Amazing Car That Has So Much To Offer!

I've owned this car for over two years now and it's given me nothing but fun, reliable, stylish transportation! I get around 25 mpg and the car has given me zero reliability problems. It receives many compliments and the driving experience is so sweet, that when you arrive to your destination you hate to park the car! It's just that fun to drive!

Hard to Eclipse an Eclipse

This is an all around fun GT car. No, it's not a "sports car" like a Porsche, it's a GT car like a Lancia or Alpha Romeo. The car has excellent pick up and good cornering. The car can be pushed much harder than most drivers realize. As such, early body roll halts at .7 G's and then you can really feel the car dig in. The torque band is very broad, but if you push the rev's a little bit (4200 RPM's) the car definitely takes off.

Eclipse GT 5 sp mt

this was my first 5 sp mt car. it was a blast to drive for a first semi sports car. the handling was fantastic as well as the power (for what it is). a buddy of mine has the same car with not many major issues but i on the other hand got the lemon of all eclipses. bad belt bad motor mount bad tranny mount bad ebrake cable and many other things. before i sold it something would clunk and make the whole car feel as if it was about to fall into pieces but no one could figure out what it was so i had to sell the car and take a huge loss.
