Used 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse Consumer Reviews
Love
I love this car, no problems. All wheel drive and a turbo, that accelerates like nothing. Add an air intake and an exhaust system, and your car is now better than all others.
HUGE MISTAKE
I bought this car in June 2002 with 99,000 miles on it. I have not had my car for 3 months due to waiting on the claims process to replace the cylinder head and camshafts ($2000 repair estimat). The 2nd day I had the car the torque converter went out and had to be replaced. I've had to have all belts replaced and pulleys. The inside door handle fell off once I had the car for about a month, the sunroof won't slide open/closed anymore (that took about 2 months since ownership to break), and the right window is about to break-it takes about 10 minutes to roll down the window. Other than that, what a great car!
Love It!!!
I purchased the car when it was 2 yrs. old and had 25K miles. At the time of purchase, I also included the extended maintenance plan, which I highly recommend and which more than paid for itself over the years. My car is a copper color, which is very unusual and definitely gets attention. I had cruise control & power sun roof installed and have loved driving this car ever since. I have had many people tell me that they like this body style much better than the newer one (and I agree). Since the car now had 70K miles, and is paid for, I hope she (yes, she!) will continue to carry me for a few more years.
fun reliable car
Many people have been telling me horror stories about their experiences with eclipses but I really have nothing bad to say about mine. I bought the car three years ago with 50,000 miles on it and have since put 60,000 on it. I personally drive the car very hard and due to this have had to replace brakes and clutch but that is my fault. otherwise i have had no problems.
its been good to me
I bought my eclipse in 3/97. It had 28000 miles on it. Now I have 147000. I never had to do any major work. The car runs good and still looks good.
