2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse Base V6 from North America

Summary:

I really enjoy this car for the price, but it's not for more than 2 people

Faults:

No major repairs.

CD player broke, but transferable 5 year warranty covered 100% of the repair costs.

Key replacement $300.

Winter tires $900.

General Comments:

Great appearance.

Reliable, Mitsubishi dealership are easy to work with.

Large exterior, need large turning radius.

Small interior, huge dash: small back seat, car only fits 2 comfortably.

Trunk difficult to close/open, trunk light comes on frequently even when it's closed.

Noisy cabin.

Key is expensive to replace, has to be computerized ($300).

Gas guzzler.

Attractive sporty interior, but plastic scratches easily.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
