The Terracotta Story Thus Far

I found this amazing Eclipse on Autotrader.com.  It was at a dealership 712 miles from where I live.  It had only 3,479 miles on it when I bought it. My trip started off on Monday, April 6 at 9:00am and ended on Tuesday, April 7 at 6:00am.  For a total of 21 hours.  I had to fly from Pittsburgh to Washington, then Washington to Atlanta to get to the dealer.  Shortly after reaching the dealership, I was off on a journey.  My trip from Atlanta to Pittsburgh was something else.  The trip took 12 hours in total. 6 of the hours where through snowy weather. For the great deal I got on it and its rarity, this car was definitly worth the trip.

The car came with the Premium Sports Package and it was painted Sunset Pearlescent.  From my Car Fax I found that the car didn't have any previous wrecks or problems.  The original owner installed the sunroof visor and front grill piece.  They both look very good on this 4th gen.

Recently, my car turned over on 6,000 miles. So, I changed the oil and put Synthetic in it.  Definitely feels like my car likes it a lot.

 

Interior 

Here is my Beautiful Leather/Suede TerraCotta seats and painted matching interior. I love it!

Everything is stock.  This interior comes only with the Eclipse GT  w/

Sunset Pearlescent Paint and Premium Sport Package.

Just got a sunshade and matching Nautica towels. Pics will be coming soon.

This is the 2005 Concept-E Eclipse from Hot Wheels.  It matches my car very well and looks pretty cool on my dash. I bought the toy car in 2005 and bought the real car in 2009. Kind of ironic. Isn't it?

Had to get a matching keychain.  Got it on amazon.com for $1.50. Right side pops out to change keys. The keychain adds a lot of weight. So, I didn't want to put anything other than the neccessities. Overall, its been working out nicely.
