  Powerful - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By Very Hot Car - July 21 - 1:40 am

  The 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT is at the top of its class. it is great looking inside and out and has awesome power. I would put this car up against most other cars on the road today. it is extremely quick off the line and has smooth on the highway. It handles great. Did I mention the power? This is the perfect sports car. I had a BMW 328 Coupe before this car and by far the 2006 Eclipse is better and faster. I highly recommend it.

  Zippity do dah - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By Purchasinggirl - July 5 - 1:03 am

  I love this car! I have had people stop and take pictures of it with their cell phones. I am always being stopped and asked if thats the new Eclipse. The interior lights are great. The down side is that it is hard to backup because of the rear visibility. There is basically no back seat and it is difficult for tall people to fit in the front. I would have liked to have automatic door locks which is not an option. I feel safer knowing my doors have locked for me when I put the car in park. Lets not forget the stereo rocks!

  Awesome Eclipse - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By sexie 06 - June 29 - 12:33 am

  This is my 3rd Mitsubishi Eclipse in 10 years, and it is by far the best one I have ever owned. The design is on the money. It is HOT! It is sporty, sleek, and just glides on the road. It also is easy to handle (and easy to get a ticket in if you arent careful). I just tinted the windows and had a set of hook up rims on it. The Eclipse has always been my favorite car. It is comfortable to ride in. I would recommend to any single lady or guy (it is a great pick-up car).

  Like my Eclipse - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse

  I had been interested in an Eclipse for several years. Now that Mitsubishi has built a serious sports coupe, I decided to purchase. And, I am glad that I did!

  Love this car! - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By averyjenn - June 7 - 12:10 am

  The body style says it all. This car is fun to drive! I got the sport and accessory package and couldnt be happier. One drive of this car and it was like it was meant for me - the seat just cradles you. Great on long drives.

  Amazing Car. - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By Ømar Chafee - June 4 - 8:42 pm

  I had a dark red 06 Eclipse GT with that "rare" black strip going down the front bumper. It was a beautiful car I bought a nice spoiler for it too. It really drove great, I had it from 75 K miles to 115 K miles until it was hit by a drunk driver, totaling it. It gave me small minor problems throughout the time Ive had it but thats almost whats to expect from any used car near or over 100 K. My car door sometimes wouldnt close, I had to get it a new battery because the battery I had was very weak.. ect. The sound quality is absolutely magnificent. That speaker in the trunk really gives the overall sound an extra punch. Acceleration is great. I liked nearly everything about this car.

  eclipse gt - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By alex195 - June 2 - 2:16 am

  Ive had my eclipse for 3 months now and its been a bast to drive! Bought it used with 130 000km on it. Painted the front center black, fake diffuser black to make it look real, and the roof too, and put ralliart badges on. Had no problems with the engine, however... the cheap sh*t door handles did break and even the new ones make that bending plastic quealing noise, the cheap plastic key also broke, and so did the cheap plastic a/c control. But thats why it costs so little, you do get a great 3.8L v6 that could use a little more power if your used to driving high hp vehicles, but if your not its more then enough. It always pulls in any gear with no hesitation but road noise is horrendous!!

  Beautiful Car - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By LoCo68 - January 30 - 5:16 pm

  Couldnt wait for this to come out and I bought one of the first 2006 models on the market in June of 05. Owned an Eagle Talon in 92. Decided on the 4cyl due to the gas mileage. The car takes curves nicely and there is no lack of power. Wish I had upgraded to the 6c and the better sound system.

  Great Car - 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  By Bob MacMillan - December 27 - 5:43 pm

  I wanted a front wheel drive car -- I live in New England and this is my only car. Had a Saab which I enjoyed but this car is much much tighter and more fun to drive. Excellent power, engine sounds terrific, I feel like if I need to "go" into traffic, I can GO! After I read the review in early July in USA Today I was sold.
