Eclipse looks nice. Glad to see you haven't riced it out like every other one I've seen on the road. I haven't really heard much on the bad side of these ones in terms of reliability. The old ones.....that's a different story.

I will confirm that that bitch is f*cking reliable. It's never left me stranded, and I hate it when people rice these cars. They looks so nice stock.

The weird problems get me, though. Like the motor mounts, shifter linkage, and the water-temperature controlled idle - SO WEIRD. But whatever, She's a good car and very reliable.

Yeah. My Corolla had weird quirks all the time. Can't remember any off the top of my head, but the car would always fix itself.
