Would you guys (and girls) think less of me if I sold my car?

I just wanted to see what kind of reaction you all would have if I sold my 00 Eclipse Gt and bought this insead?

It's a MUCH better vehicle than a 2000 3G eclipse.

Hopefully not your first bike?

Yeah, a 76 Honda 750 is an upgrade from a 00 Eclipse!

I'm sure girls would like it if you take them for a ride.

But a car for bike? A car can get you around in winter. A bike is more of a summer plaything every year.

I don't think anyone here really cares about the 3g eclipse. No offense to anyone who owns one, they are nice cars, but they aren't really considered DSM's and are really as focused on performance as many of the members here would have liked.

If it is your first bike I say go for it.
If not, I'd say go R1.

3gs are UBER gay. Get rid of it.

I'm not scraping you up off the road j/k. Sell it, buy a bike and a 1g have the best of both worlds, and dont give me "I wont have enough money!!" It can be done. Winter in a 1g gsx'r would be fun as hell, on two wheels, fall down go boom.

Re: Would you guys (and girls) think less of me if I sold my car?

I was really just looking for some reactions. I actually bought it last night and brought it home (my garage wall in the bg).

Thanks for all the kind words though.

And, NO, I didn't sell the uber gay 3G. I have to agree with Black97civic that it isn't really as performance driven as what mitsu should have/could have done with a V6 in that car. I still like it though. Now I will just let the wife drive it for the rest of the summer cause I like the bike 100 times better anyway.

Now I will have to try and find time to get down to a meet this summer or early fall on the bike.

PEACE

Does it really matter to you that much about what a bunch of guys that have probably never met you, think of you?

Meh, halfway. I actually typed that about 10 mins before I sent it, so I didn't see the post where you said you were just doing it for a rise, and I was too lazy to edit my post. Nice bike though Personally, I would have gone with a gixxer 600, or a cbr 600 rr. But that's just me

The CBR is nice and everything but I have a factory race bike. No parts needed. And I think it looks a lot nicer than the gixxer.
