And you're just 21? You don't stick with stuff very long, do you? I guess it's not a shock that you don't like the XF.

Haha Andrew your so right.. It's funny.. my previous car before the Eclipse with 18's was a '92 Mercury Villager minivan, Nautica Edition, that I got from my grandfather when he passed away.. It was sweet.. silver.. blue and yellow nautica leather.. running boards.. it actually had a screen and VCR in it.. my grandparents used to tour the country in it..

It was awesome.. this was like '95.. I was 17.. and I worked my *** off all summer to put some 17" chrome MOMO arrows on it.. so awesome at the time.. they were huuuge. I know it's a van but that made it even sweeter. I had the middle seat taken out and I used to cruise around with 10 of my friends in that thing..

MoparAlleyCat - I like your Eclipse.. Nice kit too.. I think that kit came out shortly before I sold mine and I was actually considering keeping the car and getting that kit or something like it.. The fender flares rock... but by 2001 my car was done in.. over 80k miles.. I went through like 4 or 5 trannies and I just felt that sooner or later the wheels were just gonna fall off.. so I got rid of it.. then on the drive to the buyers house the tranny or clutch or something started to go again.. luckily I got it there and got my cash and bolted.. I'll never own a mistu again because that car had so many problems that were not caused by me in any way..
