So i pulled up at a red light tonight and there was some guy in a V6 eclipse next to me. He revved up some, so i returned it. I could tell he had exhaust work done(not just a big muffler, cuz his exhaust sounded pretty good). On green we both floored it, and for about half a second he was even, then he just started to fade away. When i let off around 70 he was a good 4 or so cars back. I thought it was gonna be a better race then that. Arnt they rated around 220hp? Im completely stock...

--I cant type

 

Was it the new style? if so they have 260 hp.....good kill

 

If it was the brand new body style, it was either a sh*tty driver, automatic, 4 cylinder or your a good driver. The manual v6's run mid 14's stock, so either way nice kill.

 

Nice kill. Glad to see a 5.0 give out a beating.

 

it had to be the '00-'05 body style.....a new one would have given u a better run, if not beat you(they have 265hp), unless the driver completely sucked...which IS possible. nice to see a fellow 5.0'er chalk one up on the win board.

 

my gf has one of the new 06 gt eclipse's. her's is an auto but her fastest time is a 15.1 at 90 the fastest stock time ive seen for a 5 speed is 14.7 it shouldlve gave u a bettter run driver must of been a dumbass lol good kill though

 

Feels good to beat a 27 grand car new car in a car thats damn near 20 years old huh. Love them 5 liters, I'm thinking of buying one so me and my son will have something to play with. nice kill!
