Perhaps it would be more helpful to tell the OP why not to get an Eclipse and why to get a King Air instead.

I am no expert on either but there is plenty of info on the Eclipse (and even more on the KA) available all over the web. The latest Eclipse versions seem to have ironed out many of the problems of the earlier ones However, you would really need to do your homework before getting one (or not). On the VLJ side of things I think I would prefer a Phenom 100. Much nicer cabin and the support from a big manufacturer. You can get a nice used one for two million if that's within your budget.
