Used 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS 2dr Hatchback Consumer Reviews
Great experience
It's been a fun car *and* reliable & economical to boot. Good-looking and practical! Have not had any repair issues even at 75K miles. It is sporty, yet can be roomy enough in a crunch. Lower the rear backrests, and there's considerable luggage space. Don't like the rear visibility esp. with the rear spoiler.
107,000 miles and it's a beast!
The eclipse is my favorite car. At first I wanted the gts but since it was a 6 cyl I held off but I tuned this baby up I got a full cat back exhaust and cold air intake on it which makes it fly like the wind. The car is really fun to drive and handles great. My only problem was that I had to replace the slave cylinder maybe the guy who had it before me did not know how to drive but I had it for almost 2 years and I love it.

Not so cheap, but cheerful
A great drive,always reliable (so far!). Good interior, feel, and stable handling and handles well over irregular surfaces. Had no trouble with internal electrics. I do a 75 mile daily commute and this car makes it feels really worth it - accompanied, of course, by a good quality sound system.
A great companion
I have really enjoyed the comfort of the car for the long haul, the appreciative comments and glances from passer-by and friends. The performance is perfect for me, it's reassuring - not freaky while still fun. The car also is a tank, I T-boned a vehicle at 40 and walked away. Car was rebuildable. The final note is that the interior needs tightened a bit for world class refinement and a bit more firmness in the front suspension to keep the wheels planted in wet weather... otherwise a great companion.
Still as fun as day one
Funny how there are a couple of reviews that complain about the interior workmanship. I have put over 20k per year on this can and it is as tight inside and out as the day I bought it...........not to mention as fun too. It's not a Porsche or a Ferrari but damn it's still fun. Plus it tops it's price range in getting looks.
