1994 Mitsubishi Eclipse 2dr Hatchback
I have owned this car for 12 years and it's still going strong! It still looks sharp and still hums! It has given me no trouble whatsoever. I recommend purchasing a Mitsubishi. They are designed well and work perfectly! Give them a try!

1994 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS 2.0 2dr Hatchback
I bought the car "brand new" with 6 miles. Unique color-Savannah green. I pampered the car and it took car of me. I kept car garaged and covered; thus no rust or body issues. Had to replace headliner due to drooping. Installed racing seats and indash DVD player with new speakers & sub. My mech put 2" headers, in case I need more power. Car looks and performs better than the newer … Eclipses! Inside and Out! 1994 and older Eclipses' have the bigger body w/more room. If taken care of, these are excellent cars! If abused; then just like any other car, problem.

1994 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS 2dr Hatchback
I have had this a car since 1998 and it
handles like a dream. If I had known
that time belts needed to be changed
every 60,000 miles, I would not have
had any issues with my car. She runs
wonderfully and has never let me down.
I can dress up or casual and still look
great in the sleek design. I love this
style the best of all the models since
this one.
Non-turbos are still nice

1993 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS 2.0 2dr Hatchback
I bought a 1993 Mistubishi Eclipse GS
with 138000 miles on it in September of
2000. Now at first, the mileage seemed
high, but after doing some research i
came to the conclusion that most of
these cars had high miles because
young, prolific drivers were owning
them. In the three years i've owned
the car, the only problems i've had
(keep in mind this is an eleven year …
old car) were the slave cylinder of the
clutch assembly began leaking, and the
bearings in the auto tensioner pulley
were bad. a grand total of $120
in mitsu parts over a three year
period, on an eleven year old car.
That's reliablility.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 1994 Mitsubishi Eclipse, so we've included reviews for other years of the Eclipse since its last redesign.
