oh, and the amount of kids that have the ability to buy a brand new car is slim to none.
and sadly, that's the car's main focus group.
older people (the ones that can afford it) in general dont want a fast compact. it's an EXTREMELY hard market to sell too.
the 3g eclipse was invented for this very reason, the 2g's were quick, little, and better looking cars that appealed more to teenagers who couldnt afford the car.
so they gave it a v6, made it more roomy inside, and toned down it's style to appeal to the 35+ yearolds that want an inexpensive sports car
