New Eclipse Spyder

I was kinda hoping it be a hard top convertable, but it's still sexy.

^^^^x3. I was surprised too; but what's with the big rear ends of these cars? Able to pack more junk in the trunk or something?

It says it takes 19 seconds drop the top. Does that seem a little long to anyone else? They could have at least turbo charged THAT! Plus, i'm sure the curb weight went up another 1000lbs. Now she's sittin at 4k and NEEDS that 280 hp to do a 20sec 1/4 mile.

I'd like to see it up and down in person, but the side profile isn't too bad. I really don't like the new eclipse, but of the two, the convertible might actually look better. For some reason, I'm seeing some 350z convertible there. Maybe just me.
