Well I was readin' Pop Mechanics and saw the new 4G 2006 Eclipse
It's got a mercury cougar front end with projectors, Saturn Ion meets Nissan Maxima sides with a wierd Mustang like side vent, and a Chrysler Crossfire meets Hyundai Tibouron rear.
(I'll let you make your own judgements, I think it looks like the run-of-the-mill modern day sports car...)
Here's how the models will/should pan out
RS/GS- 2.4L DOHC I4 all alum. MIVEC 190hp 6sp or 5sp auto
The engine will be shared in the 3G Stratus RT/Sebring LXi/Hyundai Tibouron. The engine is being engineered mostly in part my Mitsu... with rumors of a Mercedez (Daimler Chrysler) Tranny with RWD in the V6
GT - 3.8L SOHC V6 250 hp 6 sp or 5 sp auto
GTS - 3.8L SOHC V6 MIVEC 260 hp 6sp or 5 sp auto
The 3.8L V6 is from the Diamante/04' Galant/Montero Sport
The suspension, height and width of the car should be similar to the 3000GT/Stealth...
Very interesting to say the least...
