"I've owned this '03 Eclipse GT for 7 yrs & love it as much today as the day I bought it. Its reliable, great gas mileage, fast, sporty & timeless beauty. I have 135k miles & expect it'll last a long time yet. But when it finally dies I will be buying another Eclipse!!"

"Being a girl thats in love with cars, after selling my ugly 1999 chevy cavalier I bought my 2003 Mitsubishi Eclpse GS just to have a cute realible car to drive in the mean time, I was never a fan of them. Now owning it for a month I am head over heels in love with my car! I plan on tinting the windows, getting custom rims, new stereo, new custom exhuast, I just want to make my car perfect! I love it so much!!"

"-trunk is relatively small, but big enough for two duffle bags and maybe a bookbag and some other small things for a road trip. -interior is nicely designed - great bucket seats with lumbar super for the driver -all black interior is very dark at night with only 2 small lights on the rear view mirror for the whole car. good luck dropping something at night like a phone or wallet -rear seat is small but ive had two smaller people sit back there on a 1:30 min drive and wasn't torture -great handling with the factory suspension and sway bar -4cl engine with about 145hp stock isn't winning any races. would be great with a turbo -as with any other convertible security is always a problem. but careful where you park and hide all he valuables and no one has a reason to get into the car. -reliable car and owning the car 3 years ive only had to replace alternator and radiator. - ground clearance is low which is great for a sports car but take care in estimating potholes or parking spaces."
