Funny that you would say that.....I am ready to get rid of my 95 Eclipse GS(NT) and get a damn Mustang GT for christ's sake, and i was a die hard import fan, but supras, skylines and rx7s are more than just a lil outta my range bein a full time college student, so i figure i'll finance a 2000 GT that comes off with like 120 more horses than my piece of shit car which will probably cost me alot more in the long run, if it were to run that long!!! but in response to the one seeking advice, if you were to get an eclipse, spring for the GST or GSX(both of which come with a turbo that gives like 210hp to the wheels as opposed to the GS/RS which puts out a weak 140, and a sportier suspension for more aggressive driving),i wish i knew the eclipse was running off of a damn dodge neon engine(pre-SRT4) before i purchased it, i wouldn't have needed to think about it at all..... other things to consider....1)ride height and your height - i' 5'11" and that thing was so low to the ground i was practically gettin my eagle on tryin to get in the bitch......2) because i' sure you'll be wanting to make quick manuevers in it....you might want to consider a car that doesn't have too much rear view obstruction, the car has horrible blind spots that make lane changing a longer and more thought-out process if you know what i mean....and in a world where timing is EVERYTHING....things like that count no matter what, if you don't agree....i hope the laws of physics favor you when that 18 wheeler comes barreling down the lane your about to get in and if you didn't know....I AM SPEAKIN FROM EXPERIENCE!!!!!
