2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT review from North America
"Keep working on it Mitsubishi"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
2 Passenger side water leaks (floods) due to clogged sun roof drainage lines.
A/C Unreliable. Stops working if it rains. Compressor just blew out. When it did work, it was'nt very cold.
General comments?
Good looking car and is semi fast. Not sure I believe in the engineering.
There are lots of strange engine noises and road noise.
The car has a turning radius of a Boeing 747.
The car has 40k miles on it, but responds and acts as if there were 80k.
