Speaking of the 06 eclipse, I saw one out this past Friday, I was making a left turn after just spending 4 hours detailing my car, this dude pulled up in a silver 4th gen and started to star at my car. I guess he was amazed at how clean it is and also jealous that he doesn't have a 2g. But when he drove away, from far, the profile looks a lot like the 2g than the 3g.

I didn't know the 4th gens are out, but this dude was driving it, it did have manufacture plates on it though, I wanted to get out of the left turn lane and catch up with him, then this cop pulled up...

No. I talked to a couple of dealers to see if they had the literature on them, and none did. They aren't expected to be out until the end of the year.

You might be right, but I just can't think of any reason they would need to test the car at Champaign, IL, where we have nothing but corn fields and the University of Illinois, with the number 1 basketball team in the nation

Just thought I throw that in, haha

Re: New 20006 Eclipse looks like...

If i have the money i would deffently buy one 263hp isn't too bad.. 650 Watt Stero system, Rockford Fosgates, not bad. Exterior is so so, Interior looks sweet. Overall i'd rate the car a 7 out of 10.. it shits on the 3g, but still doesn't come close to the 2g.
