Hey everyone. I've been trying to find a nice 2g eclipose/talon around me for about a month. I saw this one on eBay but I never really took a second look at it because I always wanted to buy an unmodded one and finish it up myself.

But to tell you the truth, I dont really mind what the guy has done to the car at all....

Are those scuffs really 'touch-up' material?

What do you guys think? Worth rushing out there to look and bid-snipeing?

Haha... what does that mean?

By the way, that aluminum spoiler would be immediatly unbolted and I would put a stock GSX spoiler back on. I dont like those aluminum things on the eclipse, breaks the flow of the car.

+1 for pass. Only buy a modded car that looks well maintained or is from a reputable person or someone you know personally. Also, just for future reference, if you are really serious about buying a car, don't post an eBay link. If the car is clean, it's just begging another member to buy it out from under you.

Maybe it's his car and he's hopeing someone will try to buy it "from under him", Trying to sneak around the rules.
Maybe not, just a thought.:rolleyes:

I'd say pass on it. Take your time, unlike me and look for a well maintained car.

To be honest, that thing is gross.....

I though this was kinda funny though:
I was told by the previous owner it was diagnosed at 265hp

Was the car sick? It was diagnosed with 265hp.. Isnt that only like 50hp more than stock? You should be able to get that from free mods and the IC pipes and intake right?

One good note though, hes not venting the BOV.

Okay, you guys convinced me. I'll hold out for an unmodded one... its just so hard to some one that some dealer doesnt want 13,000 dollars for. They are rediculous around here in NJ... maybe I should go intp PA and look there.

Thanks!
