06 eclipse
The SEMA show on ESPN said that the new Eclipse will have a 3.8 liter 6 cylinder engine producing approx 260 hp i think and you can get it with a 6 speed manual tranny

Re: 06 eclipse
wow. too bad the car looks like crap. literaly. like the big mitsubishi monster just took a squat, and out came the little 4g eclipse. and with the current financial state of the company, they too are along for the ride down the crapper. too bad, 'cause the vr-4's were really nice.

Re: 06 eclipse
the eclipse will look alot like the galant, just with 2 doors. so it will have the same engine and probably the same suspension parts

Re: Re: 06 eclipse
the 3.8 is the same engine from the 04 galants but it has mivec,it will be the same engine in the 06 raliart galnt if they come out with it .but the 4g eclipse will be heavyer then the 3g .the prob with the eclipse is that they keep making it heavyer.and i dont think they ever said any thing about a 6 speed in it,but i can find out if they plan to or not

No longer can we make fun of Ford's pathetic 6 cylinder Mustang Engine. The 05 has 210 hp and 240 lb/ft.
The auto show on ESPN is where they said about the 6 speed. But who knows

Re: 06 eclipse
yeah they upped the hp but also upped the weight. the added weight counteracts with the added hp

All i know is that if the body shape is the same as the concept e, the fuckin thing will look like a VW new beetle mixed with a fuckin 350z front end, and a world of bullshit hyped all around it... Who the fuck designed this thing... I'm an eclipse fan to the fullest but if they make this thing look the way it does, it will not sell... I dont care what kind of 3.8 they throw in it, it looks like shit... and it wont have my check book behind it...
