Everyone this is Frogger, please do not exclude him because he is different!! It's a 96 eclipse RS "apparently" 88,000 miles got it for 3,000! (150 a month for 18 months) The original asking price was in the 5k's but the guy was going out of buisness and wanted to sell it for auction price. My dad cosigned for me. It's a 5 speed transmission, shifts good reverse is a little hard to find but I'll adjust. It's pretty peppy and the interior is excellent. I love it. Oh and I know the brakes work well! I was driving it home and was trying to get off on an exit, someone like cut in front of me and slammed on their brakes, I barely had time to stop. I was like a foot away from their bumper when I came to a halt. It scared me so bad I started crying afterwards thinking about how ****ed up that would have been! Thank god I'm a good driver with good reflexes. On a side note I was going to buy a 99 firebird, my dad was for it and was going to help me get the loan as well. But we called the insurance company and they wanted 1500 every 6 months for full coverage! Thats 3,000 a year! And the car had a loan value of 6500. So that killed that idea. I was really disapointed and thought I wasn't going to find anything really nice. But I got lucky for once maybe.

Sorry this is the only pic "from the auto trader ad" I will post more up tomorrow. My digi cam batteries were dead tonight. =(

I'll admit it, I'm disappointed in you, you should've got another Mustang, hehe. Of course I'm pretty partial.
Now as long as you don't put the fart can and big wings on that car it'll be pretty tight. slap a turbo on it and sneak up on people, ehehe

Or use it as a daily driver and save money for the tranny instead of wasting a **** load on a turbo?

It's a really pretty green, maybe a little color shifting to it. Looks a little different at night.

Uh oh...... a DSM... Money Pit. Congatulations on the buy, keep it well maintained and drive responsibly and you shouldn't have to spend thousands on Repairs.

It's not turbo so I don't think I have too much to worry about.
