slow?!??!?! wtf....Originally Posted by malfeas99
i like them also
eeewww not my style...
disgusting is the word to discribe, or disgrace
has anyone seen the commercial where the rx-7 bows to the new eclipse...lol riiiiiiight
if i had a rx7 id line up to it and see who would really bow down... i also thought that was funny. i actually went around looking at new cars the other day and stoped by and looked at the eclipse, i dont like them at all, no the inside of them. just my .02
ya that one gave me a good laugh
No turbo, no care. The wheel gap alone is enough to make it look like a 4x4. It is a girl car, no doubt about it.

im with him on that one
I like them for what they are. Obviously they are not going to be turboed and awd because mitsu doesn't want to compete with themselves (evo). It is the fastest production eclipse ever made. Looks are subjective, but I agree with the wheel gap coment, although I think the 2g dsms have a lot of wheel gap too....that is an easy fix. other wise I don't think they look that bad, just don;t like the grill (reminds me of a pontiac) but again, easy fix, I'm sure there will be some aftermarket bumpers with better looking grills.
ditto

No doubt, the girl next too me in Physics got one on her birthday.
This is my conversation with her:
Me: "Is it a V-6 or a four?"
Her: "Well I had 6 of my friends in the car that day so maybe a 7."
Me: "No, how many cylinders does it have?"
Her: "IDK, its red, but it has a big butt."
Me: "Like you?"
Her:"You freak, get the hell away form me!!!" LOL
*Edit:
I still think its a good car, wouldn't really buy one unless it was under $12,000 its wa better then the 3rd gen, but yet again furhter from the original and 2nd gen, i think they took 15 steps forward with the first, 20 with the second, then 25 steps back with the third, and 5 forward with this one.

exactly
What's up with the trend of making these new sport coupes so -heavy- anyways?
2006 Cadillac CTS-V
thats a nasty ass car. The 2nd gen was the best body style made for the eclipse. I miss my gst.
... cmon guys its unique... i kinda like it... the grill could be better tho. I aint gettin one, but as far as disgrace to eclipses... LOL look at the 3rd gen...thats the ugliest eclipse in history... the epitome of chick cars. And i know the are exceptionally well handling, but RX8's are super slow and
.. my cousin has one, and gets dusted by the average civic ricer (Ls/tec owner) on a daily basis. The two cars are pretty much evenly matched, even after the HUGE weight difference, like +400lbs to mitsubishi.
Eclipse
0 - 60 mph [secs] 5.8
0 - 100 mph [secs] 14.4
1/4 mile [secs at mph] 14.4 at 100.8
RX8
0 - 60 mph [secs] 5.9
0 - 100 mph [secs] 15.9
1/4 mile [secs at mph] 14.5 at 96
The RX-8 does not weigh ~3800lbs!
The Mitsu Eclipse GT is VERY heavy, believe it or not. The car is a step backwards for Mitsu, in my opinion.

cmon ruiner... u gotta be kidding me.
rx-8 3029 lbs
eclipse GT 3472 lbs. = mitsu + 400
anyways as far as the step backwards, I dont think so... well they already stopped the whole Vr4 thing.. but look they got the 4 bangin evo.. and this is infinitely better than that other eclipse.. (the one b4 this one) yeah sux that gsx is no more, but they ended that before... im just saying this one LOOKS good... i like the visuals... and it is "faster" than an rx8 bone stock, so its not a super-duper girl car... like the 3g
who said anything about an RX-8???

Ahhh.. I see, overlooked that one.
who gives a shit that car is fuckin gross!
i see them everyday since i work at a mitsubishi dealership...and they look nice in person depends on what color though...the inside is really big for a 2 door but they drive and handle like shit in my opinion
