I’m thinking about putting my ’97 Spyder into storage until I get some time to play with it
The storage locker is 10’ X 15’
According to the attached Technical Spec, a 2G Eclipse is:
Length: 172.2” or 14 1/3 or 14.35’
Width: 68.7” or 5 5/7 or 5.725’

The question I have is how accurate do you think these specs are? I’m not worried about the width, it’s the length that’s a little concerning. The locker is 15.0’ and these specs are coming in at 14.35’(basically 7.8” of space to play with)

Also, do you think the width of 68.7” includes the mirrors?

Thoughts?

Can't measure the car myself. It's currently stored away from my house for the winter
 
That sounds accurate. You may be able to remove the side mirrors to get a little extra space; however, I would go ahead and include the side mirrors in the width spec you gave.

Later I will measure my GS, but the length and width may vary by model.

You may have to pull straight into the garage and climb out the hatch :p
 
Thanks guys!! I don't have a hatch LOL ....
I was planning on pushing it in anyway - just to be safe
