1993 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS 2.0

Summary:

Looks always say it all

Faults:

So far nothing has gone wrong. The transmission was rebuilt and a new clutch was put in. But I bought it after all the problems went wrong. The car runs great.

General Comments:

I only paid a couple thousand for this car, and it's great. The body is in mint condition, and the interior is excellent.

The back seats are small, but have been modified for comfort.

The in-car entertainment consists of 2 800 watt Sony aluminum cone subs, and all Sony door speakers. The car has a Playstation 2 with a DVD screen, and a separate DVD/CD head unit. The car has many neons, and yet it all came with the car.

I love it. Nothing has gone wrong, and it was the best investment ever. If the tranny was replaced on the car you're going to buy, buy it, because it will go; my uncle's 99 Eclipse already went after 3 years.

1993 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS No

Summary:

A great car for anyone

Faults:

I really love this car.

I have had nothing go wrong with it other than putting in a new alternator.

Which at 175,000 miles is not too bad.

General Comments:

This car is great on gas mileage.

I can travel 250 miles or more on a half a tank of gas.

The car is very comfortable to sit in for short or long periods of time.

1993 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS 1.8 SOHC

Summary:

Grooovey

Faults:

Small amount of pealing of the clear coat.

General Comments:

I have found this car to be the most enjoyable car I have owned. I have heard a lot of people complain about the paint. Get real people its 10 years old.

If you know how to maintain and service your car you should not have many problems. Yes belts will break and clutches will need to be replaced. These are wear items.

My eclipse handles like it is on rails. Taking turns at twice the speed limit is a possibility.

My car is 9 years old and still turns heads. You are not going to beat a Mustang GT off the line, but this is a fun and economical car.

1993 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX 2.0 turbo gasoline

Summary:

A very fast car with great handling!

Faults:

My best friend had this car before me. And well here is everything I know.

1. Had the timing belt replaced around 75k.

2. Rebuilt the engine @ 140k (not required, but was done to ensure life).

General Comments:

I love this car. It is AWD and turbo. However, I can't say this car is stock though. When it was stock it was great, but since I have gotten it I have added Injen Intake with a Cat Back exhaust, a new intercooler and a boost controller.

This car pushes 280hp at the wheels and has 148k, and burns NO OIL WHATSOEVER!

In a quarter mile drag I can run my car in 13 seconds @ 118mph.

THE BEST THING is the handling of this car. All the suspension is stock and it is amazing. No body roll whatsoever, even cornering @ 100mph+.

I owned a 96' Impreza LS Coupe with a turbo before this and this car handles a lot better and is faster!

I gotta agree, this car has hardly any body roll, add performance struts and lowering spring and (HOT DAMN!) this car has virtually no (as in NONE) body roll, unless going 110 MPH or above. Gotta' love this car!!! Yet it still shows superb handling and control, all the while, begging for more~!!!

WOW!!! I have only had my 93 GSX for a short time and I already love it. It is so sure of itself. It can accelerate out of corners so hard I expect it to fly off of the road, but it stays glued to the pavement. I'm looking forward to modifying this beautiful piece of engineering.

Cornering at 100, okay there. That's more of a curve in the road then a corner.
