Watch Out for the Heater Core! - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
By justin - September 5 - 3:23 amI LOVE this car. It has great style and great reliability - except for the infamous heater core that Mitsubishi refuses to recall. Make sure there is no syrup smell to the Diamante you are looking to purchase.

Great Car, but - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
By fmad - August 10 - 4:36 pmI had the chance to own this car for five months before it was wrecked. I was pleased. The LS series is extremely comfortable, three people easily fit in the back, and I receive nothing but compliments on the car. Standard, the car comes with eight premium speakers, which deliver great sound. The body looks stylish and the front has a downward curve that makes the car unique. In the winter on a cold start, the car would make an awful clicking noise that could be heard 1/2 a block away. I hear this also happens to the same year Galants. The noise does die out once it gets heated up. Even after new breaks and pads I couldnt help to hear an awful clutch when breaking normally. This didnt happen all the time.

Diamante is "Okay" - 2003 Mitsubishi Diamante
By Ray - June 22 - 12:40 amThe stiff ride improved significantly with the addition of Goodyear Assurance tires. Overall the Diamante is a pretty good value for the money. It is reliable but had little glitches initially and I spend several days at the dealer having noises fixed and things adjusted. I am currently having trouble finding patch paint and misc. parts. I would like more power but its adequate as is. A recent trip East gave me a low of 22 and high of 29 mpg - overall 26.54 mpg at 70+ mph all the way - Im pleased. I will probably keep this one for a while as my "work" transportation. Too bad they stopped importing the car.

Something Different - 2003 Mitsubishi Diamante
By Scott - May 2 - 9:40 amThere are too many Toyota Camrys, Honda Accords, and Nissan Altimas out there. I wanted something different. Is the 2003 Mitsubishi Diamante cutting edge? No, but it is a solid vehicle that has no weaknesses and it provides a lot of bang for the buck (if you buy used and avoid the depreciation hit.) I have had a lot of success with Mitsubishi products in the past. I am very happy so far with my Diamante ES. The car looks good to me and its engine, drivetrain and handling are very smooth and predictable. I have not experienced any mechanical problems so far after 15,000 miles. The car has an adaptive transmission feature where if you hop on the gas, it downshifts quickly and holds the shift point to a higher rpm. However, if youre gentle on the throttle, it shifts at a lower rpms. This is a great car if you can find one, they didnt make many.

They are on to something here... - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
By ColoTracy - March 27 - 10:00 amI have always loved the look of this car and I really fell in love with the 0% financing. This car is right on the edge of being something really special with a few minor refinements. Overall, the car is a solid contender in the introductory luxury car market. With a some engineering and design checnges in the future it could rule its class!!!

Diamante LS, Noise & Vibrations - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
By Jerry Brocato - October 12 - 4:23 amThis is a beatiful car but one that is marred with strange noises and vibrations. Ive had the car to the dealer several times to correct the problems only to be told it was "tire noise". I even went out of town and drove the same car. Same problems. I think there is design problems with the car. I have asked that the problems be corrected or give me another car.

Pretty Sweet - 2001 Mitsubishi Diamante
By workit - June 2 - 10:56 amThe drive and pick up is nice and smooth with sufficient power. The transmission misses a little and could be more responsive, especially when in traction control mode. Interior is nice despite awkward ash tray vs. cup holder placement. Excellent sound system.
