I just tend to see them on craiglist with blown engines and other issues like spark plugs welded themself into the block, is this from people trying to be fast and furious with a four cylinder? over revving and dogging the car out? or is this common. thanks everyone for you opinnion so far.
toyota motors are good. i dont see what the connection between that and an eclipse is though...

either way, mitsu = money pits
