Here's my baby.  She's a 2006 Eclipse GT.  A work in progress, but I've got her basically where I want her.  I chose the 4G eclipse as it was the best compromise for my work and play.  I'm a musician, but since I could only justify one car it had to be the best of both worlds.  I was looking for something with a Z type shape, but it needed to have ample trunk space and back seats and preferebly a sunroof being I was giving up my convertible.  I was coming from a 2002 SE Miata that I loved, but sadly it didn't suit my cargo space needs. (more on that later) I was looking for something with decent performance potential and practicality.  Basically I wanted something that looked like a 350Z but with a trunk more like a Mazdaspeed 3.  And since I got it, I've been loving every minute of it.....

To start the journey, here's a shot of her bone stock after I got her followed by the mods...

there that's better!  Smoked LED Tailights.  2009 Rear Bumper and rear valance ground effects. ,  2 Thunderbolt Mufflers w/ 4.5" polished tips and Custom Y Pipe.  Great sound!  Check out the video under on my profile or go to this youtube link:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFV-z1_v14Y

ToddFalanski's 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse        She was fun for the 3 years I had her, could out handle a Ferrari on the track, but not a straight line performer.  I had plans to turbo her, but my eyes fell upon the black beauty that graced these other pages... =)  Thanks for stopping by!
