RE: 2006 Eclipse
its great that they went back towards the 2nd gen style
its great that it has 2 engines and 400hp * last I heard
it sucks cause THAT model probably wont make it over here
I would buy it

The front end looks good, but that is about it. the rear looks like it should be the front! Also the interior needs a little more work..maybe it's just me, but I like the "Cockpit" feel of my 1g. That one seems to curvey and open. Anyway, just my 2 cents.

The image of the new Eclipse posted on the above listed Edmunds website (If the link works) has been bugging me for a few days now.
What is it about this picture ?
I finally was able to put my finger on it.
I'm see'in VW Bug lines here.
Am I crazy ?
So I've been think'in about this and I have come up with a 'conspiracy theory'.
I am thinking Mitsubishi is going for super crash safety by subtely incorporating the VW body style.
If this is true then I can try a prophecy here, and that is:
Mitsubishi will tout (advertise) this new model as having a high safety crash rating.

I kinda feel like I insulted the Eclipse by even mentioning "VW".
Gee, I grew up in the 60's when VW's were geek cars.
I think it would be cool if the 2000 eclipse turns out shaped more along the lines of the Ford GT.[8D]
I dig the interrior ! It is way past time for something new here. I'm sick and tired of all the 'half-moon' Ford Taurusey -Saturn style dash arangements.

Personally I don't like the look, too futuristic. I'm not sure if I'm the only one who thinks this way but do you think desginers are jumping ahead in desgin? I personally can't stand it when they make things look too new or futuristic. And 2 engines, why, I wish they would just go back to a turbo.
