When I first glanced at this thread I thought it said "Talon". Now a nice late model tsi might be worth thinking about.

So do you mean they are heavy cars for girls, or cars for heavy girls? There seems to be an inordinate amount of fat chicks driving Tiburons and new Eclipses around here...
Let me just say YUCK to both of those options... I'm just biased against Hyundai, and the new Eclipses are just a shadow of a sporty car... the ultimate non-enthusiast car.

Then thats your decision right there.
I tested both the Eclipse & the Tiburon in that oder ! The Eclipse handle BAD-ASS in the S curves (60mph) no lose ! The power was ah... so so.
Then I drove the Tiburon , OMG I could not get out of it fast enough ! The same S curve 35-40 almost lost it ! The power (WHAT POWER) !
And now we come to the MSP Blazing Yellow , Booya Lets go for a ride ! ! ! Not the same turns but , I guess it was the turbo and the color that got me !
It was the MSP , Eclipse or a Toyota Celica ! I sure did like that 1 but I forgot about it ! after the MSP !

y ask that qustion on a mazda site. u know we are all gonna say MSP!!
If you're in it for show, you might consider getting the tib, my friend has one and he gets looked at all the time, people think he drives an exotic. But if you're in it for performance, DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT!!!!! I REPEAT DO NOT! get an eclipse or tib, the things are extremely heavy and difficult to mod because of their V6s.
97 Eclipse Gst
I am selling my 97 STOCK eclipse GS-T. I have 2 cars now and I can't really afford to keep both and since i am old now and need 4 doors I have to let the eclipse go. It is in excellent condition, and I do mean excellent, gret engine and turbo, perfect for modifying if you are into that. Under 90k which it should have 120k but I have taken great care of this car and I don't drive it alot. All upgrades (pw sunroof, leather, power everything, etc..) Brand new paint job a couple of months ago due to scratches in the paint, have all records, brand new tires (yokohoma all season performance) bought 2 months ago. Email me at sellingmycar2004@hotmail.com I am in the DC/ Norhtern VA area.

I have personally owned the Hyundai Tiburon GTV6 for a year. In the time with the Silver Tib, I have not experienced the annoying problems that I had previously experienced with my current MSP...quite frankly, that was a damn nice car to have, not a problem in the world with it.
Although I do not have any experience with the Eclipse, I personally would suggest the Tiburon. It is within the same price range category and companies are starting to produce more products for it. I chose the MSP over it because I had a connection with the dealer and they only wanted me to put $500 down. The best part yet, my monthlies are still the same amount as when I had my Tib, and I have a better performing vehicle. Aside from all this, I do look back and miss the Tiburon... she had an attitude all her own. Just my 2 cents...hope this helps.

I didnt take the time to read this thread, but ill chime in with my opinion.
I just got back from cali to visit some friends and family. My friend matt has a 03 black tib GT (v6, auto). The first thing people say when they see that car(in black anyway) is," is that eurpean?". It does look exotic in black, almost ITalian. In my opinion its a awesome looking car, the interor is great, seats are nice, but the motor lacks. Its slow..... decent top end, but off the line, its very very slow. Chicks dig it.
The new eclipse....ummmmm. NO!
