The name of this car should be "Eagle Medallion", not "Eagle Medaillion". --ApolloBoy 05:07, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Successor?
The Renault/Eagle Medallion was NOT replaced by the Eagle Summit as the article said. The Eagle Summit was far closer in price, equipment, and size to the discontinued Renault Alliance/Encore and should be considered to be that model's replacement.
The Medallion was much closer in size to the Camry and Accord of the day, making it more of a midsize model, especially the wagon, which could carry 7 passengers and had a longer wheelbase. When looked at that way, the Medallion didn't really have a successor on the American market.
The Eagle Jazz concept car of 1994 might have been a spiritual replacement, as it slotted in between the Summit and Vision in size, had it been produced.Rhettro76 21:38, 23 March 2007 (UTC)Rhettro76
[edit] Adding Renault?
I just noticed that the article says that the Eagle Medallion was sold from 1988-89. It was, as an Eagle. But I don't see an article referring to the 1987 Renault Medallion. In that case, this should be an article about the Renault/Eagle Medallion, though it should probably keep its URL name, since it was an Eagle for two of the three seasons it was offered.
