**AirMax95** · 08-20-2009, 11:22 AM

Has anyone modded this generation of the Eclipse?

**Sammich** · 08-20-2009, 11:23 AM

UM YEA...ASK JM..WHEN I WAS DOING MY LOWERING ON THE MAXIMA NI HILTON HEAD...WE SAW A NICELY KITTED ONE (AND I HATE BODY KITS) THAT WAS BOOSTED...DRIVEN BY A CHICK...I MUST ADMIT...I ALMOST CREAMED

**BKgen®** · 08-20-2009, 11:24 AM

Probably about the same amount of people who modded their New Beetles.

**13Bracer** · 08-20-2009, 11:34 AM

**Sammich** · 08-20-2009, 11:36 AM

**HypnoToad** · 08-20-2009, 01:19 PM

**Black4DrEK** · 08-20-2009, 01:21 PM

**Atlblkz06** · 08-20-2009, 01:24 PM

The 4 banger in that thing sounds extremely weird when starting up - a weird metal on metal scraping sound.

**nintendobratkat** · 08-20-2009, 01:34 PM

Mine still sounds fine. Maybe I'm lucky lol. Hope EVOs don't have that issue.

**swollix** · 08-20-2009, 04:11 PM

Eclipses just became girlier as they got newer. You never see any modded ones, because girls don't usually mod cars.

**Atlblkz06** · 08-20-2009, 04:20 PM

One of em was a vert. My god was that embarrassing...

**Elbow** · 08-20-2009, 05:16 PM

Nope, NOBODY.

I kind of like the pics of the modded ones, especially the first red one. If they were AWD that'd be sex.

Did they sell them?

**KevinT707** · 08-20-2009, 05:58 PM

I've driven the V6 one & it's pretty quick. TQ was crazy!

**2turbo4u** · 08-20-2009, 08:03 PM

Modded look good

**EX-Svic** · 08-20-2009, 08:05 PM

i dont like them stock at all but a bit modded this black one im feeling it

**Mr. Clean** · 08-20-2009, 08:11 PM

i had no idea. it's like seeing one of your teachers outside of school and they're hot.

**nintendobratkat** · 08-20-2009, 09:15 PM

Never sold but they made the concept back in 2005. You can look it up and see all the really nice stuff that was in the car. It's basically an EVO in eclipse skin.

**DynamicSound** · 08-20-2009, 09:19 PM

The only ones I have seen in GA that have been modded looked like crap.

i got to drive one as a rental. theyre shitty cars. i would mod a trash can around it and call it a day.

just sit in one and try reaching for the controls. gay car, theres a reason nobody buys these.

**Sammich** · 08-21-2009, 12:12 PM

TELL US HOW U REALLY FEEL

**RUFFIAN** · 08-21-2009, 12:22 PM

That red one at the top was built for the SEMA show and had a EVO 9 drivetrain swap.

**Atlblkz06** · 08-21-2009, 12:34 PM

There ya go , so the answer is yes? lol

Since you guys like concept cars so much this one is mitsu's new concept car. Supposedly supposed to bring the old eclipse lovers towards accepting the new eclipse. AWD Turbo Diesel ftw?

Everything you need is on the steering wheel except adjusting the subs (or at least it is in my car). You can flip between Satellite, CD, Radio Set 1, 2 & 3 as well as through stations, and tracks on the left control. CDs 1-6, presets and mp3 folders are changed from the right control which also adjusts the volume. When my bf returns with the car, I'll get pictures of it so you can see what I am talking about.

Actually I take that back, you still have to reach down near the shifter for the A/C.

Are the engines still shit? JW?

I don't consider it an eclipse b/c no turbo and no awd options. I'm swapping mine out for an EVO engine.

It's about as fast as my 02 SI was if you must know. The V6 is all I have heard complaints about for reliability if that's the question.

**eraser4g63** · 08-21-2009, 04:49 PM

There are a couple supercharged ones running around Georgia.
