Im a noob and i actually dont have a car since im not 16 yet but im looking into a 2000 eclipse rs. its pretty much base and it was 70000 miles on it but it looks nice and i was wondering if $6000 was a good price for it and if these cars were real reliable and nice to drive and all that stuff. Any imput would be appreciated

if you have the money to buy the car and turbo it, then get it. but if you dont have the money for a turbo, the car will be slow. you could look into getting a GT. you might want to check on insurance

i have an rs and they are really reliable. i got my 2001 in 2003 with 58000 miles on it. and as eclipsedforutoo said, they are s l o w. its still a good first car, for anyone, i havent had any trouble with it yet. but if your looking for a stock car that fast,then go for the gt.

i think you should go with the RS. its a good car and not much power for a newbie driver.

go test drive a GT then go back to your GS...then you will know what slow is.(not saying that the GT is super fast though)
