Sporty
Ten years and 55,000 miles, three batteries, 2 sets of tires. I just replaced the clutch which required the engine to be yanked and re-installed. The interior plastic is easily scratched - don't take dogs for a ride! Otherwise, the car has held up great. The Rockford Fosgate sound system is at 500 watts per channel is more than adequate with the subwoofer mounted in the back seat cushion. The car is very quick and agile on windy roads which makes it very fun to drive. Visibility out of the back window when the rood is up is limited by the small oval rear window, but at least it is glass and not Isinglass. The car is solid with no rattles after 10 years which is remarkable in and of itself, but being a convertible makes it even more impressive.

Turning heads - 2007 Eclipse Spyder
Heads are turning as my new 2007 Mitsubishi GT Eclipse Sypder rolls down the road. This new model year vehicle seems to draw a lot of interest from the public - and with good reason - the car is very attractive. I purchased the GT 6-speed manual and have thoroughly enjoyed the power and smooth shifting-ability. It has a nice growl to it as well. This car makes sense for all convertible seekers, but value may be the key. While the back seat is smaller, one can easily fit two small kids comfortably, two small ladies for a drive around town, or extra luggage on a trip. The trunk will fit two golf (mini) bags! Excellent... finally, the stereo - It rocks. Grab some music, flip the top and drive.

Slick
Drove several other makes and models before purchasing. This is my first Eclipse. I knew in the first five minutes of the test drive that this was the car I wanted. Lots of power with the 260 hp. Very comfortable seating. I love it.
Loves it
I originally leased my vehicle back in March 07' After almost 3 years, it's been so reliable and so much fun to drive that I decided to go ahead and purchase it before my lease was up. Great car, just wish it wasn't front wheel drive and had a better turning radius.
19 Seconds To a Smile
I looked at several convertibles before going with the Spyder. At the end it the Spyder vs. the MINI S. The tonneau top, superior AC, and vastly more comfortable seats gave the nod to the Spyder. The MINI S, although a quicker and tighter ride, was left to someone else willing to pay a hefty premium. The GT has plenty of power although it does not really kick in until the RPMs hit 4,000. Because of this I prefer that the TAC is on the left where I can see it. This comes in handy when playing with the Sportronic AT whilst driving with the top down and Rockford system UP. Go leather and get the heated seats. My dealer loaned me a cloth overnight and the heat was sorely missed.
