I bought this car in 2000. I have had NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS it!! I'll make a long story short (unfortunately, this is the short version): The top leaks, after 2 1/2 years had to spend $1,000 for a new top - and still have problems with it going back smoothly, the window/door lock controller "box" has fallen into the door panel (twice, @ $120 each repair), A/C went out ($450 to replace), cam sensor went out @ around 40,000 miles & the car totally shut down ($200 expense). Along with the un-necessary repairs above, I have had this car towed a total of 9 times in the past 2 years....times that by $50 and you decide if buying the eclipse sypder is worth it!!!

The Mitsubishi Eclipse is a very nice,fun car to drive. I love to put the top down (especially because it helps you see the back of the car better). I passed the state inspection but the only problem is the brakes make a little bit of noise (technician will take a look to see whats going on)

Traded a V6 Accord coupe with all options. Biggest mistake ever! This car is affordable, but no fun. If I could do it all over again I'd get aGTS 5- speed, and then maybe I could get decent acceleration and around town drivability. I have to drive my GS with the manumatic constantly revving to 6,000RPM and I still think it is slow. Build quality is okay, and the interior has too many cheap plastics. I had to buy an aluminum dash kit just to dress it up. I'm going to keep the car, so I plan to add headers, a new exhaust, new intake and throttle body, and either a turbocharger or performance chip. It's the only way the car will be tolerable.
