I'm really glad that I had purchased my '06 Eclipse used for only $12000 a few years back. Certainly wouldn't pay $30K for a new one, but that's just MY opinion. It might be a different story if it were RWD and a little lighter.

That said... I loved my Eclipse GT, especially since it was a hatch! However, I'm loving my FR-S more even with the reduced horsepower.

...I do really miss the hatch though.

Never said it was. I was talking about both GS SE, and the GT...
