Well next year im gonna try to get me a brand new eclipse. Im deciding between that or a stealth/3000gt and i may just get it for the warranty. Anyone out there have a 3G eclipse that would give me any feedback on what they are like? Are the GTS models very quick factory? Mods= void warranty, so it will be lightly modded if at all. Handling any good, i love the handling of my 1G DSM's, never tried a AWD though. Newer cars i have drove feel bulky in cornering and dont offer the secure feeling that my 1G dsms seem to give me, so im not sure if the 3G is one of them. I will of course test drive it first, but trying to decide if I want an eclipse or get an older stealth. One more thing, the sporttronic vs manual tranny, i would think the manual would be better, not sure how good the sport tronic trannys are. Thanks!

LOS on our list runs a black 3G in autocross and he runs pretty damn good. It wouldn't be my first choice, but I drove one when they first came out and I don't think it would make a bad daily driver.
