Used Mitsubishi Eclipse for Sale near Portland, OR
After a year of significant revision, the Mitsubishi Eclipse returns with minimal change for 2001. Highlights this year include a standard rear spoiler and child seat anchors.
The trims levels are unchanged in 2001. Buyers may choose between the base RS, the mid-level GS or the powerful GT. Alloy wheels, air conditioning, a CD audio system, power window and power door locks are standard across the board.
The new Eclipse lineup does not offer a turbocharged or all-wheel drive variant. The RS and GS are both powered by a 2.4 liter inline four, producing 154 horsepower and 163 pound-feet of torque. The GT upgrades to a 3.0 liter V-6, which delivers 205 horsepower and 205 pound-feet of torque. All models are available with either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic, but the GS and GT get a manual shifter. Fuel economy is estimated at 23/31 mpg with the four cylinder and 20/28 mpg with the V-6.
The Eclipse has been praised by consumers for its durable engine and transmission, stylish interior and exterior, strong fuel economy, reliability, and the Infinity audio system. Several reviewers tout the Eclipse ride quality and handling as class-leading, but uneven roads can cause some noticeable intrusion.
Owner complaints include a lack of interior room, both headroom and in the backseat, and a lack of power in the four-cylinder models.
4.3 Overall rating
(59 reviews)Its a blast to drive...I wish the build was better (more feeling to the ground) but Ive modified mine ...(cold air intake exhaust headers etc..) but other than that its a great car. Great starter car for those who want a kick but don't want to break the bank. Overall I'd recommend this car to anyone who wants to have fun driving and turn heads in the process.
car has been very dependable. Is a blast to drive. Low end torque is not that great but once it hits around 60 it starts to hit its stride. It looks wonderful and gets great gas mileage. Parts are cheap and total cost of ownership is very acceptable. Would recommend this car to anyone.
2001 Eclipse GT Black, Black Leather Interior, Automatic w/sport shift, Injen Cold Air Intake, Altezza Clear Tail Lights w/Black Housing, Diamond Cut Clear Euro Front Turn Signals w/Stealth Bulbs, Clear Rear Corners w/LED Reds, Clear Middle Break Light, Motegi DP 12 17" Chrome Wheels, Power Slot Rotors, Injen Catback Exhaust, 1300 watt audio system
The Car was quick after some modifications, but it broke down all the time. The transmission went out after about 60,000 miles. The serpentine belt and pulleys kept flying off.
accelerates great 210 horsepower 4wheel disk brakes are great, oem strut brace in the front handles awesome, only repairs needed were tires and a radio, one of the sexiest cars on the road still interior is good needs more room though, gas mileage is good for a v6 about 28 29 takes premium gas or wont run right, fun as hell to drive love it to death
