From the top view, it looks like someone cut the front end off of a new Beetle and welded it to the back of a new Eclipse. Weird.

 

Interesting lines on the car. The sholder rises and just keeps rising. They will sell many that's for sure. There is a lot of sheet metal above the rear tire as well.

 

Say what you will, but if it were RWD it would be a pretty cool car. It would compete with the 350Z very well.

FWD with all that power and weight is just laughable, though. Using a SUV platform just doesn't seem right for a "sports" coupe.

 

I also like the convertible

 

I think that the vert looks waaaayyyy better than the coupe. The vert is not bad looking IMHO.

 

Still dont like it, but the vert looks alot better than the coupe

 

Oh, my memory was a little off, but still, 101 mph trap speed is as good or faster than S2000's. Being FWD, it probably has a hard time with the launch, hence slower e.t., but it has power.

I like the new Eclipse much better than the last gen.

 

C&D isn't going to drive the car for max fuel economy. I can drive the S2000 aggressively and get 15 mpg too...utterly shameful for a 2.2l 4 cyl.

 

with that hidiously gigantic ass, it still manages to have tiny, and completely useless back seats.

 

I like it a lot.
