Not an Evo but still a Mitsu

Dont post on here too much but I thought I would post some pics up of the car. Im building a 6-Bolt for it right now but that might change if I come across an Evo I like. Enjoy the pics and let me know what you think!

225/50/16. They are the widest tires I could fit on the wheel. I want to get the Rota P45R Flat Black w/ Red Lip but I dont know how those would fit on the car with the offset and how wide they are

Your Post

I like the this style Eclipse. I owned a 97 GS-T and loved it!! Till I had kids, then it had to go, haha. I was putting some money into mine and when the Evo 8 was rumored to come to the USA I immediately went to be put on a waiting list. I have not looked back since. I was running 300whp on my GST and it was a handful to say the least, but very fun to drive, very sleek, very stylin car. Always will be, some designs are timeless, the 96-99 Eclipse is one of them, especially the GST and GSX, just a bad *** car all around.
