option 1: keep the flaming going...
option 2: informed the uninformed... dude, there are about 10 threads on that already, the oldest one being about 2 years old... we've all known that the 2012 Eclipse is the last, there's even a thread about the last one ever being auctioned for charity... so, take that bullet and go shoot yourself (all internet style obviously!!!) |

For 2012 the Mitsubishi Eclipse receives three (slight) changes: Brake override logic, a clear lip spoiler on the GT trim, and one new exterior color. This will be the final model year, albeit a short run because production will end in August 2011.

Yep, after that they are in the process of switching the plant over to the Outlander platform...which means the death of the Galant, and the Eclipse, and Endeavor.

Put a shot gun in your mouth and put your toe on the trigger
Never know they might bring it back. I owned a 2002 35th anv camaro and they said it was the last year, not look at what they came out with. Give it a few and they'll be out

I'd hardly say the eclipse is affordable.
If you where to buy the eclipse new with every single option I have in my car the retail is $32,000 on Mitsubishi website.

^^ agreed...
up here in Canada you're easily over $ 40k if you get a fully-loaded GT.. a Cobalt SS is what, $ 25k? Mustang V6, same performance as the GT, if not better, $ 30'ish k... the Eclipse is not cheap, but it's damn freakin' sexy just like a hot girl i guess

Since when do we have to be nice here????
THAT would be some news !Haha, no worries man... It happens... I guess when you drive a truck, C4G & the future of the Eclipse isnt really high on your priority list! |

I hope they just leave it dead. To be honest they eclipse hasnt been good since they stop making gst/x. Our cars are pretty but the aftermarket support is awful and theres just not shit worth doing.

the aftermarket support is crap. some of the things they were making are not being made anymore and its bull. theres always things worth doing if thats what you want to do. i love my car and will work on it till its done. i could work on something else but i dont want to. its all up to the person what what they like. custom parts are becoming m best friend, plus i work at a shop so i pretty much make all my parts.
