I honestly don't think i could have chosen a better car for my purposes. I am stationed at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas and this car is perfect for all of my every day needs and also is sporty enough to impress all my friends. If you have the choice between this and the Mustang choose the Eclipse, something went wrong in the early 1980's because the Mustang just went down hill and has not recovered yet.

An average sort of "Sport" Convertible

The Eclipse Spyder is relatively fun to drive, but ranks below other sport convertibles I have owned, e.g., the BMW Z3. The size is more accomodating, but design features such as the huge right blind-spot and the raised door jambs make this car a little uncomfortable. Handling is good and tight, as a sports cars should be. However, gas mileage on my particular car is lower than I have experienced on similar vehicles/engines. All in all, a fun mid-level car that is probably a few thousand dollars too expensive (even though I did get a pretty good deal).

Who says you can't drive a convertible in Michigan. This car is fun to drive, amazingly quiet for a convertible and always turns heads.
