Road Report: 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse

all in all it was a great car.
yesterday i was bored and on my way back from moving out of my apartment i stopped at a local dealership. i test drove the new eclipse, i like how they redesigned it into the wide body style, its pretty quiet, and is actually pretty quick, if the price tag wasn't so high i would buy one.

I don't know if it's just that pic but I think it's goofy looking...

The HUGE wheel wells sitting over the pretty small wheels/tires looks funny...IMO

Yeah that thing is pretty ugly. But according to the stat sheets, it has something like a V-6 230HP engine and like a 5.8 0-60.
