  • Could be a great car! - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
    By -

    The Diamante is a good car and could be a great car. A lot of noises from the rear suspension, old fashioned door design (no door frame) makes wind noise, low seating position, and most of all TERRIBLE RESALE VALUE!! This was a $28,000 plus car, barely worth half of the MSRP. Compare resale value to that of a Toyota Avalon or Nissan Maxima. Dont buy this car unless you want to keep it until the whels fall off. Mitubishi needs to either fix this car and eliminate on its poor image or PULL THE PLUG ! ! Barrcuda

  • Watch Out for the Heater Core! - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
    By -

    I 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 -

    I 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.

You will lose around 15k The First Year....

  • Not A Problem At All - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
    By -

    I had Purchased This Auto Against My Better Judgement, After Reading Reviews At Many Websites All Against The Transmission Function And Ergonomic Flaws. Well It Has Been 5 Months And It Is One Of The Best Decisions I Have Ever Made On A Car That Has Awesome Styling And Great Pickup On The Highway 6000mi On The Odometer And Counting Bottom Line Go With Your Impulses!

  • They are on to something here... - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
    By -

    I 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!!!

  • Good car for the money - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
    By -

    I just bought this car, and i love it! Its a wonderful car. I love the lighted dash and i especially like that I dont see one on every corner. Trust me, this car gets the "look".

  • Great Deal - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
    By -

    I have a 1997 model. Thinking about another one. Its flawless other than these fixes during warranty: 1. replaced a control chip on the transmission to correct the vibration at speed of 30-40 mile/hour 2. a cracked window seal 3. broken light bulbs

  • Fun ... and a looker too! - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
    By -

    Ive been asked about this car at a gas station by strangers. The VR-X appearance package is outstanding! It handles like its on rails. I give it the highest score for its uniqueness - cache, if you will. How many VR-Xs do you see on the street? About 1 for every 1000 Maximas, Altimas, and other similar vehicles. I love it! Mustang owners look twice... (what is it?! and can I take it?!)
