TL-S vs. Eclipse

Ah, it feels soo good. I was out with a friend going to see some home theatre speakers, and this Eclipse pulls in front of me, hes got the debadged ass, the giant spoiler, the drop w/o camber kit, and 20 tints, with yellow stickers all over the place. So we both turn at the same light, he takes the turn wide into the second lane and I take the first lane and blow by him...we get to a light and he revs at me...I had him by 1~2 cars at 60 when I shut down (speed limit was 45)

It felt nice, even though with the way I pulled on him, I think he was driving the N/A car, but still...

Dunnou bout the tranny, never got a good look, because of the tints, but the way the car jerked at shift, I would guess the tranny was not a slushbox. As far as the year, I am not to good at telling them apart, suffice it to say that the car was a 2nd gen (positive on that) where they put the hump on the hood for the non-turbos as well as the turbo cars (ultimate poser)

Oh, I know that...this guy had the look of a modded Eclipse but his money was all spent in looks...I would rather have a plain looking car that is fast(hell, I'd rather drive a damn Pinto) than have a ricer look with the wing a foot tall. Even the STi and Evo spoilers look I would be far less embarrassed if my door fell off while I was opening it.
