Spy photo of 2005 Eclipse

There was a thread about this before where someone posted the images of it from the new Car and Driver, but here is a spy pic I found.

lol. That'd be a domestic with an import conversion. I wonder if any domestic owners would do that.

even with most of the car covered it looks nothing like a 350z. just cus' it has a high rear waistline doesn't mean it looks like a 350. Looks more like an old school Ferrari, especially with those retro windows

but you can't see much with all that covered up.

Phototouched it, and it looks like a cross between a Dodge sedan and Neon. Ick. But then again, my touching probably looks very diff from the actual one.

I like the general shape of the car though. The one right now looks really weird.

I don't know about the next gen. Eclipse, Mitsubishi showed an interesting orange concept Eclipse car at the Detroit Auto Show recently, apparantly the engine is tuned for insane amounts of power.
