Wats up I'm Johnathan. I have a 96 Eclipse RS. My car's nothin too out there, and I'm not all stuck up like some of there dudes out there. I try my best not to be a ricer, you kno, like those huge wings on FWD cars. Pointless. And those faggety 5 dollar graphics and all these AutoZone parts and fake fender vents. Dude seriously you might as well use a lil more money and get it done the right way so u dont look like a jackass. Well there's a lot of time put into this car so I hope you enjoy and leave me some love haha ;)

I will be waiting at a light and as I glance to my side a middle-aged man going through a mid-life crisis will pull up in his ever so beautiful Corvette (or other priceless dream car). He'll inevitablly smirk at my mere 2.0 liter Import knowing he has me beat by roughly 3 times my motor and double the amount of cylinders. But when that light goes green and I rip out of the hole like he has never seen before, and as his eyes widen and fill with fear and desperation, suddenly he think's to himself "Am I going to lose to this Import?!" A grin paints my face from ear to ear and pride fills my turbocharged veins as my so called inferior car has become the hunter. The fact that my tiny two liter "pop bottle" motor is spanking a car that has twice my cubic inches and then some, that's what really gets me going!!!
