90-93 integras, and 88-95 civics. the 96-00 civics and the 94-01 integras are great too, but the prices go up sharply on those years.

mitsubishis are **** boxes period. i have an rs that is my daily driver. it's one of the biggest auto mistake i've made. all engines except the 4g63 are trash. i'm going to give my car to my brother in law when he goes to college this fall. so i suggest staying away from eclipses. i wouldn't even say anything if i didn't have one. get a civic or teg. no need to wasted your $.

*cough cough* Hang on. Let me get some water... *cough gulp gulp* Ok, there we go.

I think the correct thing to say is that NEW Mitsubishis excluding the Evo are pretty crappy... DSM's kick serious balls. You can't judge the whole crop just by driving the crappiest one (RS = Non 4G63).

And pcupo, all I was saying is that it is possible to build a fast "tuner" (overused word) car at what would be considered a cheap price.
