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.

This has been the worst car I have bought to date. The engine lacks the power (I own a Non-turbo GS with an automatic :( ). In the last three years I have replaced the following: alternator starter main computer ball joints (uppers) tie rod ends struts (front) crankshaft pulley head gasket main and rod bearings Total money spent on these repairs:$3600 Currently the car has 79,000 miles on it, and hope to sell it by the time it hits 80,000!

I bought this Eclipse a little over a year ago and loved it to death. It had 115K on it with 14K on a rebuilt engine and I did not have any problems with it whatsoever. I brought the miles up to 128k and could tell this car had a LOT of life left in it if it wasn't for a truck plowing into it and totaling it! The seats were very comfortable (back seat space is limited, but the seats are so cushy!), very large trunk, sporty but cute exterior design, and good gas mileage (close to 400/tank with mostly highway miles). Only downsides were that U-turns were a little difficult, a somewhat large blind spot on the side, and the shift knob came very close to the CD deck which was annoying.

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.

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!
