  • Just OK but the transmission stinks - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
    By -

    The styling is not bad. It has a descent amount of amenities for the price. The big seller for me was the 6 year 0% interest financing. That equals an unbeatable value. It has a roomy passenger compartment and plenty of leg room in the back seat. The memory seat function is flawed. It erases itself regularly. Alao, it has no home link for garage remote. The heated mirrors are poor. The worst feature must be the transmission. I have had in in the shop several times for the transmission. It has shift "flairs". It feels like it slips. I have had the clutches replaced, the valve body and ports replaced but the problem persists. Not 100% of the time but maybe 40-50%. It is very annoying and for this reason alone, I cannot wait to sell it.

  • Best Car Yet For Me!!! - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante

    Certainly a lot of car for the buck! You can pay a lot more and get a lot LESS in a luxury car ie Lexus, Acura!

    The 2002 Diamante has alot of head and leg room. It is the best car I have ever purchased. The comfort level is the best. The ride is smooth and quite. I feel the Diamante is a very reliable ride and the features it comes with are unbelievable.

  • Traded the Jag - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante

    Love this car. Just traded a 1999 JagXJ8 for a new Diamante. The ride in this car is quieter, I swear! For the price, this is the best mid-range luxury car Ive owned. Smooth ride. Ultra-quiet and fun to drive. Beautiful look too.

    Engine, Transmission very smooth. Rides very nice and quiet. Handles well. Comfortable car all around on long trips. Like the sterio and moonroof. Should have brighter dash lighting.

    The Mitsubishi Diamante Vr-X is a fun fast ride but since I purchased it I have had to put a lot of money into it... the heater core went around 75k, and its conveniently place on the firewall so the job itself is a nightmare, I havent met a Diamante driver past 80k who didnt have to do the same, now Im having trouble with the 02 sensors, I replaced 3 last year and this year the fourth went. Id say the car would be worth it if it didnt cost so much to maintain. About 1500$ for the heater core repair and about the same for the o2 sensor work.

  • Totally underestimated - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante
    By -

    I bought my first Dimante in 1993. I did not realize how wonderful of a car it was until I have gone through a 96 Jag XJ6 and 98 Cadillac Seville. Ultimately, it was the best car I have ever owned. Therefore, I am back at the helm of 2002. For the money, you cant beat the equipment. The style, handling and standard features match those of much more expensive cars. In the state of the economy, I am definately for getting the most for my money. I would recommend a test drive.

  • Run from Mitsubishi as fast as you can! - 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante

    Engine completely broke after servicing at dealer who denied any wrongdoing. Needed to replace engine at my cost and what a cost. This company makes junk! Just look at their reliability records to see for yourself. You have been forewarned! AJ
