2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross


Stratovarius

Recommended Posts

Eclipse cross was on my top list when I shop for Lancer GLX replacement, but I eventually went for Subaru XV.

 

XV has the same interior space and external size; comparable engine power; similar features to EC Sport but $15K cheaper at $95K. True AWD SUV with lowest center of gravity due to it's boxer engine and the top recommended car on Euro NCAP, JNCAP and IIHS.

 

One of the 2 reasons I removed EC from my list was this:

 

At 01:20, it flipped

Love the front and side profile of EC though, whenever I saw one on the road.

Suv has a higher tendency of slipping due to its higher cg, unless you lower it.

Hello! We booked an EC sport w/o s/r, pending Coe bidding. Excited.

 

Stuffs we got from dealer :

3k servicing credits

Magnetic window shade

Thinkware f200

 

There was clearance of elegance demo cars at 99k, manufactured early 2018 (per sales staff)

However the signage was taken down while we were there, not sure if this deal is still available.

I think it's part of CNY promo, there's also $1388 cash angpow, so deduct frm car price.

Am sharing some info for bros and sis thinking of changing Rims

The Original Rims weighed 12.2kg
Weighed it at the workshop on the spot when i changed rims

I saw an earlier post asking about tyre rim and size...
The stock rims is 7.5 inch wide, ideal for 215 and 225 with option to go 235mm
I changed mine to 8.0 inch, ideal for 225 and 235 with option to go 245mm 


just sharing...
hope you get your ideal setup!  :wub:
