2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT review from Japan
"Performance and awesome looks at a reaonable price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Small tapping sound from the headliner, from a loose clip from wires for the power sunroof. Easily taken care of right away at the dealer.
General comments?
A real blast to drive. A real head turner. Awesome exhaust note when getting on it. Fairly impressive off the line. Handling at high speed(100) plus is very impressive. I've done 125+ and it was as stable as going 65. You really have to watch the speedo, you do not realize how fast you are going as it is that stable at high speeds. A 7 speaker Infinity stereo only adds to the appeal of this car.
