Conclusion
• In my research I have found out that the
Mitsubishi Eclipse is more expensive then
it’s opponent the Toyota Celica, Although its
can be considered a more loyal car than the
Toyota Celica. The Toyota Celica is more
affordable than its opponent the Mitsubishi
Eclipse. The Toyota Celica has better
specifications by my research, compared to
the Mitsubishi Eclipse.
