The FTO is another car all together, not based on anything else (but borrows some bits from the Mitsi range). The FTO was pretty much only sold in Japan (it won the Japanese car of the year in 1994). They've become popular over here in the UK because they're something a bit different (and we never got the Eclipse), there's probably a couple of thousand of them over here now. However we have to import them specially from Japan (not a problem now because there are hundreds of car importers bringing all types of Jap cars over, and the Japanese drive on the same side of the road to us, which is nice).
A bit of extra info if your interested, my FTO is a GPX which has a 2.0L V6 with MIVEC, which produces 200bhp (factory claim, but not bad for a N/A car). It's FWD and mines got a manual gear box (I think stick shift is the US term?). The FTO is also availabe with a 2.0L V6 without MIVEC heads (~170bhp) called the GR and a 1.8L four pot (~125bhp) called the GS (no-one bought this though!). The 'top of the range' is the GPvR which is a GPX but a bit lighter and has a different rear spolier (wing) (there's also a GX which is a GR with some GPX options but not the engine, just to confuse matters). All can have the semi automatic (tiptronic) INVECS II gearbox, or a manual (manual is bit quicker). There two or three turbo charged versions about in the UK, but these are 'specials'.

supra??? umm no way. The FTO is a great looking car but they dont have the HP demand that we like ya know. I really dont even see it as an eclipse it is its own breed if anythin It has headlights like an RX7 with the fixed headlight modd but even that is a stretch
