im going to be buying that car, ^ but i heard that the 95-99 eclipses, get crank walk and you need to get a 6 bolt swap, do you think a regular engine like this one will last for a while and how much does it cost to get a swap?

Dude, I wouldn't worry about the motor. You usually don't see crankwalk until around 70K, and even then, it was just some of them. Besides, if it was rebuilt, better parts were probably put in it and there is less of a chance you will have that problem.

I would worry about the swap if you get crank walk, otherwise, just drive it and have fun with it.

Crankwalk is soooooo overrated, only a small percentage of 2gs get it. There are plenty of modded 7 bolts that make it to over 200k, just make sure you take care of it and do the regular maintenance.

Wow, what a ripoff.

You can go get yourself a VR4 for about that price.

maybe one that the areoactive spoiler system doesn't work. Otherwise, you are looking at like 12-14K for a working one.

So what color is the interior gray or black? At one point it says black and then later on it says gray.
