what damn idiots...wouldn't it be smarter to have the hatch and hood open the other way...i mean...you get out of the car and you have to walk altheway around to open that shiz...stupid designers...other than that...i think it looks pretty neato...for a concept...now, we all know it's not going to look anything like this later on down the road.

CD5Passion · 02-18-2004, 11:11 PM

or be quite as powerful as they want, but I agree with the hatch, but hey its a concept and what good would a concept be without the crazy outlandish sh1t

Kyle · 02-18-2004, 11:16 PM

"The Eclipse Concept-E's front wheels are powered by a 3.8-liter V-6 engine that features Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing and lift Electronic Control (MIVEC). Driving the rear wheels is a rear-mounted E-Boost electric motor which provides an additional 200 horsepower, for a total output of 470 horsepower. Because it is not affected by gear changes, the throttle-actuated electric rear motor gives the Eclipse Concept-E a constant source of power when it's needed, which directly translates to higher, more efficient performance."

sounds awesome!
no loss of power between shifts...cool

CD5Passion · 02-18-2004, 11:19 PM

jesus I didnt even read that, I wet myself thinking of it
thats agreat idea to have basically two engines but it would be a bit pricier to maintenance and what not, but it's elec so whatever

Kyle · 02-18-2004, 11:22 PM

i wish i had a 200 hp electric motor for my civy...well...i wish i had a 150 hp motor...fuck it...125 would be just fine too...lol

Fatal070 · 02-18-2004, 11:28 PM

looks like a space shuttle....:o

*pdiggitydogg* · 02-18-2004, 11:28 PM

its ugly in person...Ive seen it

Kyle · 02-18-2004, 11:29 PM

yeah...it is pretty ugly...most concepts are...but i'm sure they'll tone it down a bit...

*pdiggitydogg* · 02-18-2004, 11:43 PM

thats not what the rep told me when I asked about a final look ideas

Kyle · 02-18-2004, 11:45 PM

what he say?

GT40FIED · 02-18-2004, 11:50 PM

Good gawd that looks gay. And why not make that power all come from one motor? Adding a second "backup" motor just leaves more shit to go wrong.

*pdiggitydogg* · 02-18-2004, 11:57 PM

along the lines that "its planned to look almost as you see it"

then he said something like "the eclipse has always been a tuner's car on the edge"
but he didnt like it when I laughed and said "What about the 2001 series?"

02-19-2004, 03:20 AM

the 2005 Acura RL will be 400 HP combined, 300 Horse and then 2 50 horse electric motors on demand at the rear wheels, All wheel drive with the fuel consumption of 2wd, that's my kind of idea

GT40FIED · 02-19-2004, 03:58 AM

Didn't this idea pop up on the NSX concept? A real engine that was supplimented by an electric motor? To put it simply, I don't like it. Like I said, it's just more stuff to go wrong and bigger bills when that happens. The NSX was called the worst bang-for-the-buck car available and this is their solution? Why not just make a better engine instead of slapping extra motors where they shouldn't be?

MAXed Out · 02-19-2004, 08:01 AM

yeah i don't like them. I would of kept the older ones they look much better!

AkimboStylee · 02-19-2004, 08:06 AM

i agree

no the new NSX price is dropping down to 60 for the V6 and 75k for the V8....yes i said V8, that is what it supposed to be on the horizon for 2005

no electric motors for the NSX, straight Up Displacement

Fatal070 · 02-19-2004, 11:22 AM

after some time cars will be stock with 900 hp ...

AkimboStylee · 02-19-2004, 11:30 AM

some cars will be required to have you sign your will....

GT40FIED · 02-19-2004, 11:32 AM

Speaking of which, where do I sign up for a Veyron? Lol. 1000hp quad turbo W16...why wouldn't ya?

Racing Rice · 02-20-2004, 10:02 AM

I personally think the concept is sweet, atleast the pictures of it.

Whiteclipse99 · 02-20-2004, 11:15 AM

I kind of dig it. I saw some pictures of the concept a little while ago in Car and Driver and I thought it looked pretty cool then. Although, I will never buy another Mitsubishi.

mylittlecivic · 02-20-2004, 01:54 PM

it ugly but looks nifty

thermal · 02-20-2004, 02:43 PM

If that car ever comes out, I dont think it will have 400hp or over.... be lucky to see it at 300.....

02-20-2004, 05:00 PM

This car was ugly.

02-20-2004, 10:24 PM

it's really fuggly, i think i'll sway that engine into my car:o
