I made the mistake of buying a 95 Talon Tsi AWD for my first car at 16. I didn't know how to work on cars much other than oil and maybe spark plugs.

The thing with Turbo DSMs such as the talon and eclipse is they need a lot of care as they break down a lot. With the help of dsm forum and senior year classes for auto I was able to learn to rebuild engines, transmissions, turbos, etc and do the usual work on everything else.
