Long ago there was a car. A beautiful car? Yes. A mysterious car? Nothing could be closer to the truth. No one quite knew where that Mitsubishi Eclipse had come from. Some said it had miraculously appeared one day, others claimed that God Himself had driven it for a period of time. Regardless of its origins, through a series of events that The Fates themselves could not prevent from occurring, this Eclipse was purchased by a Mr. Toni Westbrook.

Even after driving the Eclipse but a few times, Toni realized the true beauty, power, and majesty that lay hidden deep within the complex system of gears, camshafts, and twisting hoses. This car was more than a car, this car was a unique occurrence in the universe, more than a machine - it had a soul - and it deserved a name. The heart of the beast was strapped into the backseat; the legend was born, and it bore a name, El Poco Demonio.

Toni and Poco travelled the lands for many years, taking part in wonderous explorations and exciting adventures. The faithful car was always at Toni's side whenever he needed it the most. Then one day, on a cold, early Spring morning, as the two eagerly drove through the winding country, the aged Poco sputtered its last breath and came to a halt. It had known its fate was approaching fast, but chose to keep it from Toni, so that their last moments might be happy and carefree ones, as Toni had always remembered. On the corner of Canney road, Poco died.

Toni was deeply disheartened, but he suddenly remembered the true nature of Poco. Poco was not merely the summation of parts that was the car known as 'Mitsubishi Eclipse GS'. Poco was the essence that embodied the car. That essence would never die, but Toni had to act fast. Rushing to a place he counted on, he found a new body for Poco to live life within again! But would it work? He and the new Eclipse GT drove out to where Poco's spirit was lingering, waiting for his friend to return, at the ominous Canney Corner. Immediately, the car's engine burst into song as Poco settled into its wonderful new body. Yet Poco was still hollow, for a part of it was missing. Toni knew what it was - though Poco had its soul back, it was missing its heart. Quickly, Toni moved the beast from the backseat of the now empty shell of an Eclipse GS to the new car, and both Toni and Poco were happy once again. The two drove off into the sunset, leaving behind only the faint hum of a happy engine.
