Stevie Wonder appreciates the new eclipse more so than I ever could.

If any car should be on anabolic steroids, that's the one.

The EVO is based on the Lancer.
to requote you on this evo, not to mention the thing is a peice of crap...

the Evo is another generation of the DSM/Eclipse. If researched the evo uses an Eclipse motor with better timing/compression/etc...

I say the evo is a piece of crap because..it has crazy turbo lag thus my brother owns one...second i got killed by an M3...its highly overrated, but i do say it can turn those corners! The intake tube, well it sucks, it pops out now and then. Causing the car to die when in high boost! Nothing dealer can do but swap it for a new one! kinda G@Y!! but i still enjoy driving it! And i love it cause its super light! but yet a little to bouncey on the road..but hey that car is all in all great!!

Anyway. To dOmestIc_rIce. Is the evo crap or is it great ? ?

It is now more than obvious that your nothing more than a troll. Unless you have something new to add, besides your repetitive flaming remarks that you continue to use only to try to cause trouble, stay out of it and [sm=GrowUp.gif].

BTW Chrysler and mitsubishi remedied the problem w/ you beloved 63t motor and replacing it w/ a 2.4 srt-4 based (supposedly) in upcoming evos ...might be due to the fact that diamler designed a monstrously tunable engine. Of course mitsubishi might change engine a little bit...and supras are nice except for the fact that they are not all that...for the money it takes to tune one right and the cost of parts makes it ridiculous. Dodge went through the hassle to tune it for everybody else...and its cheaper...which in my book blows away the still going for 20,000 dollars and up SUPRAS that arent worth the time and the money of turning it into a race car.

lol, the evo is CRAP in powerband wise but great to drive and have fun..get my drift? Maybe not, the Evo has turbo lag, that kills the fnu already, but yet you have to love those tight turns. Still get it? maybe not, try driving one, you'll see, i drove my borothers for one week, and i hated the lag but loved the turns. I gased it in first, DAMN it picked up, but WOW in second gear, ewwww it took kinda long to pick up, like .5-1 seconds. May not seem much but if you are running on the track, wow it makes a huge difference. From what i have heard the SRT is in full boost by then! YAY for SRT's!! Can't wait to kill kill my bros gay EVO!! woot-woot!

yeah i red light raced one on saturday by the time i got to fourth gear he was hitting his steering wheel wondering why he spent that money on a tank. JK he was about 4 car lenghts back @ about 120 mph all the new mitsubishi has going is the evo and a alright look for the eclipse[:-]

You can throw a brick faster than Mitsu's New Eclipse...

I dont understand how a car can be this heavy and not have any room or aceleration.
Ive owned & driven a '76 & a '78 Chrysler Newyorkers when I was in High School (showing my age a lil there)
that were heaver, a hell of alot roomier & yet FASTER than the new eclipse.
It might have had something to do with the monster 440ci motors in them but I could fit 5 people & me in it and we all had plenty of room. Plus I felt like a limo driver at times [8D]

4800lb New Yorker 350HP (Standard) 4752lbs = 1 HP per every 13.57 Lb
3800lb Eclipse 263Hp (3.8L 6cyc "GT" Model) 3538lbs (Dry Weight) 1HP per every 13.45 Lb
162Hp (2.4l "Slugiest" Model) 3307lbs (Dry Weight) 1 HP per every 20.41 Lb (SLUG!)

2870 SRT-4 (230HP Std.) 1 HP per 12.478Lb

Remembering my "Captain Days" driving boats.

I might have to find one to restore.
