hey guys! i'm lacey. i'm 19 and looking to get a new car. I currently have an '89 Camaro which I love TO DEATH but it's gotta go. I just moved out on my own and I need a better, more reliable car. I really like the look of a 96-99 Eclipse. Unfortunately, I know more about Chevy then I do Mitsubishi. Around my area, I've yet to find too many that are the make, model, and year that I'm interested in. I've found ONE that I like, it's a '98 but has 120,000 on it. I'd like something with a little less miles, however, they're asking $3,900 for it. Should the lower the price some, my dad and I are willing to replace the engine. Thing is... as I've said I don't know much about Eclipses/Mitsubishi so I'm hoping someone out there can give me some advice/info. I'm kind of lost! :) thanks to anyone who can help me out!!

Well first off welcome to the site, hope you get the car of your dreams. That looks like the RS/GS models, which like most import cars are fairly reliable. But as I see you are a camaro owner, me thinks you would like some more power. Should that be the case, you'd want to hold out for a 96-99 GST (turboed front-wheel drive) or GSX (turboed all-wheel drive). Try www.carsoup.com I know they have at least a couple. Again, welcome to the site.

Welcome to the form. I would say go for it and put in a GST aka Turbo version of the Eclipse engine. It'll definatly give u a little more power then the N/A (naturally assperiated) engine in the car. Plus nothing is sweeter sounding than a BOV (blow off valve) vented to the atmosphere. But u should definatly try to get it for like 3K/$3000. It's not worth $3900. I hope u have good luck with it though. Peace.
