Used 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder Consumer Reviews
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)

This car is awesome! It is the coolest car i've ever owned, I actually own a real head turner now! :) THe best part is, on insurance, its not even considered a sports car!!
Spyder GT- It turns heads.
I bought this vehicle in May and haven't regreted it for a second. I debated back and forth between the coupe and the spyder before deciding on the rag top, and I'm glad I did. This car will DEFINATELY get you attention. When you drive in the Eclipse, sure, heads turn, but when you drive in the Spyder- HEADS SNAP!
Not disappointed
I'm completely satisfied with my Spyder. Was a devout Pontiac customer until I woke up and realized what I was paying for a Grand Am. My Spyder is sporty, eye-catching and far exceeds my expectations. Great car - will never return to Pontiac!
