uncomfortable interior

By Joeycee (OH) on Thursday, February 09, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 26,776

Pros: "Exterior design, reliabile,fun to drive"

Cons: "Poor interior design,uncomfortable,bad gas mileage"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 2

"My SE eclipse always gets the stares and comments on its design. It's reliable, rides like a dream, and really hugs the road well in sharp turns. Even though it's only a 4 cylinder, it scoots out into traffic and picks up speed with no problem. The interior design, however, leaves a lot to be desired: shallow storage in doors, no place to through change or other items, the side mirrors are too close in distance to the driver and it took months to get used to, no room whatsoever for even the smallest of passengers in the back seat. I can seat comfortably in the front seat, but I am only 5' tall and even I have to duck to get INTO the car. Others (5'6" and over) when sitting in the passenger side, have to recline their seat in order for their head not to hit the headliner. All in all, if I had it to do over again, I would have never purchased the car solely on it's looks and reliability."

This car is all about reliability

By Adam (PA) on Thursday, February 09, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 40,000

Pros: "Hanldes good for a heavy car, shifts smooth."

Cons: "Back seats are worthless, unless you are 4 foot."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 8

"I have had my 2007 GS for about 9 months and had not a single problem with it besides routine maintenance (tires/brakes ect..) If you are looking for speed get the GT not the GS, the GS has spunk but its nowhere near as fast as an WRX or EVO. IMPORT>DOMESTIC, remember that. These Japanese car company's know what they are doing, they are all about technology, and technology rules the earth."

Love it!

By J.Michael (FL) on Tuesday, February 07, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 66,000

Pros: "styling and handling"

Cons: "no standard aux jack or wheel mounted controls."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"I love this car. I drive a ton for work and have not had a single problem with this car yet. It's a great combo of performance and fuel economy. I love the way it handles and its styling is second to none. Being a 2008 I think it should come standard with an USB or AUX jack, but in the grand scheme of things, that's not a big deal."
