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.

I bought this car because of it's looks. I do not recommend to buy as used car. After 80k miles replaced transmission. Sunroof leaks. Now at 100k miles the car sometimes will turn but not start. I have taken it to couple of mechanics and they can't find the problem. I will be paying dealer's repair price to figure this one out.

Excellent balance of styling and performance. AWD is nice for cornering, accelleration, and poor weather. Turbo is always nice for 0- 60. These car also have the potential of being quicker than a nice Porsche with a few modifications. Simply a pleasure to drive. I haven't had any problems with the car, except improper throttle adjustment. The the person who owned the car before me decided to play with throttle without knowing what they were doing. Overall, this car is a great buy. I don't recommend the RS and GS models, but the GST and GSX are great cars for the money. The turbo will surprise you.
love it

The car is great for someone that needs a little get up and go, without spending an arm and a leg.
