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.

I absolutely LOVE this car! I bought this car in 1997 when it had 36,000 miles on it. It now has 192,000 and still starts right up even on the coldest of days. Besides routine maintenance, I have never had to dump any money into this girl. Unfortunately, the Northeastern winters have taken their toll on the body, as it now has extensive rust damage on the undercarriage, including a significant hole in the exhaust...but she is STILL going! As I face the inevitable and begin shopping for a newer car, I will grieve the loss of this old friend.

This car is the worst car I ever had. When I purchased it, the car was perfect and when a few month came by my sunroof wouldn't work anymore. Now my car is in the shop til this day. I've had my clutch fixed 3 times in 3 years, my alternator, my a/c is out which will cost me another thousand to get it fixed, and much more. This car has cost me over 5500 (in 3 yrs).
Big attention getter...

I have had the car for a week and i get nothing but positive responses from people on the street because the car is mildly souped up in/out, specially when people hear the turbo's blow off valve go off(aftermarket). Im 6' 2 & its a lil hassle to get in but once im in i have plenty of leg room. I have pics, just email me at Cristorey34 at hotmail

This car has a very bad rap or I just lucked out. Bought w/ 43K, it just turned 80K; mechanically it has been a dream. Turbo needs frequent oil changes (2K to 2.5K per). Tune @ 60Kmi. was expensive. Ball joints recalled as a freebie. Body parts a bit shoddy; all still works but things like the cruise control button don't always work on the first press -- finally does and it's ok for a day. Moisture problems??? A/C, heat are great. Tiny things go wrong. Engine/drive train fab. Turbo gives a kick that current models don't have. On the road it is rock solid. Up to this mileage, the Eclipse is the only trouble-free and reliable car I've ever owned.
