Opinion is divided about the 4WD turbo FTO - whether some actually existed or were just a myth. I'm leaning towards myth :wink:

I was thinking that the drivetrain from the eclipse mite be somewhat similar to the FTO. How much does it cost to do a LHD to RHD converstion, probably work out cheaper to bring in an eclipse and just convert it!

hmmmm now theres an idea :twisted:

The later model Eclipse was V6 powered.

The one in 2 Fast 2 Furious has a V6 ... so it must be true!
