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.

Its a good car, no problems. I got the 4 cylender and it competes well against other cars on the road, but I wish I'd gotten the 6 cyl manual trans. I get lots of complements on how good it looks. Having a convertable is loads of fun. You wouldn't want to have people in the back on a regular basis, but it can be done.

Fun car, you would really enjoy driving. Excellent going out in groups. Average power, and great handling. Great value for price it is offered at.
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

The 2001 Mitsubishi Spyder GT Convertible is one of the most fun vehicles I have ever had the opportunity to own and drive. The 200 hp V6 engine with a 5 spd manual transmission has more than enough power. It accellerates rapidly at higher rpm. It launches from 60mph to 100mph in 4th gear with ease. I've driven up mountain roads in Tennessee at 130mph with the top down and had a blast. The precise steering handles sharp curves easily. At 6'2" I have plenty of leg room. The interior styling looks great from the drivers seat and I love driving this car.
