1992 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS review from North America
"Low priced, sporty, fast and a bargain for those with a tight wallet"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the radiator a month after I bought the car.
General comments?
I got the car from my uncle who kept the car in really nice shape. He made it a habit to change the oil every 3K miles. The only money put into it besides the radiator was for oil. This car is fast too. The exhaust is loud and deep around 3,000 RPM and chicks love it. The car corners like no other I've owned and is excellent on gas milage. I wish my car didn't have so many miles on it but the cars looks and speed make it worth it.
I would recommend this car to anyone who wants a sporty car for not a whole lot of money. I am in the process of fixing it up with after-market goodies to add some more value to it and keep me glued to the seat when I race on the street.
I would take this car over a V6 mustang any day.
