if he has a brand new one with the v6 youre gonna loose everytime. Trust me. i ran into a few orange colored ones when they first came out and they ran with me without a problem stock. I wasnt stock, had u/d pulleys, coil packs, wires, pi cams and pi intake, 3.73's and exhaust.

I struggle to call the new eclipses ricers... they have a shakey history, but honestly the new ones are sick and you who have called it "rice" should not be allowed near a car.

whats with the 'u could take him' 'eclipse are rice' attitude!?
he already said he got smoked lol but i def agree with those eclipse being a chick car, my sister has a 07-spyder-v4 and she tought she was all fast and furious with the need for speed till i got my stang and put her in her place never came across a gt though but im sure id drop them down a few notches too Last edited by X2RTION GT : December 30th, 2007 at 07:16 AM. |
