2002 Mitsubishi Eclipse GTReview
Russ writes:
Eclipsed By A Mitsubishi — The Eclipse is essentially a 2 door Galant. A sedan size and performance coupled with a sporty look makes for a great daily driver. The vehicle has undoubtedly been super reliable as I go into the 7th year of ownership with only one defect problem with the A/C compressor locking up shortly after I took delivery of it. Very comfortable and gains a lot of attention. Pros: Looks great, spacious and comfortable Cons: Slow and pistons are like peanut butter when adding big power. |

It's A Car That Works! — The car is heavy so I wouldn't recommend the 4 cylinder models unless you’re getting the convertible of course! The suspension is awful without aftermarket upgrades. Otherwise, I can’t really complain about the motor because it has taken a significant amount of abuse and is still going 120,000 miles later. Not my car of choice however. Pros: It's a Car! Cons: It's my car!! |

This Is A Great Car For Mileage And A Smooth Ride! — I love this car! The interior has kept up VERY well! The exterior is in great shape as well and I've had it for four years! Handles great on the road hangs tight to the curves! It may be only a 4cyl. but it acts like it's a v6! I think everyone should have one! Pros: The best Japanese car around!!!! Cons: It's not an AMERICAN MUSCLE!!! |

I Love This Car. — I like everything about this car and have been driving it for fourteen years. I bought this car new in 2001. The body could use some refreshening. I also like the shifter that you can use as an automatic or manually shift it for more rpm...zoom! It is a petite girls car to drive. Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: Handles great and I also love the sunroof and stereo system. Cons: Back seat is too small for passengers. |

One Of The Best Looking Sports Coupes You Can Buy For An Inexpensive Pricetag. — 5 speed. 3.0L V6. 210 HP. 215 ft/lbs. Great Handling because of stiff suspension, but could be stiffer. At 100,000 miles, everything decided to break, but it was all cheap. Great looking car from almost any angle. This car is a blast to drive fast, especially on a curvy road. Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: Coupe. Very good looking. Decently Powerful in a straight line, but really quick around corners. Cons: Coupe. Gas mileage is just O.K. |
2002 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT Review
Oregonblonde says:
It was a twin turbo and it was so fun to drive. It did 135 mph with no effort (felt like 65mph). It was smooth and quiet and would have gone much much faster but the limiter wouldnt allow it to accelerate above 135mph. Handling was impressive and stopped quickly as well. The seats sat low and were fairly comfortable except on long trips, but not much leg room for passengers in the back. Overall it was a very sleek sexy car that I would love the opportunity to own again. vs2001 Buick Regal GS Sedan FWD

"Probably the body style and how smooth it performed without any noticeable stress on it. It 100% belongs on a race track. You get in it with a smile and get out with twinkling eyes wide open, heart pounding, and a smile the size of your face lol!! " |

Review By lguagliano
The car was exactly as advertised. It was clean inside and out. We checked the Kelly Blue Book value and it was higher than we paid which was good to see that we didnt over pay. Drives like a dream so... Read More
Great Car! By Maria
This is an awesome car that is very fun to drive. I feel very safe while driving it, but I have a hard time backing up. This little car can definitely hold it's own when it goes against stronger cars.... Read More

Decent Fun Commuter Car By Johnny_Blaze
Good commuter car, but a bit underpowered. Not what you want to haul kids or groceries. Looking to get another car to do those things and commute to work. Not a bad choice for someone looking for a... Read More
