Faults:

The power steering stopped working at 5000 miles. Was fixed under warranty and only needed to be flushed. They said that there was air in the hoses. How it got in there I have no idea.

General Comments:

Lets start out by saying this is a Mitsubishi under a Chrysler skin. The coupes always have been. The engine transmission and frame are Mitsubishi, all Chrysler did was stretch the frame and add new sheet metal.

This car has had no major issues like the old model has had. They were redesigned in 2001 and they are a thousand times better. The only problem I had was the power steering in all of the 20,000 miles.

This car is suprisingly fast. It can really throw your head back.

The seats are a little hard for long trips, but great at adjusting to make you feel like you belong in the car.

The rear seat is tight for three, but holds 2 OK.

The trunk is huge and the seats fold down to make it even bigger. It has come in handy many times. This car is a lot larger than it looks.

I get about 25 MPG average. That's pretty good for a high tuned V6. I do a lot of around town driving too, not just highways.

This car has been very reliable and is very fun to drive. It looks awesome on the road.

The Infinity sound system with 7 speakers sounds better than most aftermarket systems.

I recommend this car and will buy another.

Faults:

Leather seats have started to wear despite how much leather cleaner and conditioner I apply.

Engine skips while cold, and sometimes even when car is started again after it has just been driven.

General Comments:

Car accelerates like a champ.

Has more than enough power for any situation day to day driving will present you with.

Stock "Infinity" speakers with original 5-disk in-dash changer sounds great, even with two twelve inch speakers added.

Stock 17-inch rims do not absorb the impact from minor bumps in the road.

Faults:

Annoying rattle in rear, somewhere near the rear seat area on interior panels.

When cold, engine will miss or bog down at 3000 RPM.

General Comments:

After finance charges and dealer add ons, purchase cost was $32,000 -- much too high!

Regular maintenance will cost you between $150 and $300 every 7000 miles.

Minor annoyance: air conditioning frequently reverts to outside air when I prefer recirculating interior air to avoid sucking in the exhaust of the car in front of me.

Stereo lacks line-in type inputs for connecting after market audio sources.

I would have got the Acura RSX if I could go back and do it again.

Faults:

Check engine light came on twice-replaced fuel pump.

Rotors Warped at 12,000.

CD player stopped working.

Part of the dash had to be replaced-because of squeaks.

Every bushing was replaced in the front end until they found a Cracked Engine Cradle.

Spent 20 days at a dealer over one year.

It is a great car, just got stuck with a lemon!
