No i didnt bother reading it, thought it was just common info on the new eclipse, but i guess not.
The heading of the tread can be misleading sometimes. Suggest better title.

I seriously cant think of a FF car that has around 260ftlb of torque. 260 is far too much for a car like that. There are a few, but they are all based on sedans where its weight is balanced more evenly for good traction. Mits seems to always having problems in their engineering dept.

Info:
Curb weight: 3560 lb
Weight distribution, F/R: 60.1/39.9%
Curb weight per horsepower: 13.5 lb

So thats 2,136 pounds in the frontal half, and 1,420.44 in the rear. Damn, thats calling out for understeering big time.

Is it possible that mits. was intended to make the eclipse awd in the first place?
