I think their eclipse sales are saving Mitsu more than the evo's.

Same here, saw alot at the dealership during summer time, but guess what....even now I havent seen one on the road ... yup none ...


didnt test drive it because the moment I sit in the seat..... I DONT LIKE IT.......


car looks huge but inside space is very small, and the view angle is strange... I tried to turn around my head and barely see anything .....


BAD DESIGN . try it out yourself, and youll know what I am talking about.

Yeah I test drove one. Not bad on power. Two words though TORQUE STEER. With the Fwd it is real bad. Plus I didn't like how you sit down in it so far. The A pillar blocks your vision. Not a bad car just not for me.

hmmm, do you think they will start stuffing the 4g63 in there since it might be out of the next evo. Would be sweet to have an AWD eclipse again with the 4g motor.

I've seen a few... ok so there are about 12 of them on our front lot right now. I haven't taken one out for a test drive yet but they seem nice. I wish they were turbo AWD like that ralli art. I'd buy one over an evo I think.

^over an EVO IX maybe, but the EVO X if it's as bad *** as I hope, might make you second guess that choice. The EVO X RalliArt version should be even more bad ***. This is all speculation though.

Sweet... esp. if it really is AWD. I think all eclipses are FWD though.
