sounds fun...nice kill...its more fun, however, when they make a big deal of it before hand ex: shaking head...taunting...calling your car ****....and then let off 1/2way through 3rd gear

they look alot better than the girly teenie bopper model before it.... I would say this is a pretty decent car considering the most powerful model before it was a turboed GSX which is AWD and put a whopping 210HP/240lbs to the wheels and pulled 14.8's-low 15's in the 1/4.... keep in mind it's pulling 14.0-14.5 N/A on a FWD ****box almost every run... if they gave it a big snail and let it graduate with AWD honors I think it would definitely be beastly
The 210hp rating is on 8psi, that's childs play, all it takes is a manual boost controller to surpass the new gt's.

I run 18-20psi day in, day out on a t3/t4, not to mention it's on 150k+ miles, don't forget these motors are TOUGH.

I used to think these things were ugly as crap also, but they are growing on me. The Eclipse body style gets better every time IMO. Apparently I'm the only one who likes these new ones
