That isn't an eclipse, its a sebring. They should have never gotten in bed with Chrysler. Mitsubishi has always been the worst Japanese car company.

lol I still have fond memories of when I was about 4, the transmission in our family's old beaten up Mitsubishi decided to go...

I rememvly know what my car was ('is that a Celica or something?'), alluva sudden, where experts on the car, and all wanted one! I'd tell them I had the late 80's model and they'd just shrug and walk off. Bastards.

lol Sorry, I got into car as a kid but, I really got into the scene with my first car was 2004 when I grad HS. But I was around to see the scene out of middle school with the old Integras, and prelude era.

The car I had wehn I got into It was a 1988 Mazda Rx-7 FC3S I love that thing till broke down lol.It was my first car.

Most people didn't even care about those cars from the 80s It was easier to find AE86 back then too, everyone was all into the cars that showed up in the movie. Like eclipse.

RSX, EVO8,WRX STI,S2000,Nissan 350z,RX8 were the cars of the scene of that generation.

Which hasn't even been that long 7 years lol

I agree. The last two Eclipses were pretty cool, but this generation looks like a giant squashed marshmellow.

It's a shame when a manufacturer comes out with a shitty design and then wonders why the car fails so instead of remaking it, they stop producing the car. HINT HINT NUDGE @ TOYOTA.

Zaku · 04-28-2011, 04:50 PM

hmm... this might just be me, but I've never seen Mitsubishi with good looking cars. They're the the confidential girl who stands next to a fat chick to look good. Example put an EVO by a WRX and it's automatically EVO looks better.

Since Subaru has the Auto ugly in mind with acceptions to few.

Can't... think of a good looking Mitsubishi. The 3000GT was meh.... EVO X looks like it wants to eat you and your babies. Every Eclipse was Ugly. so were the galants,dimante...

Xantonin is right lol

4agze · 04-28-2011, 05:35 PM

I think mitsubishi USA is the problem, I've seen good looking/performing mitsubishi like the

mitsubishi evo vi tommi makinen

mitsubishi colt ralliart

mitsubishi starion turbo

RRnold · 04-28-2011, 06:39 PM

Shoot, I forgot about the Starion!

Kage · 04-28-2011, 08:41 PM

...idk those all look hideous to me. The 2g eclipse was almost a nice looking car, until I saw that damn tumor on the hood.

No love for the Evo 6 nor the Starion...

I see you drive a Celica.

Random_Art · 04-29-2011, 10:08 AM

I almost like the looks of the last generation of the Eclipse. it's really the weight, and price you have to pay to get anything worthwhile that kills the sale. $30k+ to get 265hp and an automatic transmission in a 3400lb front wheel drive car doesn't make much sense.

There's a first generation Talon TSI AWD sitting outside my apartment since I moved in. It only moved once when the complex threatened to tow it. I'd make an offer on it if I knew who owned it.

I like the older galant vr4s quite a bit.

4WD, 2.5l twin turbo v6, 280 HP . . . wish I could have a JDM model, sigh.

and they put big power down
