He wants something "exclusive..." so he's looking into an Eclipse?!?! That's hardly exclusive by any means. They are known for burning oil, regardless of how well you maintain them. However, my sister has a '99 Mitsubishi Galant, and she maintains it about like any girl does. 10,000 mile oil changes, chronically flat tires, the works. 218,000 miles and that car is miraculously still running strong. So I can't say that all Mitsubishis are bad cars. But the Eclipse isn't their greatest creation.
I x2 the Integra GSR. Except he has to get a type R front end because Teg's are hideous in my opinion. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.
