I have $2500 to spend and am looking for an Eclipse. I have found several so far but i need help choosing which one to get..
Choices:
-95 GSX AWD Turbo 5spd Manual (needs new trans but comes with it; 5hr drive) - $2250
-98 GS Spyder Convertible 2.4L 5spd Auto (in town) - $2700 (can talk him down)
-95 GS 2.4L 5spd Auto - $2200 (2 hr drive)
I'd have to swap the trans in the GSX at my dad's friend's house. I mainly want a DSM to womp my stepdad's pos 2011 GS.
I'm thinkin GSX, but i dont really have alot of experience with trannys.. The only problem is that 2nd keeps popping out, so id have 5hrs of careful driving and skipping 2nd. It's also the so-called "rare" orange/gray color combo (i don't believe in "rare" color schemes)
Tell me what you guys think! I really want to get into DSM and Tuners in general, and for $2500 i can't really go wrong besides part failures.
