I bought this car used in 2007 with about 65k. I've had to replace the timing belt (needs it every 75k). Had some issues with the CPU, idle control unit, and gasket seals. It is a blast to drive, and so much fun. I love the look, the sound system, everything. All 210 horse power under me is just incredible. With the manual transmission downshifting at 60 or even 70 mph is such a rush. The thing accelerates in 5th gear, what more could you ask for? I accelerate and I'm at 60 before I know it! New tires December 2007 in the midst of a week long snow storm, and the improvement in the snow has been amazing. I only skid in about 2-3 inches of snow- anything else is a breeze to get through

Just got an Eclipse GS coupe yesterday. So far it is a good car. It's cute, and fun to drive but also practical. Mitsubishi's "Zero zero zero" finance program is great.

I have never owned a sports car before, so it is hard to compare. I love the way it looks, though. It is not a family car so you can't criticize the small back seat. It handles very well and has lots of pick up for a 4 cyl. The gas mileage is also impressive.
Impressive

The elclipse looks great inside and out!! I find it to be loud and not enough space in the back seat. I fear the car will not hold up like a Honda or Toyota but I'm hoping I'm wrong. Over all I think it is a very nice sports car and I love the looks I receive when driving it. It's cool to see other's driving one. I do feel the car should have more colors. I purchased the silver one and everyone seems to have the same color.

This is the second Mitsubishi Eclipse that I have bought in the past five years. This car is very reliable and its looks are great. One thing I do suggest is put some money away for a new stereo because the factory one is terrible. Also the v-6 is great but it is not as fast as the old turbos that were in the older Eclipses. Even with those things being said I still love this car. The new design is great and you will get some looks while driving in it.
Love, love love the color !!!

I have just gotten my car so I don't know how great it really is yet, but it's a very pretty car & fast didn't know how fast until I took it out of the show room. Vey roomy for the driver & passager but the back seats are very small & no leg room, but I still love the car.
My fun car

I loved my car. IT has been excellent but one thing I don't like is the whole dash cracked on it other than that I would not give nothing for my car ever. I like my eclipse so much I kept it and bought myself another one, a 2007. I hope that I will enjoy it as much as my 2003 I still have.
The greatest thing since Snickers!

In my personal opinion this vehicle is very SWEET! it handles like a dream, it has enormous power for a 6-cylander, the body style looks aggressive enough to scare down a stock car. The interior is one of a kind with it's technical style. As far as mileage per gallon it's great for a 6. Overall this car is extraordinary!

It is not a bad deal for a $20,000 car, yet I have always struggled with the poor performance. Like another review from a magazine:"It looks a lot sportier than it drives". Everything else is not bad except for the noise. It gets really loud on the highway, I could barely hear my radio.
