Remember when the Mitsubishi Eclipse was a AWD turbocharged coupe that combined a low price with high performance? Well apparently Mitsubishi remembers it, and It's about time, as the current Eclipse has more or less turned into a overstuffed two-door Galant in recent years, a trend they may be looking to reverse with the Concept RA.

Looks nice now... Question is, ... if it ever gets released, how badly are they going to strip it of it's good looks??? (And yes, ... this coming from a huge Mitsu fan... :-) First off, .... really think they'll sell the car with a $4000 set of 21" wheels, .... stock?? :-P Duh... They also did the typical "make the interior look extremely futuristic at a cost WAY above our ability to manufacture.." That'll be gone on release, guaranteed. Oh, ... and get rid of the deisel... (JMO.)

I resent that "We'll forgive you for the third and fourth generation Eclipses". Some people just don't realize how good the Mitsu V6s are. Yes, a FWD drivetrain does take a lot out of the potential of an engine, but it's rather unfair to even imply that the 4G is NOT a high performer. Bolt-on N/A 4Gs DO compete with the Evo on the straightaway. It's not difficult to achieve when you're putting +/- 230whp to the ground. TDI? Uhm... keep the V6. I couldn't care less about a factory MHI turbo.
