Talon_66 from Edmonton has a '06 but not sure if it's a 3rd gen.

Thats a 4g Eclipse though
My brother owns a 2000 GT Eclipse (V6)
Havent driven it but I been in it a couple times and its a pretty nice car.
Love the interior
Only problem is that adding a turbo to the engine with stock internals isnt a good idea from what I hear. The Pistons are VERY WEAK. Its ether go forged or go S/C.
But other than that, the sound of the V6 is really nice and with forged internals and a turbo, it would really haul a--
Some people dislike the look. I think its nice

Yeah im loving it so far! I got the gts, and doubt ill turbo it (unless i come in to some money) and i like the way it sounds! Ive got a cai on order now which should give a slightly meaner sound! And my eibach pro kit is on the way with my kyb agx 4 way adjustable struts! WOOT!!!

Yeah but shes dead

... Nah i think the stock gs is a better for handling then the eclipse, BUT the eclipse is not bad, the gts comes stock with a front tower brace. Im upgrading the struts to kyb agx, and dropping it 1.6 inches, so im sure that will make all the diffrence in the world!
