A champion right out the gate
The 2008 Spyder GT V6 manual is a striking beast right out the gate - very powerful, torquey, yet a smooth and cushioned ride. I've driven the 2007 model as well. The 08 adds 18" wheels in place of 17". The handling is phenomenal. The smooth, quick stick and power make this an incredible sports convertible. The top operates deftly. Sirius sat radio is also standard. Downshifting and passing is joy. My car is black and I keep it washed. It gets stares wherever I drive in southern california.
Fun in my 60's
This is the third Eclipse spyder( 1998 and 2003) I have owner. Traded my 2003/manual for the 2009 automatic 3.8 V6 spyder. Just love the auto trans (tired of the shifting in city) Never too late to tan the top of your head. Get one and enjoy the outdoors. This car like the ones that it follows has been trouble free, spirited and a pleasure to drive. See very few on the streets and mine draws attention everywhere I go.

Real Review on a great car
First off this is not a dealer review. I saw the Pontiac Solstice in a Bon Jovi video and it got me thinking I should have a new car. I went out and test drove the Pontiac. Next I drove the Spyder. There was no comparison. In the Spyder you have enough room in the truck to put a set of golf clubs and some extra stuff. Also you have enough room in the back seat to squeeze someone if you have to for a short ride or more realistically use for additional storage. I have no complaints except for the blind spot when the top is up.
Most Fun in the Sun
This car is a blast... and a real head-turner. It's probably the most under rated/reported sports car in this price range. I wanted the V6 because the car's weight seemed to justify the beefier engine. This baby along with the manual 6speed can really push you into your seat when accelerating through the gears. Much more power and speed then I anticipated... but great Fun! Since summer the top is always down and the sound system rocks. Hey this is what having a convertible sports car is all about. I love it!
2008 Mitsubishi Spyder
Just purchased the vehicle within the past week and love it! It's fun, challenging, all the things I'm looking for in a new sports car.
