I just found out that Mitsubishi eclipse has a 0 % apr for 48 months. Man can you picture the Rx8 with a zero apr!!! I guess the eclipse is not doing so well.

Sure, if you take the rebates that are being given on the 8, that is easily the interest that would be covered by a 0% loan.

The Eclipse is all show and no go. It's on the Galant platform and so it is not as dynamic as it should be.

Your right, didn't think of that. The eclipse and the 8... no comparison. Mitsubishi used to be one of my favorites'.... But they still the the Evo....

Actually I think it's faster than the 8 or atleast on par, that is in a 0-60 test. Other than that no comparisan, plus its a chick car.

Jesus, here we go again. Yes, 8's and 06+ Eclipse GT's are neck and neck in a straight line until a corner comes up and the Eclipse's fat *** understeers into a tree.

End of discussion.

I think that is the primary reason why I bought the Z new and not the 8. I got my Z for 28K + 2.9%. At the time, I think the 8 would have cost me $24K with regular financing. If it was $22K and 2.9%, I would have gone with the 8 to save some money.
