while searching for an AWD i came upon this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=2481176808&category=6214&sspagename=WDVW

it is a 5 speed but just so happens to have automatic gauges. You think this is fraud? I am going to send him an email asking wuts up. Give this guy hell if you agree. This type of shit pisses me off.

its not an auto it just happens to have one of those guage overlays thats made for an auto. the actual cluster is a 5 speed cluster. So its all good. My car is a manual and my cluster looks the same just has a solid piece of plastic over where the auto gear indicator is.

its extremely easy to change the odometer settings on our cars...so i wouldent be thinking that only a cluster that looks switched has been messed with. hell, i bought a new cluster because my old one fried...and i changed and mielage on mine (to the correct mileage of course :P)

if you look closely you can see that the tach goes to 9k

I dont see what the problem is? :shrug

He thought that the dealer put in a different gauge cluster (with less miles) because it has an automatic style bezel.

Yup, he's got an automatic gauge bezel overlay, but you can tell that his tach goes up to 9k. If you're interested in buying it and want to be 100% sure, take his vin and get a carfax report.

My friend owns a automatic eclipse and he says that if was in fact a automatic you would see the overdrive screen near the bottom of the vertical cutout section of the bezel between the tach and the speedometer. He said even when the car is off you can still see the screen there. If you look at the picture below it would be to the left of the button that resets tripometer in that vertical cutout section. Hope this helps!

and the tach redlines at 6.5k and ends at 8k

I didnt know the bezels were different.
