Modifications include custom katzkin Italian leather seats (the same seats that are used on the TV show Overhaul'n), all black interior with a brand new black carpet, car has a full body kit with an immaculate paint job, it has been lowered with 2" eibach springs and kyb struts and shocks, full magnaflow exhaust, $400 clifford alarm system with paging remote, 17" exel chrome rims, brand new kumho tires with less than 1500 miles on them, sirius satellite radio.

I think that's way too high.



Kelley Blue Book Suggested Retail is $6,035 for excellent value.



Back in like 1999 I bought a used 1995 with 70k miles Eclipse for 10,500 with a security system.



I would not do it.



Eclipses are cool cars, but do your research. 120-160k are the trouble miles for the elipse. Sensors and timing belt start going.

Theres something fishy by just the looks of that car and the price. If you really want it, I would research as much as possible before buying it. You want to check its VIN, maintenance, and also test drive to see if theres no weird no noises or vibration. The price seems overpriced as well. All he basically did was slap some exterior/interior designs and intake and exhaust. You can do the same thing if you can get eclipse over 100,000 for 3,000 dollars stock and put another 3k-4k of mods and paint. But overall, I wouldn't get it if I was you. That guy just wants all his money back from what he build on it. But around 5k is a good deal though.

The RS and GS purely got here with the 420a neon motor in it so which you do have the 420a POS. With all which you have have been given completed to the motor vehicle already it would be obtrusive to you by using now not something will make it greater constructive. i might sell it and purchase something nicer, an EVO to illustrate, the AWD and rapid make for between the quickest and relaxing rides you will hit upon, I do basically not purely like the boxy sedan look. I rather have a 1998 Grand Prix this is by using far between the superb autos i've got owned. I rather have a point I ecu, a three" supercharger pulley, chilly air intake and the only mistake substitute into the headers. i can flow one hundred fifty mph, yet I misplaced low end torque with the aid of returned rigidity loss. It substitute into lots quicker with the inventory exhaust manifolds and the u-bend nonetheless in the device. The u-bend gave it the returned rigidity mandatory for off the line launch.

That's definitely a reasonable price, you should probably go for like $7,300-$7,500. DO NOT PLAN ON GETTING WHAT YOU PAID FOR IT if you should decide to sell later on. Also, you won't be able to drive it in winter because it's lowered and has ground effects, you'll have to buy a new car in the winter, so if you're okay with that, get it because it's a sick *** car.
