Over 115,00 and still running

I was third owner and bought with 68,000miles. It is 4 years later and over 115,000 miles and running great! Very impressed with its high performance and handling. Still zippy and fun to drive; handles very well in snow, as long as it's not too deep as the car sets low. Have had issues with aluminum rims and having to replace tires that won't seal the rims. Added a remote start so car heats quickly in cold. Had to replace shocks initially, but no problem in 4 years.

Why is it falling apart ?

My car was one of the first to be produced and I think they were still working out the bugs. Fit & finish is slightly below average. Generally the car was holding it's own (just a transmission issue early on).Since the car reached 30,000 mi. & just after the 36 mo. warranty was up, it's been really crumbling.Battery has been replaced, front struts are noisy, brakes are vibrating, hatch won't stay open anymore, alignment is off, rough shifting transmission, moonroof gremlins,paint oxidation,millions of rattles, what's next ?

Fun to Drive, NOT to Fix

I bought my 2000 Eclipse GT used with 43000 miles on it. I didn't have the car a month before I started having major problems. The car has always run hot, even with replacing the thermostats twice, I've replaced the transmission, the sunroof has never worked properly, dashboard cracked when it was cold outside, both power window motors have been replaced,and many smaller things as well. I would NOT recommend an Eclipse to anyone

I have had my car for almost two years. I have had to replace the catalytic converter, some gaskets and right now I have to replace the solenoid switch. I still love my car.

Needs oil change at proper interval. The Sun-Roof gets bad in Rainy cities. Worst Resale Value.
