Those first gen eclipse/talon/lasers are sweet. the gsx/awd models are suppose to be rather sturdy. I've seen them over here in the states with some pretty big turbos. A fwd base model was almost my first car as a teen. Now if I was looking for one I'd try to get the "Plymouth Laser" model, just trigger all the jdm fanboys. This on you're looking at is clean, you should get it.
