  By DiGirl - September 29 - 10:00 am

  These suckers are hard to find, but theyre a great entry luxury vehicle. Not the name cache as Lexus or Acura, but good handling and price/value ratio

  from leasing to owning - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
  By 187 - July 29 - 2:00 am

  I liked the finanacing, plus there were no options. all was included. that was the hook. then as I drove and owned the car it performed, drove quite well. from 1 to 10 I rate it an 8 or 9 only because there isnt an auto that deserves a 10 im quit satisfied with the Mitsubishi ls 4 dr all leather seats moon roof, 6 cyl a real nice car. I expect to have it a long time, if i were to replace it I would by it again

  Id rather drive this than a Camry... - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
  By RStudley - June 24 - 10:00 am

  Bought an 02 Diamante ES new for a couple reasons... I owned a 97 Diamante - a good comfortable ride. I also like that I dont see myself coming and going - its sort of a poor mans exclusive ride. I like the power, but fun-to-drive quotient is not high - it wanders like a puppy, and has a bit too much body lean. Even so, it is competent and well behaved (at least in normal driving). The real reason I bought it was price, and unbeatable financing. It also came with a 100K mile warranty, and auto alarm... Summary - not bad if your thing is to get "there" in relative comfort and style.

  Messed Up Good. - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
  By Rob Peter - January 3 - 10:00 am

  Somebody at Mitsubishi messed up. They made a really great car with lots of bang for the buck. My wifes boss is upset. He bought a Lexus. We test drove it at 5 dealers and pick ours up tonight. Love the VR-X package. Everyone looks twice and says what is that? Then they get in and say wow. Its the secret luxury car, for less than an arm and leg, and it does not look like every car on the Road. We had a tough time finding out baby, but that just means everyone else can drool in jelosy.

  Excellent Value - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
  By jrbruner - December 23 - 9:26 pm

  I love this car. I read all the reviews before I bought this car, and the power train was highly rated. This car is quiet, comfortable, powerful and reliable. I have the LS with the heated, 8-way power seats w/power lumbar and love it. This car was virtually unchanged from 98 until last year, 2004. The engine is smooth, and responsive and I get much better mileage than edmunds says. I measured 30 mpg highway in SoCal. Transmission failed at 75k (apparently common). Had it fixed by the pros at SoCal Transmission in San Diego and not a lick of trouble since. Heater core is recurrent problem w/these cars. These sell for much less than comp. Acura CL or 3.2 TL.

  Mourning my loss - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
  By Steven Cain - October 12 - 2:00 am

  I purchased a 2002 LS on Ebay on 11-17- 03 and got a heck of a deal, still under warranty. Totaled the car in 02- 04. Did not own the car long enough to give a good evaluation of it. Tremendous praise for the car in the crash. I put the nose of the car into a 97 Ford Mustangs door who failed to yield right of way ( ran a stop sign ) at 60 MPH and punted the Mustang some 150 Ft like a football. From the "A" pillars back there was "NO" damage. The only damage inside the cabin was the airbags deployed. The car held together well for such a violent impact!

  Awesome Car - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
  By Warrens Diamante - February 21 - 2:00 am

  I cant imagine a better car for the price and financing. Ive been a Honda driver for 15 years, and will not go back. Mitsu needs to up their advertising to get the market share it deserves. Best selling car in Japan, and we know they know the best deal. Great car.
