I always loved the 3rd gen Eclipse until i got with my now wife who owned one at the time. The engine blew up at 120k miles and after replacing it, a bunch of other stuff broke to the point that it was sold for scrap value.

I also had a dsm eclipse (1g, fwd turbo), and holy shit that was the most annoying engine to work on. Fun as hell until they need work.
