It's weird, I think the 4g is by far the best looking but I like the 2g the best.
Easiest one yet. Gen 2, even if it's a red x
Edit: nevermind, now I see it
Easily 2G
I know a guy who's dropping a 1g engine into a '97 Talon. I guess the 2g engines are the ones with crankwalk.
2nd, easily.
New one (4th gen)
2g, no doubt.
2g without any hesitation!
2g. The 4g is a fat pig, and i've heard its not even slightly engaging to drive.
2g, with the 3g a close second.
2g for me aswell.
1g looks awesome, I would love to buy a nice one.

The 2G was the last one to offer the GSX, which was AWD and turbocharged. It is therefore the last of the true DSMs.
From what I understand, the 1G had the best engine and the 2G had the best handling and looks. 2G for me.

I thought the 1G and 2G had the same engine.
The 4GXX tall block was the same thing, but the heads were different, IIRC.
Why am I the only vote for the 1st gen Eclipse/Talon/Laser? Has everyone else here been hypnotized by Fast and Furious movies?
The MOPAR version of the 1G gave me my first good spanking at triple digit speeds, I had a '90 Celica at the time, and the guy walked me from 70-won't say here. I voted 2G b/c they're like an icon, with a cult following a ton of aftermarket parts--I consider it the import answer to the Mustang.
That must be it. We can't go 3 minutes on this board without someone verbally masturbating over the Fast and the Furious. :rolleyes:

No, the 1st gen just looks too bland and late 80's for most people's tastes.
Give me the 4g.
1g..pops had a blue Laser RS that I remember.
I voted for the new one. I like it a lot.
