too!
I'm disappointed by the lack of Lil Jon and the Eastside Boys in this video
Here's my favorite version: czcams.com/video/3ho4fzHritY/video.html
theres an eclipse near me with 6 different colours and 4 different rims, fire build
Harlequin wheels

I'm Commander Puchii and this is my favorite podcast on the Citadel.
A nice red manual gsx with 120k miles just sold for 40k on BAT. Good ones have become outrageous
Just got interested in cars recently, and these really help inform what to look for in ads for cars.
Oh shit the Brian Earl Spilner episiode!
Sounds like a serial killer name

That's pretty decent! In Europe GS-Ts/GSXs starts from about 10k+ :D
Honestly had no idea they sold them outside north america, didn't you guys get the Evo in those years?
@@CollectorCarFeed Yes, we do :D I think, those Eclipses were imported from US long time ago!
@@CollectorCarFeed as an european, ive been looking at gs's, they are 3-6k here, gsts are more and there are 2 gsx's in the whole country😂
They were exported in low numbers from new to certain country's in Europe, which is why the mirrors, fenders and taillights are different then what the U.S. got and us guys in Canada got.
I’m tellling you pleaseeee do 3000gt
Did Supra, did FD RX-7, did Z32 300ZX, need to round out the old '90s JDM halo set with the 3000GT
The automatic GSX is rare they use to go for insane money
Sold my eclipse the beginning of the year :(
You guys should do an episode on the W215, W220 Mercedes CL 600 / S600 / CL/S65.. over 500HP you can find for sometimes under 10 grand or way less. :D
That sounds like the #1 way to lose ten grand real quick, but... hmm
Pretty sure the first Hoovie's Garage video I ever saw was his SL600

Popping in to say I loved the vid! Just picked up a new 2022 GR 86 and it's fun to watch you guys laugh at the poors🤣 /s

All good info and that SUCKS they made an interference four

I'm pretty sure the only way to know you "spun a bearing" is to look at the bearing. That's not some shit you just feel in the gas pedal.
Loved this livestream, glad I could pay $5 for you to roast my 240

I’d be interested to see you guys do videos on the other generations of eclipse
If we did it'd probably just be the 1G, and maybe the SUV
I'm so glad the base models are still cheap
Honestly I think you COULD scoop a GS-T/GSX for pocket lint if you really pay attention to FB/Ebay/CL, I'd love to get one and keep it stock with bro-off valve
@@CollectorCarFeed yup grab it and immediately send it out to get dry ice blasted. Clean as a whistle
I’d like to see more German or American cars rated on this channel
Do you think you guys could do a video on 06-13 Lexus IS250/350’s sometime in the future?
Absolutely, probably do the OG IS300 first though
11:12 I had to listen three times to ensure he didn't say "lowest in California." Then I saw the text.. 😅
I've owned 30 DSM's and until 3 weeks ago never paid more then $1500. Took awhile to get ones worth owning but now I've got a clean 98 tsi AWD, a texas 97 GST and a mint 1g talon awd with sub 100k miles on it.

Bruh why
Is it weird that I think the Eagle Talon TSi is the nicest version of the 2g?
Road atlas pisses me off
Edit:all yall piss me off cuz yall cant judge but especially atlas
Watch me judge these cars lmao
What’s the bump in the hood for I’ve always wonder that
Do Honda Accord Coupes next
I’ve pretty much given up my dreams of owning one of these as much as I love one of these I’d rather put money towards my dream car the z32 300zx
Well if you live close to central Canada I've got a eclipse gst spyder I'm looking to unload! first person with 4k can drive it away.
The second gen was the last time I liked the way the Eclipse looked. "Factory straight piped" 😂 no.
The video of that green rs was from the original owner…this guy just used it to try to sell what was an old show car that he clapped out by dailying it
It got gacked 😭
Yes the timing belt is what kills most these cars. A family member had a eagle and snapped 3 of them. Bent valves every tim
I know this is a weird one but can you guys do panthers (Aka town cars, grand marquis, and crown Victorias.)
I had an LX not long ago that I couldn't get to drive straight, so I'm a little soured on them, but Atlas had a Marauder also. Yeah we should probably do those
Oh man you should do the 1999-2004 Ford Mustang GT Manual Coupe's and see the prices on those. Some dumbasses fully believe that they are realistically worth about the same as the Cobra's from the same years
I'd love to do one on new edge, or maybe the S197 in the Coyote years
Oh God I was wondering when this would turn up
Immediately called it a Evo cope mobile god fucking dammit
This is just making me sad I haven't finished my car yet and I just want to drive it
Eat my uncentered pfp ass fuck this
4:23 please make a video like this
“Bootleg evos 🤓”
Yeah how could it be bootleg when it's the same manufacturer and the same engines... It's like calling a BRZ a bootleg 86... Makes no fucking sense.😂
For $10k, I expect everything to be in working order and/or slightly faded (age). It must be able to be driven away and taken on a full tank of gas trip without issues for my $10k.
CARSSSSS... and Bidsssss.
THHHHHIS
@@CollectorCarFeed If only I could Like more than once
FWIW y'all should do some IAAI/Copart videos.
One of the reasons I bought a 3rd gen, 2gs are clapped
That's why you don't go for the GSX or GST trims, they're all molested, you get a clean GS or RS with the 420a and you Evo swap it.
My 88 conquest has held up better than any of these dsm cars... Oh y'all probably don't know what that is ....
Yeah never heard of it 🙄
"I'm not like other car guys, I'm different."
I googled it. Seems like a strange thing to brag about but you do you man.
My Mescherschmitt runs way better than any Conquest or Starion I've ever had (yes I've had several including a rare Indigo Pearl Metallic Starion), but you've probably never even heard of it anyway
@@CCFPuchii you confused me sir..... What are you talking about?
Junk cars. But they were pretty cool in concept
4200$ fully built motor tho. 🤣
God why make a video of judging cars but know even know anything about them tf yet try to sound like they know about it
Hey, I got a question why are these cars not in Australia?
