Re: 2009 Eclipse

Dual exhaust, 2G style spoiler, black front grill with a newly designed aero look, ralliart style rear bumper, original aero kit side sill, fog light housings on the front end are also evo x-ish.

I think it makes it look less like the audi TT... and more like an eclipse.

Re: 2009 Eclipse

The rear end looks better to me, otherwise it looks pretty much the same I guess.

Re: 2009 Eclipse

Front lip is a lot like the new lip kit on the 08, if this is a lip kit i'm gonna be pissed, but if it's like a full bumper i'm gonna swap for the new ones for sure.

Since when did an eclipse ever have dual exhaust.... (3gs and 4gs are not eclipses)

Re: 2009 Eclipse

If its not a V and true dual exhaust it will fail like SRT Neons.

I like it except the color. That big black grill is a nice spot to hang a license plate.

Since when does it matter? It was done on the RA concept and this is clearly a bit of a reiteration of that.

I agree, if it's the same as a neon dual exhaust it'll be lame, which is likely is.

No awd or turbo = worthless in my book.

I like the way it looks better, but it still needs AWD

Re: 2009 Eclipse

It's still the 4th gen, so it probably wouldn't make sense for them to make a huge change like that for the last year for the model... or would it?

I mean I agree, but I don't think it'll happen till the next generation.

Re: 2009 Eclipse

Yaay, more weight and more rice. Give it a turbo, awd, faded paint, and swirly rims, and a power hump, and then I may be interested.

Popular opinion among DSMers. I love my 4G, but it gets a fair amount of negative attention.

Re: 2009 Eclipse

I like the look, but I'll stick with my cheaper, faster, AWD cars. (maybe RWD in the future)
