It's a very sexy car. My friend owns that car and girls love it.

That car can go pretty fast too but lacks on the very high speed acceleration.

4 AM.. friend and I were on the hwy 400 going south. Both of us hit 200 km/h and tried pulling from there. I was in a Lexus with a V8.. and mine still hauled *** while the eclipse wasn't able to haul *** as well @ 200 km/h... However.. that was the GT model. The GT-S is probably a bit different.

Also turbo charging those things make them go ZOOOOOOOOOM

There's a higher engine model? I thought that the 200hp V6 was the top engine you could get on the Eclipse! Wow! With the GT already pushing $32k, what's a GT-S gonna cost?!?!?!

There is no GTS I worked at Mitsu. GT was the highest. Are you talkign about the Spyder? It had the V6 rated at 200hp....not whp though. They do have some nuts however.

I personally hate the new Eclipse, such a nice platform was ruined. The old 2nd and 1st gen all wheel drive turbo, GSX, is a nice car. Not to fast stock but around $3000 in mods and your running low 13s to high 12s. The Talons TSi AWD was nice too but sadly these cars are a thing of the past now.

In the past.. the GTS was not available but Mits has recently come out with the GTS and now it's available.. and yes.. it's available in CANADA too.. not only US.

The GT is V6 rated @ 200 hp.
The GTS is V6 rated @ 210 hp.

The 2000+ eclipse is a heavy load of crap.

The 97-99's were the best ever produced.... (thats not meantioning crankwalk however.....)
