Traded a Lexus RX330 - 2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse
By TONY - June 2 - 6:06 pmTraded 2004 Lexus RX330 that I absolutely hated. Fell in love with the first time I saw it. I can afford a much more expensive car but with gas prices going through the roof I chose to opt for a 4 cyl that runs on regular gas.

Awesome Car - 2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse
By FOSGATE - April 20 - 6:03 pmI just got the car its an 08 GT brand spanking new and where in 2010. I was skeptic at first but when I test drove the thing damn that thing hauls. Im glad I got that Eclipse GT. Def get the GT V6 not the 4 banger cause then youll be missing out on all the fun. The cars got speed its quick and peels out which to me is a good thing lol. You just gotta know how to drive it if you dont want it peeling out when you need it. The exhaust and engine sound good too and the rims are nice. Def. great car to buy

Big Engine, Sloppy Car - 2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse
By fiveskin - December 1 - 4:36 pmThis was engineered as more of a pretty car than a useful one. It weighs too much for a sport coupe(>3500 lb), the turning circle is ridiculously wide (40 ft) and thats pretty much SUV territory. It also has numerous blind spots such as wide pillars and tiny side windows. The side mirrors are also too small. You will definitely have problems parking this car in a tight space. There is a noticeable under steer. The interior also suffers from cheap looking materials even with the leather option. The plastics are all over the place such as the door handle and middle dash, it almost feels like youre sitting in a toy-car. The rear seat is expectedly only useful for storage. It needs a new design.

A very fine car! - 2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse
By Silvergirly - February 26 - 2:30 amI needed a vehicle that I could rely on and saves me gas. I fell in love with the Eclipse! Lets just say this car drives real smooth. For a 4 cylinder, it has a lot of get-up and go! I got the SE edition that includes the sunroof and the awesome Rock Ford Fosgate sound system (includes a subwoofer in the trunk). It also has the nifty front and rear spoilers that makes the appearance very sharp. So far I can tell a big improvement between this car and my truck I owned. I am very glad to have purchased this vehicle. :)

Mitsi B - 2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse
By silverdust cd - January 28 - 4:50 pmLove the car. Have had lots of sporty vehicles in the past 20+ years and really enjoy my SE. So far I have 20k miles on my 2008 and have not had any problems. Insurance is very reasonable, gas mileage is great (30 mpg), and I dont see many on the road so I get lots of looks!
