Looks good! Even tho I don't like orange, but everybody has their own taste, I hope he takes good care of it! BTW just to give you a heads up, This should be posted in the Car Pics Forum.

Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

As long as he doesnt drive like a dumbass nothing is going to happen. Cops my stare at him as he drives by, but if he isnt doing anything illegal nothing is going to happen. If he is, well then he deserves the attention
Not trying to argue here, but people always make teenagers out to be the worst drivers and EVERY one of them is going to do something stupid.
Anyway car definately is NOT my style, but if he likes it thats all that matters. $4000 is cheap for what looks to be a car in pretty good condition (other then the no paint on the bumpers thing, but thats not to expensive to get done).

When I was in HS my black del Sol got beat to shit, but that was because the guy who parked his big ass truck next to my car didn't like me, and my senior year we had assigned parking spots. The worst one was when I WATCHED him open his door into my window (lowered del Sol vs lifted dodge ram), look at it, pull the door back, then open it HARDER, shattering my window. Yeah after that one he had to park at the very back of the parking lot for the rest of the school year or the principal threatened to have his truck towed and his parking priviledge revoked. Car was fine after he stopped parking next to me
But def. tell your son to just watch himself. High schoolers are easily jealous and can be hot tempered.

97 gst spyder that i worked all summer to save up a downpayment for. I bought my own shitI'm wondering what you where driving at the ago of 16?
nice...wish i had you as a father! Does he get the girl too?
lol same!!! car is kinda flashy but i guess it floats his boat.
man ken is a kewl guy met him awhile back mad respect for the man.and atleast his kid buying his own shi unlike some spoiled brats tat get it for free and dont appreciate it cause hey it was free.
say that on here and i say your a fuckin asscrak. let the kid learn a lesson . everyone did. no one went straight to clean/ jdm lookin cars they had rice/rough patchs . but ya screw u yokota. always rippin on honda. god u are a flamer.
^^
All your posts suck.
Yeah damn, most 2g's are fucked up. Its rare you see a clean 2g turbo awd anymore.
not to be an asshole or anything, but you or your son better save up for a tranny. Also i think you should ditch the lambo door idea and use it for something else.
SHOW THE MAN SOME RESPECT. DON'T TELL ME ANY OF YOU DICKS WOULDN'T WANT THAT AT 16... MY CAR AT 16 WAS A TAN/TAN FORD TEMPO
NICE RIDE FOR A HIGHSCHOOL, JUST KEEP A CLOSE EYE SO HE DOESN'T DO ANYTHING DUMB IN IT
That Eclipse is one ugly car. I wouldn't have bought it. And I agree with one of the posters that he will probably say it's his show car when he actually bought it already as a show car that someone else had done. Nope. Thumbs down from me. Later, QD.

whatever
i can see people are still hating in here. opinions are one thing. if you dont like it fine. to each his own. and as far as being his show car, we are redoing it plus adding alot of new stuff to it. thanks for all the comments good and bad. plus all the tips we appreciate.
i just wonder why everyone hates it. i see alotof cars like this at the shows with crowds of people looking at them but this one doesnt cut it. oh well who cares. it didnt cost anyone on here a dime so all you have to do is look at it when he pulls up beside you at a show or meet. i know there was a 97 at tunerfest almost the same color scheme and all that was getting alot of looks. but maybe this one doesnt deserve to be driven, maybe we should just crush it and put it out of its misery. lol! not! we will see yall around. peace.
You kind of made no sense there, dude. You ask for opinions, yet when ones you don't like are made, you call us "haters" and then say that it's fine if we don't like it. Which is it? Are the opinions ok or not necessary(even when you asked)? Later, QD.

lol
stretch i wasnt referring to you specifically. i asked for comments good and bad just didnt expect sopme of the ones we have gotten. its all good. all that matters is he likes it and has to drive it. i was just saying that i dont understand why so many didnt like it. if you got offended im sorry. not intended. all comments are welcome. good or bad. just dont get nasty with them cause my kid does see this please.
Understood
Very true. One of the deals is, though, is that a lot of people(teens, mostly) buy car that's already been modified and then show it off as their car. Technically(if it's paid off) it is their car, but the modifications aren't "theirs." See where I'm coming from? The majority of the people that are, or get into, this hobby, start from scratch and do not buy cars already done. That's where a lot of resentment comes in. The person didn't "put in work" like the guy that has dumped money and sweat has.
Most of that reason falls into the above quoted response.
I wasn't offended...just curious. Later, QD.

Well said. +1

i think its really funny tat most ppl here tat hate on here cant even afford a car and most ppl drive ugly a** rides.but lol they still on here talking sh**.all i can say is very nice ride for a 1st car.
Just to elaborate a little. Its not only the fact that someone put the mods on the car on their dime. Its the fact that it is someone elses idea and concept. Nothing wrong with starting with a car like that but I think most people would agree it needs to be re-worked so that it is your sons idea. Removing all the decals, new kit, wheels, and paint would be a huge step in the right direction of making it his car. Good luck with the project.
What? Lolol. Later, QD.

Overall not my cup of tea...but for a 16 year old Definitly a nice car. They are right though. you need to put in your own Idea's and make it your own car. Like they said, body kit and wheels are a HUGE step...it would re work the image of the car...maybe go 1 color...like a solid orange. or black or something different. do a tranny swap etc. But overall I woulda loved to start with a car like that at 16. Just be safe driving it and dont fuck up trying to show off....its not worth it dude...I got too many tickets and 1 nasty accident in highschool and I had a 97 mustang v6 5speed....not fast....you can speed in anything...so just treat the car with respect and it will do the same for you...
I like it, Look foward to seeing the new paint scheme.

LOL- you're car doesn't look like you've poured a bunch of $$ into (although I know you have) however this might be the reason why you've had good luck and no one has disrespected your car (even by accidentaly making dents in it)
yeah, a first car at 16- I'm sure he'll be a perfect angel and always drive perfect
sure thing
I say it looks like a "sports car" because its not an everyday stock eclipse.

im sure the kid will behave, especially since he races go karts and such, probrably woulndt find much of a thrill speeiding in that car over the go kart races.
He is too young to guide him in the ricer fast and furious way.
"If you want peace, prepare for war"
I hope a good ass security system is in your son's plans for the car, if it doesn't have one. There are too many thieves out there. Also, you should teach him if he doesn't know how to do the basic maintenence stuff.
So any eclipse with cosmetic modifications make them look like a "sports car" under your definition? Guess Buford Highway is littered with "sports cars" everywhere, eh?
