BW64, i had a '90 AWD Eclipse, ran it hard for over a hunred K miles, put on a nice 16G, full Koni etc suspension, Profec, Greddy stuff, nice rims, etc. It was a comfortable, fast and exceedingly reliable car, sold it to a girl in Canada, and it is still running hard and well up north for her.

I respect the cars, i know of the "fast with class" motto of the DSM's, i used to run at the drag strip, and have seen DSM's like mine mid 10's i in the quarter.

But you are on a forum devoted pretty much exclusively to cobra replicas, so you can't reall expect much interest in the DSM cars here. I would suspect that in time, as you progress with your own cobra replica, that you will come back here for information and assistance, and even perhaps advice. You might think about letting go of some of your aggrivation about CC members attitude about virtually any other car. We are Cobra guys, not Porsche, not Viper, not Corvette guys, and we are not on CC to talk up other cars, even though i know of two SPF owners who also drive the new Evo''s.

There is a time and a place for everything, and this forum is about our passion, so you might use it for yours too, and leave your enthusiasm for your DSM's on their forum, like DSM.org, where i used to post all the time.

We stay off the Porsche forums, the 'Vette forums, and other enthusiast forums because there is no good thing to come out of us posting on their territory.

Welcome to our brotherhood, and enjoy you replica, and let us know if you have any questions or the like.
