bk3939 · June 28th, 2011, 07:50 PM

I owned a 2004 Eclipse GTS automatic and now I own a 2008 GT Eclipse automatic.

3G
-Had more space in the back seat and in the trunk area.
-When drifting on the highway the gears kind of hold you back.
-Winter tires are a lot cheaper to put on for the winter due to 17inch rims
-Got about 300miles to a full tank
-Door handles were sturdy and not cheap plastic
-60k to change the timing belt

4G
-Smaller trunk space due to Rockford Fostgate subwoofer
-On the highway the car drifts a lot better and the gears do not hold you back
-The rockford fosgate sound system sounds way clearer then the 3g.
-You Can play MP3 CD's
-The engine is a lot faster way more torque
- Get about 265miles to a full tank
-Under the hood is dressed up a lot better
-Door handles are cheap plastic and feel like there going to break
-Heated Leather Seats
-Cool Blue Interior Lighting
-Timing belt can be changed at 100k now
