mani have a 1st gen 94 gs 1.8 topps out at 110 and its manual i pay may be 130 a month for full coverage forit and im 17 so if you have a eclipse lined up i would suggest you get it as long as you have a good steady job lined up im strugglin to pay 300 a month with the way gas prices are
just a little personal experence for you to chew on

lol guess no point in our opinion anymore.... nate, i have the 1.8l in my 94 and i toped out at 99, had to go down hill a bit to hit the 100.... i must have a slow one, lol. and also, my insurance is under 100 a month with FULL coverage... why is all your so high? asloi do get the good grade discount, but that only droped it about 20 bucks. plus im only 16...

If its your 1st ride get a non turbo Eclipse I like the 2G better but, are harder to find in good shape than the 3G if I were you I would go for one that is bone stock. The person who had it probably just drove it and not dogged it out/

93 Eagle Talon TSI 5speed.....bad 1st gear

2000 GT sporttronic....problem with headlights and fuse for radio display btw is the same fuse for cig lighter (hint), cover for sunroof always off trac, windows slow going up

2003 GS sporttronic ... No problems except blown amp and infinty system a bitch to hood after market head to.

I say get a GS or RS get insurance and when paid off mod the **** out of it!!!!
