Still Love it Like When it Was New

I fell in love with the style when this version of the Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder came out. The front stylying was like a mini Jaguar. Just a fine style package. It has never been in the shop for any repairs after 3 1/2 years. this car is a perfect runner that still turns heads. Its quality has been excellent. It is a great car for function and fun.
Love my Spyder

I have loved my Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder since I bought it. It handles great for inner city driving and its gas mileage is great. I'll have this car for a long time. The only draw back that I can see is the spoiler when the top is up, it creates even more blind spots. I also live where it snows A LOT, and would be nice to have side mirrors that defrost like my old VW Golf. I don't seem to have problems with the turning radius that many people do, and have fixed most of the blind spot issues with placing a small round mirror on the side mirror. I have a 4-cylinder engine with the standard transmission and the acceleration is great. Given the chance I would buy another one tomorrow and tell anyone looking for a new car to check this one out.
Cracking dash

This was a nice car until it hit 45,000 miles. Bad enough a rebuilt clutch cost me $2,000, but the dash is cracked like it had 245,000 miles on it and the posts on each side of the windshield are flaking. I have taken really good care of this car and it is worse off than cars I've owned for twice as long. If you buy a Mitsubishi, buy it new and get rid of it before you've owned it for 5 years.
Great Fun!

I bought my previously owned Spyder from a dealer, after driving the same model as a rental. It is a really fun vehicle to drive, with semi-automatic 4 speed transmission and powerful V6 engine. It handles very well. I had a transmission fluid leak repaired, but that is the only mechanical problem I've encountered. I would definitely recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for a fun sports car convertible. Warning: This is NOT a comfortable vehicle for more than a driver and one passenger.
Great for the money

I am happy with the interior of the car, body style with the exception of the blind spot. Can fit 4 people, back seat is a little rough with the top down. Must use Premium fuel. This is my first sports(type)car and I am happy with it and have had it over a year now. Great in the snow so far too!! All leather and 6 disc stereo with controls on the steering wheel, make it about all I want. (though seat warmers would be nice) Even has a Trunk that fits the family groceries.
