I used to work at Mitsu and my manager met the designer of the new eclipse, apparently you can drop the 4wd drivetrain in it from the endeavor without any mods. The hump in the middle is big enough to accomidate a driveshaft and exhaust already. And the rear assembly bolts up some how. If you were inclined to make it v6 awd autmatic that is. Would need a couple turbo's too though.

Very Nice looking coupe, i feel they did good with the refresh and the dual exh. does give 2 more hp lol. But it isnt bad. Now with the eclipse soon to probably be on the lancer platform, we might just see a slight lighter car with better performance numbers and good handling. I feel looks alone this car and the next will look good.
Mitsu is on a rise even tho sales have droped lately but they need to get the New Galant out and a new Eclipse out soon . I feel we will see alot come september on the future of both vehicles including a Colt state side. Just my thoughts.
