  Not the Greatest, Not the Worst - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By okeedokee - July 4 - 6:00 pm

  This is not the best nor the worst car I have ever owned. I have had many issues with rattles one in the rear suspension. Also, the check engine light came on with a misfire. The dealer is still trying to find one more rattle (possibly in the tail light). I love driving it and its nice to look at, but I hate having to take it in every few 1,000 miles. The dealership has been helpful in resolving the issues.

  Wicked Awesome Eclipse - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By garyf2132 - May 2 - 11:22 pm

  I purchased a 2006 Eclipse GS Automatic with only 60,000 miles on it just last week. It came equipped with the Rockford Fosgate premium stereo system with subwoofer. Im in love with this car literally. Its a real head turner. Acceleration is fantastic especially when pulling onto the highway or changing lanes, plenty of power to zoom around. The blue colored dash lights are a wicked cool feature. The bucket seats give it that extra sporty feel. The stereo system doesnt come with an AUX input jack unfortunately but I purchased an OEM Mitsubishi cable online so I will install it myself into the rear of the stereo system. Overall I love this car & wouldnt trade it for anything.

  Head Turner - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By D Storm - April 15 - 1:26 pm

  The first thing I can say is while sitting at a red light in my new Eclipse a guy in a new Corvette pulled up beside me, is all smiles and says hey nice car! The new styling is great. The power that the GS 5M delivers is incredible for a 4-cylinder. So they have it governed at a top speed of around 122 mph! It handles incredibly; the purr of the exhaust can be heard throughout your drive. If you love to drive and love to have a little bit of attention I recommend buying it.

  I Love This Car - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By Lauren - March 16 - 9:56 am

  The 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse is so much fun. When I first bought it I drove everywhere just for the sake of driving. I would find things to do just to get back into this car. It makes driving a wonderful experience that you wont want to end. Highway driving is the best, with terrific handling and controlled speed this car can do almost anything. It definitely is a winner.

  By JPudas71 - March 14 - 6:10 pm

  The 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse is a good driving car for someone like me that has a 80+ miles a day to work. It gets really good gas milage, which is good now that gas is so expensive. The looks I get are great and the car is so cute and stylish. My kids think its a race car.

  The new Eclipse - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By pcmacbob - March 11 - 5:10 pm

  I just purcased a new Eclipse and have fell in love with it with one exception. The radio is suppose to play mp3 CDs (which it does) but after creating a few of them and inserting them into the 6 CD changer and trying to eject them all of a sudden one wont eject and know the cd unit wont even play anything. I looked in the manual to see if there is a way to manually eject the cd, but it says that you need to take it to the dealer. This might and probably will be a problem for buyers of the Rockford system. I did not see anywhere in the manual what CD manufacturer you should use for the stereo. My first tank I got 25 mpg. I have the 4 speed auto and love it also.

  Sweet Ride! - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By eclipse6racer - November 19 - 2:56 am

  First off, the obvious about this car...it looks sweet, it handles great, its fast ,and has a cool interior design especially with the glowing blue leds. What this car is not is a four seater, nor a three seater as the back has absolutely no room. Im 62" and most of my friends are tall as well. But hey, why buy a sports car if you have a family? Go get yourself a minivan in that case! Anyways, its a very sweet ride and it is fast. I love it,and if you love the sound of a race car, and I dont mean just change the damn muffler, throw a magnaflow exhaust on minus the resonator and second cat and it sounds better than any of those Fast and Furious rides from the movie yummy!
