Default Mitsubishi Eclipse convertible

http://www.caranddriver.com/article.asp?se...rticle_id=10767

Here's C&D's review for the V6 convertible... Looks really nice, but $30k for a slow FWD v6 (1/4 mi in 14.8s) ? With about that much, you can get a much faster Mustang GT convertible for a little more (or the cheaper v6 model).

Looks nice, but too pricey

Suffers from HUGE, BULBOUS butt syndrome.

HAHAHAHAHA Thats great!

Mitsu has really put themselves in the tank. If they would get smart and put a 4G63 w/ AWD back in to the Eclipse they would sell a whole lot more!

Not my cup of tea, but I can see how some people would like it.

I just read that article and it sounds like they liked it. Might actually be a decent driver for just cruising around. Test-drive time
