Car was bought used with 28000. Took out an extra warranty which took care of all the quirks in the beginning. Other than normal maintenance, this car is the best car we have ever owned. Love driving it. The pickup is great.

I got my 2000 LS in 2003 to replace the 1993 Grand Am that my parents gave me as a first car. For the first two years that I owned it I drove the socks off the thing but it easily took the abuse of a 17 year old guy and his friends. Once I got into college I took more interest in the car since I knew I needed a car that would last me into the beginning of my career. With a nice wash and wax, this car gets me compliments everywhere I go. Take care of this car and it will take care of you. On the highway I find the acceleration to be amazing between 60-80 and I can hang with most Euro cars and blow the socks off the other JP cars. Only prob is at 60,000 mi it's going to be $1100+ service

An Excellent Car Worth Considering!

An excellent car with a beautiful exterior and an interior with first-rate materials and a warm, luxurious look. Ample interior storage. As of four years and 29,000 miles, reliability has been excellent. The ride is very smooth and quiet and the seats are very comfortable. Handling is very competent. The car is fun to drive energetically. Acceleration is very strong and immediate with power at any speed and shifts that are always where they should be. I get 20 MPG in town and 29 MPG on the highway. The stereo is first-rate, with very good imaging and sound quality. You should test drive a Diamante before buying any luxury car. You will be amazed at how good it is.

Great Car for the money

Love the car but hate to see it losing value. OEM parts are ridiculously expensive and aftermarkets are hard to come by. Gas mileage is not all that great (20- 22 MPG) and heater core problem is starting to surface. I would recommend this car if you can find an exceptional deal .

The best sedan....

Most people when they're looking for sedans and cool cars people just look for Honda Civics, Subaru, etc. and undoubtedly those are cool cars, but my car, a 1999 Mitsubishi Diamante, beats all of them. Little Story (You can skip it, the review is at the bottom): When I was 10, my dad's car, Diamante, began fading in the background as he began driving a different car. I loved that car so much and when my dad said he was going to sell it I knew I couldn't let that happen. I would sit in that car and listen to music almost every day imagining the day I could start it and put the gear into drive. So eventually I became impatient and I took the keys just so I could see how it starts and sounds. It did not start. I was so set on making sure that car worked, I began building my knowledge of cars and eventually grabbed my dad's tools and started working on it. I took the entire transmission out, as well as other components which had no correlation with the real issue of why it wouldn't start. Which ended up being the fuel pump, and the battery was getting weak. I was so excited to have found the issue and the reason. I searched for the fuel pump and battery compatible with the car and found both of them at Oreilly. The only problem was that I had no ride because I was working on this car with no permission and I couldn't drive myself. Since I was so excited, I decided to walk 4.5 miles to my nearest Oreilly with the $175 I had saved up. Bought the stuff and walked home, a car battery and fuel pump in hand. Once I arrived at home I installed everything in about 15 minutes. As soon as I heard the stall I got so mad. I breathed in and out as I turned the key in the ignition with everything I had, mind and soul. It started...I screamed so loud in joy it scared my dogs. Now 10 years later this car has been running incredibly without having to take it to an auto shop. Not only was this the car that started my career, it is the best sedan. Review: This sedan is incredible. It is so fast and sporty and honestly pretty good on gas for a v6. I know speed isn't the main thing people look for in cars but believe me, this thing can win some races on stock. This car beat my dad's Mercedes R350, my mom's BMW X1, (which is a twin-turbo), and my sister's Volkswagen CC sport. I'm not entirely sure if it's just because i'm a better driver or the car is really that much stronger and faster, but I completely gapped my friend's Hemi Charger on the track. This car is the best first car for only $768-2800, and just an overall incredible car
