Still my dream car after all these years

I have been tracking this car ever since Mitsubishi first started producing them. They have come such a long way. I put a lot of effort and research into this. I don't maintain this car nearly as well as I should and it still has yet to give me a problem and I'm now over 50,000 miles. The best part of the car is the exterior design. Absolutely beautiful - spoiler could be smaller, but the paint job is superb. It always looks like I've gotten a wax job on it, especially at night. The V4 leaves a lot to be desired, but it's still an amazing car to drive. It's so much fun - and completely and totally reliable.
great for the cost

Excellent drive and value for the money. The car handles well and is very quick when needed. Excellent chick magnet

I'm a women in my late 40s and this is the first car I ever got to pick out brand new and buy just because I liked it. I've had it now over two years and I love it. I still smile every time I see it in the driveway. It runs great and is very fun to drive. My only complaint is that shortly after I bought it, I bumped into a pole (too low to see at my son's baseball field) and it creased the bumper. I thought for a hit that light, it should have not shown any damage but it did. So I think the body is not very forgiving. Still wouldn't want anything else, it's a fun car.
Sporty & Powerful (V6)

My 2005 Mitsubishi Eclipse GTS is fun to drive, especially during warm weather with the sunroof open. It is as powerful as many of the V8s were several years ago. Its price wasn't too bad for a sports car. The cost of insurance is kind of high though.
We Love our Eclipse!

We have only had our Eclipse since Feb 2005....so far we love it! We are in our 40's and this car has a way of making you feel 20 years younger. With the sunroof open, and the whole day ahead of us.......we are young again. Our Eclipse is Pearl White, and we put a black bra on the front, I truely think it's the sharpest looking car in our city.
