Well let me start off that I SUCK at shifting. Well we started off at a light. me and him both lost traction but he got traction first and I was still pealing out and was winning beat him in first gear second gear then o forgot to shift into 3rd gear so I redlined it and he got in front of me by half a car then we had to slow down because we caught up with traffic. Ive only been driving stick for about a month now so if I was better im sure I would have won.

and what 1/4 mile times do the 2006 eclipse run

 

About 14 flat @ 100.

 

i thought it was closer to 15?

 

Not the V6, 276 hp or something. I have a magazine test at home somewhere. I was surprised to see a N/A Mitsubishi trapping that high.

 

yea they can give a 99-04 gt and 350Z a run for there money I heard... did alot of research, the only thing that's holding it back from beating the listed is the torque steer with the FWD peelage

 

Yeah, I still don't get why auto manufacturers are giving cars some ***** under the hood but still putting the drive wheels on the wrong end. What a waste.

 

meh.. all the sites i get from google are anywhere from 14.5-14.9. that's not to say it won't go 14.0. as we all know, the 99+ is rated at 14.2 but has dipped the 13s.

 

They are pretty darn fast + it has MIVEC which is similar to hondas v-tec only better from what a dealer told me when we were lookin' for a 05 lancer with mivec for my fiance. The dealer told me that it's better than v-tec but it kicks in at a lower RPM.

 

I have seen a few but have not gotten a chance to get my a** handed to me yet...

 

not to mention they get 30+ mpg when your driving it on the expressway (the speed limit I might add lol)
