RE: SLOW
First of all retard, this is the TECH section, not general discussion. Even at that, this should be in the O/T section.
Why is his car so slow? Probably due to the fact that it has a 2.4? It's probably not much slower than your 96GT unless you have a PI swap.
Have you ever heard of Google.com? It's a pretty cool web site where you can actually search for usless information (such as this) and get answers.
So please, dont clutter forums with pointless questions about imports.

RE: SLOW
People on here take things very seriously. I understand your concern on being slow (which most eclipse's are) but next time post this in the O/T forum. For your answer the reason why it is so slow is the power to weight ratio. Its mainly the torque, if you have driven a V8 mustang fora while and then go to something with 100ft/lbs less of torque you are going to notice a difference. Also the gearing in those cars are different. Hopefully that helps you out some.
