eagle brochuresThe Eagle was originally a vehicle that was designed and built by American Motors (AMC). The Eagle was out of the ordinary for AMC and it had a broader appeal. In 1980 AMC introduced the Eagle to the market which was the first four-wheel-drive car in the U.S. that did fairly well until Chrysler purchased AMC in 1987. Eagle then became a spinoff of Chrysler in 1988 to complete with the Saturn brand from GM. The Eagle Vision and the sporty Eagle Talon sold respectable numbers. However the brand was short lived before Chrysler discontinued the brand in 1999. Eagle brochures were never available in abundant supply.

The Eagle brand first came to being when the Eagle Premier and the Eagle Medallion both designed by AMC and their partner Renault were introduced to the market. Later the rest of the Eagle cars were simply re-badged Chrysler and Mitsubishi cars (part of Chrysler). The Eagle brand never really took off with the public as a stand-alone brand from Chrysler.

The Eagle Talon was NOT comparable to the Dodge Intrepid or Chrysler Concorde, that would be the Eagle Vision. The Talon was the same as the Plymouth Laser and Mitsubishi Eclipse.
