Up to now vehicle was great. I was just towed by AAA to Mitsubishi dealer in Coconut Creek. Car had about seven recalls(some major) Wish I would have researched this before I bought it. Dealer said the wiring to the ignition failed. Just great when I am driving 75 MPH on the Fl Turnpike. Lets see what happens.
Poor Quality, lots of recalls and TSB's

The car is riddled with design defects, such as: Had to put bushings on rear axle do to crackling noise Problems with front brakes causing loud popping sounds. RIMS cracking even though haven't hit anything and Mitsu won't admit to it. Hoping NHTSA will live up to it responsibility and require a recall. Just look at number of recalls and TSB's on NHTSA site to see the quality of this car is horrendous. and last is the DEPRECIATION. This car took a big drop in depreciation last year and now I know why. Won't buy Mitsu again because of all of the above
BIG BANG! (for the buck)

The Spyder handles great, picks up quick, is easy on the eyes and not too costly (to purchase or drive). My very first car was "66 Mustang GT w/ a 3 speed 289. Since then I've driven tons of musle cars: Chargers,Road Runners,Cobras,Novas,Cudas GTOs and many others over my 25 years+ and I gotta say, the Spyder while not as powerfully built as those past bangers it is just plain more fun! It's almost too easy to drive At 5' 10" the cock- pit fits me well. It's very comfortable with the controls easily accessable. Finally, while there's nothing overly fancy about the cock-pit,if you keep it clean it'll still impress your girlfriend(s)
