- This was the first car I bought days after turning eighteen, since then I've owned several cars but I remain attached to the eclipse, I've enjoyed it plenty on the past but its age finally catched up and it was time to get it stored and start working on it to bring the car go its full potential.
Engine and transmission work mostly fine, runs smoothly with no issues or noises, has a minor case of the infamous idle problem, and that's it. Currently dealing with the real issue, a steering rack oil leak.
Aesthetics need a lot of work, worn out paint, seats and carpet, hard water stains on windows, faded headlights and other minor stuff. I mostly like the car just as it came out of the dealership.
I have minor mods in mind like an antenna delete, window tint, custom bumper grill, yellow fog lights, custom air intake system, respraying the OEM rims black and a cat delete.
