A fun car with minor problems

I haven't had my 2002 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT very long, but I already love it. The car itself looks great, I've had random people on the street comment on it and often see people watching my car drive away. The inside looks good too, with the leather and design, but the controls could look a little better. Appearance isn't everything but they know that. This car had a lot of power and is a lot of fun to drive. Most other cars are left in the dust, although this does hurt the fuel economy a bit. It's painfully apparent that Mitsubishi does make these cars cheaply, though. The previous owner had to replace the clutch and I've read about major problems this car has. I still recommend it.
Awesome Car

We have had this car almost 2 years now with no problems. Bought it brand new late 2001. All weve had to do is change the oil and put gas in it. Just hit 20,000 mi. This is a very good-looking reliable car. You should get a manual GT with the Premium package. The leather adds a hint of sophistication to the interior and the V6/manual transmission gives you more than enough power to play. Highly recommended.

Fun to drive, great on gas (especially the 5 speed), Everyone and I mean Everyone looks. It's a really fun sports car. You will definitely get bang for your buck! Just remember, keep up with maintenance!! Really really important. The engine can take a real beating in these cars, but you have got to do the timing belt and oil changes and you should be fine.
the silver bullet

The bang for the buck with this car is unbeatable. You get a 3.0 lt V6 and a unique eye catching design for 20Gs. When i drive my car to home after workI forget about my daily stress and have some fun.

I love this car! It is, by far, the best car I have ever owned. The GT V6 has plenty of pickup, while maintaining a very comfortable ride. After driving this car for about a month, I drove from L.A. to Phoenix. At one point during the drive I looked down to notice that I had just passed 90 mph, and I didn't even know it - that's how smooth the Eclipse rides. I love this car!
