Man you know what I just came from an Eclipse and I'm still good with some of the old forum members. Most of them went with 350z/370z too. Every fan of Mitsu hates to see the route they went. No new revamp of Evolution or Vr4. Just your basic commuter vehicles being produced to stay relevant. I'm not mad because changing trends and changing times mean you have to follow suit if you wish to gain a few sales in the market but someone has to do SOMETHING that isn't your Mustang or Camaro...I just like to have the options available which is why I went with a 370 anyway.

Mitsu could've built that crossover and left the eclipse name off of it. I agree about needing more cars. But I ended up in a camaro after driving 6 performance cars and making a tough decision. The camaro wasn't my favorite to look at, but murdered the scene behind the wheel. At the end of the day. I want my soul stirred. I can't drive a boring car just to be different. But I will choose the exciting car if it's also different.

The Z was the best car in the last decade for the money cuz it fit all aspects of the car buying experience, it was hot looking, powerful and handled crazy with mild mods.
Most cars today are disappointing.

The Giulia is the best handling car today imho. I just got cold feet cuz of reliability questions.

Exactly! The Eclipse cross? Why not rebrand it as an Endeavor or a new line altogether...I'm with you man it's just the options. All about the choices. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a Camaro or Mustang and for the price of even your bare bones Mustang GT you get a solid ride right out of the box. Hell even the v6 Camaro is putting down some serious numbers. I don't think the Stinger will win over millions but it's another entry to keep us that are excited about cars excited!
