1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS review from North America
"A speedy sleeper"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front Control Arm bushings dried out and needed to be replaced.
General comments?
This truly is a great beginner's sports car with a dependable engine that catapults you down the highway effortlessly.
There is some doubt in its excessive body roll when traveling at high speeds around a corner.
