Great Little Fun Car!

2009 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GS 2dr Convertible (2.4L 4cyl 4A)

I have only owned this car almost a month. Seems sturdy, rides nice. Seems to be plenty of leg room in the front. I love the convertible top and ease of operation. I got the GS instead of GT because of the lower octane (the GT requires 91). GS seems to have plenty of power for my use. Blind spot in right rear makes you really look when changing lanes though. Also, beware of adding a factory spoiler, can't see out the back, even when top down... right in the way! I added camera back up. Standard fosgate radio,Gs needs better antenna, anti skip (would upgrade if doing over). Burned Cd's skip A LOT. Key had remote buttons and chip in it... pricey. Really fun to drive though and would buy again.

I've had both GS and GT models in Coupe and Convertible. Owned 4 of these and I keep going back. Very reliable cars that are great looking, fun, affordable and have the best sound system II have heard in a stock vehicle. My favorite of these is the Spyder GT. Press the button and the top opens up and stows away. The handling and power is great in this car. A nice sports car for the money. Get one while you still can.

This GT Spyder in rave red turns heads and garners compliments during every outing. It's my 4th Eclipse. Fun and reliable cars with style like no other. 650 watt Rockford Fosgate is amazing as well. Mitsubishi was ahead of it's time. Don't listen to the poor review on this car. The editor doesn't even know this car is equipped with a 3.8L V6. Get one and enjoy it.
