You may not want to go there.
 Personally, I think the 3gs are underpowered, overweight, ugly, and a travesty to the Mitsu name.....but thats just me

how can they put a v6 from a (nice at best) touring car. then they dont continue the awd and makee it heavier i dont think it was time for the eclipse to die but it is time for the lancer to run.

My brother has a 2k1 Eclipse and I really like it. It is suprisingly quick (im not the best judge of speed i drive a Ford POS) but it is quite enjoyable and fun. Also it handles pretty damn well.

To me the 3g is the drunk fat nasty girl that no one picks up at a bar/party until REALLY late at night. No one really wants to drive it, it looks bad sitting still/moving, and you'll never tell your friends you hit it/drove it.

You think thats quick , try a real car........1G......  I test drove one , just to see , back when they first came out. The GT is only fair acceleration wise , and the V6 refuses to rev freely , unlike the 4G63. Its also nose heavy and turns like a drunk elephant. The poor front tires are way overworked and underpaid. The AWD in the previous gens helped with balance a lot , thats the first thing I noticed missing in this car. And the absence of AWD certainly hurts trying decent launchs. The one I drove was not even LSD , so a one-tire-fire was all I could manage. Hopefully , if the Eclipse name lasts to a 4G generation , that Mitsu puts things back the way they should be. Unfortunately , they may not , because it might hurt Evo sales. But I for one would look forward to an AWD , 2-door , sports car , again. Not the sedans like we have now...........
