1992 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS review from North America
"More reliable than my BMW"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1992 Eclipse GS.
New timing belt at 83000 and at 138000.
Has now 195000 and does not even smoke.
First generation 4G63 is the best thing Mitsubishi has ever built.
The car still turning heads.
General comments?
I could use more than 135HP, but when a car with 195000 miles still does 125 MPH, I can't really complain, and that is stock motor.
