The Best Car Ever

The mitsubishi spyder is one of the best sports cars that I have ever driven since I got my driver's liscence. It is a very comfortable car for me. I can't speak for no one else because everyone else has a different opinion on comfortability. I really like they way this car was built, the style, the speed, and design. This is the best sports car by far.

We love the convertible top feature, Never having owned a conveertible earlier in life, this is a real treat for us. I like the handling of the car on the open road as there is no or little wind buffering, even from trucks. I do not like the wind spoiler on the trunk as it interfeers with visibility, easpically in night time driving.

Spyder GTS vs Mercedes 560SL

Price vs. Value caused me to invest in a Spyder GTS over a Lexus SC430. While I will miss being seen in my Mercedes 560SL I really prefer driving the SPY

Great Design... poor performance

First off I will state i have been totally loyal to the Mitsubishi Eclipse Eclipse since the debut, and in fact I have owned nothing but Eclipse's starting with the 1993 Eclipse. The 2004 is an awesome body style, definitly fun to drive. You will love all the looks you get on the street. However, Performance has become an issue. Acceleration is really a drag from a dead stop, and if you buy an automatic the gears shift a lil early for my taste, so i recommend buying the 5-speed. So though i am proud to have bought it, i'd say over all I'm disappointed with this years Eclipse, I say go back to the second generation Eclipse..those were real cars.
