Overall, the Eclipse GS-T has been a wonderful vehicle. Minor problems here and there. Getting close to 30 now, and looking for a bit more "mature" vehicle, but the car has been great. The 17-24 year old that buys mine will love it!

One of the best, if not the best, cars in its class. Fun, style and fast.

These are great cars for the enthusiasts out there. They're not the BEST handling sports cars around (they're a little heavy) but they provide great acceleration in turbo form. The clutch feels great and the shifter is smooth and strong, but they tend to have a slight difficulty getting into third gear. This particular body stlye is timeless, a real work of art. Mine has 110,000 miles and no problems at all. Mitsubishi makes a great car. Overall a very fun and reliable car.

97 ECLIPSE GS

I bought my car with 35,000 miles on it. In two years I put 74,000 miles on it and have had MAJOR issues. Since I bought it I have had to replace the transmission, all belts, brakes 4x, rotors 2x, power steering pump, and tires. It is a great, fun car to drive but it didn't hold up to well to all the highway driving. Would reccomend, but under 40k miles and with turbo..straight 4 is too small.
