    5500 is a steal!!! These cars are going up. I’m looking for one clean and stock and I sold about 15k in company stock just to buy one. Waiting for the right one to come around, 98-99 GSX. I had one back in 2002, with a 91 six bolt and a 20g turbo w/support mods. Really miss having one. Won’t be my daily but just an addition to my collection for nostalgic reasons.

    Just bought a 98 gst manual. Same wheels, dark grey paint the blow off valve sound is just amazing I love it. I'm gonna get ARP head studs, mls head gasket, coil overs, boost controller and bigger turbo and intercooler of course. I love this car. My brother has an rs with the 420a. It has nothing on my GST

    I just got a 1998 eagle talon tsi awd with 98k on the clock for 8500 and the top trim with everything.. It is in such good condition. The bank only valued it at 1900. I googled classic car finance and jj best bank came up. I called them and they financed my car. They were so awesome.

I personally own a 97 gsx and poured 8k to rebuilt it and after I painted it and tested the new tune I had a car accident so that was a disappointed. I'm getting my car back this month and I cant wait to drive my dream car once again

    Do you think a '96 eclipse GS at 2500$ is worth it? it's 5 speed manual and its the 4g63 engine, it currently hat 130000. miles on it, it's the exact same color as yours. where i am you can't drive unless you're 18, and i thought about saving up for this car, and i personally love the second gen eclipse, it's not exactly powerful at 140hp, and it looks awesome, especially in my country where everyone drives boring cars.

      @mgersey82  Před 5 lety

      That's alot of miles. The engine will need probably all belts and gaskets and filters replaced. If the body is in good shape it's worth 1500-1800. 2500 is too much to ask with that many miles being a gs. If it was gst or gsx yes worth 2500+.

    People think because they dump tons of money into these cars it makes the value go up, in reality most enthusiast want them to be factory when they buy one, all the loud mufflers etc take away from the value most times and usually someone like myself looking for one would not buy one that has been modified because most times it has had the hell drove out of it by a younger inexperienced person, not always but a lot of time ..yes.. I agree NADA does not represent real market value but that it what they will loan if someone does not have the cash.

    What the hell are you doing? If you keep shifting the transmission like that you're going to blow your transmissions. You are NOT supposed to move the shifter while the car is in motion, those lower gear holds are for unique situations like snow. Having owned 8 Mitsubishi including a 2g, 3g, 4g, 3g in that order and doing all mechanical work on them myself I'm telling you, straight up, you're going to destroy your transmission, thats guaranteed. Oh and Overdrive is ONLY for passing, thats why it'll shut itself off.
