Default Need your Input!!!

Okay guys, I am planning to buy another car for winter driving and another potential project car. I was thinking something like Talon AWD Turbo (aka Eclipse in the States). I don't want another Honda/Acura, don't get me wrong Honda's the BOMB but I think it's time for something different. However, I've heard that Talons/eclipse are not that reliable. I don't want to buy a car that will break down on me every couple of months. I need your guys input on this, what do you suggest???

a friend of mine has worked on a lot of those cars and he would tell you to stay away from them. he said it seams like there is always something that has to be fixed. but when they run well they are quick....
