"'Glad I Did"

I was in the market for a new summer car and the Eclipse Sypder was one of many options I was considering. After careful review and a pleasant Mitsubishi dealer I purchased my 2007 Eclipse Sypder GT right off the showroom floor. I left the next day and went to Texas on a road trip and this car is amazing to drive. It handles well and has plenty of power. I went to San Antonio, TX so once there I was able to put the top down and really enjoy the car.

After looking at many others we love this vehicle. It is appropriately powered allowing its acceleration to be smooth and consistent while the handling is precise and effortless, all adding up to an outstanding driving experience. Its updated styling inside and out appeals to all age groups - including this 50ish couple who love to drive lots of different vehicles. Its gas mileage is good even considering the need to use premium fuel. I appreciate the attention to detail and ease of maintenance.

I was looking at the Solstice, Sky and the Mustang. The quality and materials of the American cars are nothing compared to the Japanese. Also, the shifting was much tighter in the Eclipse than any of the others. Plus, you get 6 gears with the Mitsubishi and 5 with the American models.

Nice car, but

I loved this car when I bought it brand new, however, there are too many blind spots when driving with the top up. I have had this car for 8 months and I have to take it in, the top hydraulic system is out already and needs to be checked. I feel the frame of the car is weak. The car is so low that the nose scraps on everything. This car is an accident waiting to happen with all the blind spots. Other than that, the car is beautiful and gets lots of looks

This will be my 4th Mitsubishi and I've said it before and I'll say it again...they are highly under rated! I have no complaints about any of them. I had two 30000GTs, then I bought an 06 Elipse that I loved and now I will be picking up my new 2007 GT convertible and I can't wait! It only has 25K miles on it so it's practically new. Its red with black leather and 6speed! I'm going to have alot of fun this summer!!!! I know already from reading all the reviews that this will be another great car from Mitsubishi!
