I thought Eclipses were chick cars

[Jimbo]

Yes, and I own one lol! Having a v8 helps it's masculinity, but it's a girly v8 stock. As soon as it's over 300hp it gets it's testicles back.

If your car has two doors and can't do the 1/4 in under 14 seconds, it's a chick car, period. Also if it has two doors and FWD, no amount of horsepower will man it up. It's meant for a girl.

I'll disagree.

I would say any Eclipse after '98 is a chick car. I'm not a big fan of the second gens either ('95-'98 I believe) but atleast they still had turbos on the GST / GSX.

I personally have always like those first gen DSM cars, Eclipse GSX / GST and Talon TSI. Good looking cars IMO, especially with flip up lights which i've always been a sucker for. They also had cool interiors for their time. Descent performance and as long as you weren't completely beating the crap out of it seem to be fairly reliable cars. You almost never see a clean, stock looking one on the road.

That's cool, I merely stated my opinion. I'd love to find an exception, but I can't think of one. I love my stock coupe, but with less power than later model v6's, it fits the criteria.

I just can't say that if I saw a smokin hot chick, in an immaculate '85 coupe with a healthy camming exhaust, and some 'ol weld draglites, that I would say "thats normal, I see that all the time".

That's ignorant.

That would tighten up the pants a bit though

Only diamond plate floors can make an Eclipse manly.

Love to find an exception? How about the majority of classic muscle cars, italian sports cars, and others.

If a guy in giant sun-glasses, a tight v-neck, and a jersey shore haircut isn't manly then i dunno what is!

*edit* can't forget the seafoam green pants

Damn straight. Just think how fucking manly you would have to be to wear all that while being a skinny little prick, and still be a badass.
