1993 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS review from North America
"A small sleek sports car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The ECU had to be fixed and new capacitors were put in, it's a general Mitsubishi recall and I took it to a dealer and had no problems with it whatsoever.
General comments?
This is a fun sporty little car, the only thing I regret about it, is not getting a nicer and faster model. The SOHC vs. the DOHC is a joke because there is a huge difference between the two in performance and options.
