I'll chime in on this one too, and agree 100% with Jay. I bought the ESi back in the day, because I was in love with the Eclipse body. I didn't know much about cars at the time, so I didn't know they came in turbo, all wheel drive models. Otherwise, I would turn back time and get the turbo one instead. That being said, my ESi IS a reliable daily driver, and I don't think I'll ever sell it. I too wanted to turbo my ESi, but in the end was a lot less hassle and money to just buy a TSi AWD.
