have had the car since 1999 and the paint has oxidized more than once and the dahboard has 3 major cracks from the cheap plastic used. it is out of warranty, but we all know that the paint ahould not oxidize in this time frame. the dashboard cracks are getting bigger each day and they won't touch that due to the warranty issue. Mitsubishi...stand by your product and don't be so cheap with the materials.

I bought this in 2003 with 28k miles. Always get regular service done on this car and I now have 104k miles on it. The car has held up well and it still looks great compared to others on the road. I plan to keep it going as long as I can unless something major turns up. It's been reliable and is still fun to drive.

I love my eclipse. It is fun to drive, and the fuel economy is great. The only maintenance that I have had to do over the last 2 years and after 56K miles, is oil changes and tire rotations. I have had to replace the tires, but not due to any front end problems or anything like that. The downfall is that is sits so low to the ground that sometimes other drivers don't see you - I have almost been broad sided a few times - but that's what comes with the territory of owning a sports car I guess.
Poor Interior Design and Materials

The motor and transmission on this car have been reasonably reliable, there are problems with the motor mounts failing on this model, the car itself has never been weather tight meaning several leaks during rain storms etc. The car should get better gas mileage IE 25 to 27 mpg highway. The dash has been a flop. The plastic just crumbles into a heap of plastic. Don't waste your time on hiring Dr. Vinyl, just get a cloth cover and call it good.

Oxidized paint and 3 cracks in the dashboard. Black eclipse with oxidized paint. been painted now a few times by the dealership ( contracted out ). Paint is not oxidized, but still looks bad. dashboard still has 3 cracks, but the dealership states the heat from the southeastern US caused it. anyone else with these problems...contact Mitsubishi and complain.
