Just trying to get a feeler for interest in my DSM. It is a 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GS, 5spd, Silver(with metallic blue undercoat) on charcoal leather, lowered, Kaminari 5pc body kit(minus the spoiler which I just sold), Bosal exhaust, and RActive intake. I've spent the past year bringing this ricer back to stock, and its starting to look pretty close. I have also replaced the timing belt, front brakes/rotors, front ball joints, spark plugs/wires, AC condenser, 3 week old black soft top, convertible top actuators, clutch, and fly wheel. If I remember anything else I'll be sure to post it. Like I said, this is more or less just a feeler, although with the right car, or the right price, i'm willing to let it go as soon as you want it. Thanks for looking,


I'll try and post a few better angles when I have some time.

well how much are you looking to get? being 11 years old, well used.. good shape however, just how much?

Is the motor still the stock 2.4L 141hp?

SlvrTarantula

most likely around the $8-9k mark, but open to offers. I've spent nearly $2k in the past two months on new parts, so if someone is going to offer me less then my cut-off price, I'd rather not sell.

New Top - $800
Timing/Fan belt - $650
Full brand new interior including install - $450

Thanks for askin man,

I also want to add, this car is not cursed like most other DSM's. I have babied this car since the day I got it, and only twice I have driven it hard, both times only on a track. I've had several other DSM drivers compliment my car on how solid and smooth it drives.

Yes, stock motor, it has an intake and exuast (not a $300 fartcan!!) so it breathes a bit better.

do you still got the factory side skirts>

SlvrTarantula

Nope, they were cracked and scrapped. If you are interested in the car, I have absolutely no issues picking up skirts to replace the ones already on.

Car is tentatively sold btw, but still entertaining offers as only a $100 deposit has been made..

and im guessin trades are out of the question?

SlvrTarantula

depends on what it is you have. I always keep an open mind, and am in no need for cash

SlvrTarantula

bump.. Check Aut0Trader, you wont find one for the price I'm asking.. :thumbsup:

SlvrTarantula

Im only bumping this thread a few more times before I decide to keep it and drive it through the summer

my offer still stands

SlvrTarantula

Well, I told you this through PM but I might as well make it public. Whatever car I trade for is going straight to the wifey. She only has two requests; 1, She wants a 5spd, although thats not a big deal, and 2, she wants it to be faster then the car she drives right now, which is a Volvo T5R. As it is she still thinks the T5 is a bit sluggish. E36 M3, c36, Audi TT, and the Boxster are at the top of the list. However I'm sure she'd be OK with any car which can pull off 0-100 in less then 5 seconds. She doesn't drive fast, she just accelerates fast

That P5 is an awesome looking ride, but I can picture her getting bored with it within the first year. If its any consolation, your car was the only one she concidered
