Performance- The inline six is a great engine, but its still not a racecar, It does
light four wheeling alright, but without 4 low or solid axles its not quite as
capable as I would like. The 4wd option is actually more of an AWD because
you can lock it in on the blacktop and it's not locked 50/50.
Build Quality- Engine and transmission were great, the body (from WI)
decintegrated after not long. The strut tower rusted off the body.
Appearance- Its a love it hate it kind of car..... I tend to love them
Cost of ownership- It got decent mileage, and parts were reasonably priced.

For it's time, the AMC Eagle was ahead of its time. The 4WD drive train will get you
home in any weather. It's design was of the 80's era, with comfortable seats.
However the optional vinyl top caused moisture buildup and caused rust on the
roofs of many cars, including mine.Oct 03, 2010

It is the first cross over, first car to have full time 4x4, it is 25 years old so obviously it is built solid, got a 4.2 straight six with great torque. Car almost saved AMC from chryslers death grip.Dec 03, 2009

The Eagle is a fairly simple reliable car, the four wheel drive makes it easy to get to places ordinary cars won't go without the sacrifices one makes for a true off-roader. The vacuum system is )perhaps unnecessarily) complex, but rarely needs attention. The Carter carburetor has some known issues, but anyone with a bit of aptitude can fix those.Jun 27, 2009

84 Limited Wagon. Power everything. Very fun car to own. 4 wheel drive only worked if you could move the car. It you got stuck with out it you could not engage it, and if you got stuck with it, you were still stuck. Feb 09, 2008

Loves this car even though it was more of a play toy. The four wheel drive it in was excellent and driving it without the doors offroad was an absolute blast.Jan 06, 2008
