1990 eclipse gsx. Had an upgraded TD05(H?)turbo, spiral header (ugh), and upgraded 12v fuel system. Made really decent power even though the power and was meh. Had it about 3 months before I made the executive decision to sell it before I killed myself.

Had a full 3” turbo back from magnaflow that was loud as hell.

Bought it in 2012 for $1200 with 143,xxx miles on it. If I had it today I probably would have kept it. The interior was immaculate except for a couple cracks on the dash.

My 1999 Plymouth RS was that same color. Trans separated from the engine on its own.

The day before I moved across the US it was broken into along with nearly every other car in my parking lot. Thieves pulled up in a box van and silently opened up various vehicles using known weaknesses, without breaking any glass. The DSM apparently could have its door handle popped off to get the door to open somehow.

Hmmm that might explain why this one didn’t have a passenger handle when I bought it.
