We didnt need the evo in order to compete with the sti, if they would have put more thought into another generation of the eclipse that was more powerful it very well could have competed. The evo is just new technology so of course its better. I dont know, I like the evo, but we were deffintley robbed. I agree the evo is a sharp looking car, I just cant cope with the Eclipse fading away. I just need to find a good DSM meet to goto were the Eclipse is looked greatly upon.
