Eclipse Spyder Vs Cobalt SS

so this super fast and furious looking eclipse spyder with a super spoiler get's beside me.

Traffic gets in the way (in mexico) and we're single file and then it opens up in front of me so I punch it, letting him know that it's on. He punches it and does a little OH IT'S ON flyby.. We line up beside each other when the traffic cleared and I hear him down shift, I rev match in second at about 60mph (eek) he punches it with no honks, I punch it too ( he gets the jump ) and then I put bus lengths on him.

The only reason I'm sharing this story is because of the photo that it comes with. . .
Enjoy

The Gen3+ is a disgrace to the Eclipse name. Sure the old ones were unreliable, but at least they were fast.

This, 2nd gear at 60mph? How long did you gas it half a second? Should've gone straight into 3rd. That eclipse isn't even a fair match for the SS.
