1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, drivers really enjoy the 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse for its fun driving experience and performance. Many appreciate its quick acceleration, powerful turbo engine, and responsive handling. However, some owners have noted issues with reliability and frequent need for repairs, particularly in older models. Despite this, the car remains a favorite, especially among those who value customization and aftermarket modifications."
This is an extremely quick, responsive, and fun car to drive. Very reliable if taken care of. Check service records and have the car looked at before buying.
March 14, 2008I love this car! Its been my dream to own a GSX forever, and everything about them is perfect. Mine is only a GS which comes with a non-turbo 420a Chrysler motor. But I've seen many people turbo them. Performance-wise mine has Crower stage 3 254 cams, Aem cold-air Intake, OBX Front Strut Bar(which makes for great handling especially around corners. eibach lowering springs, & Adjustable bushings/Camber kit on all four corners. Transmission just had some work done. I replaced the throwout bearing, all motor mounts, plugs & wires(on a regular basis), and replaced all the wheel hubs, control arms, bushings, ball joints. I'm also savin to make it a turbo 420a beast! Cosmetically.. it has z3 fenders, oem turbo wing, drifter sideskirts, clear sidemarkers, & Halo headlights w/ 10k HIDs. Everything about it...color, shape, sound, is flawless. The interior also flawless. This car is excellent all around, there's a lot of available aftermarket parts for DSMs, easily customizable and extremely sexy and fun to drive. I'm in love.
December 7, 2010It's a great looking car. It has plenty of power to get you around. The turbo and the exhaust sound great. I would recommend this car to all of my friends. But it does make an annoying clicking sound at idle that i hate, but thats my only complaint about it.

September 19, 2008i owned this car from when i was in high school and i just barely gave it to my little sister. i loved this car so much great ride fun and great on gas
June 4, 2008Reason I gave it five stars on power is because a 4g63 has alot of potential. It gets pretty good gas mileage and if something goes wrong or breaks its usually pretty cheap and easy to fix. especially if you have owned one for awhile they usually turn an ordinary person into a mechanic lol. This is why i gave it 3 stars for reliability, these cars are notorious for having problems. So always take good care of your DSM ;)
June 12, 2012Quick car handles very well little mods to make very quick. Car does require a lot of attention and maintenance but if you keep up on the car it will be a dream car for sure. The cost of the car is cheap and well maintained the gas mileage can stay in the 30mpg range even heavily modded if you run the right set up and have a street/track tune separate. Car is amazingly fun to drive and has a lot of people second guessing what the car is capable after i race them or they come along for a little joy ride. Dont knock it till you race it or ride in it
August 30, 2009Well, the saying - "DSMs - turning ordinary people into mechanics since 1989" - holds true. I probably never worked on a car aside from changing a tire until I got this thing, and it is all starting to pay off. I fell in love with this car the moment I saw it, and I had to have it. A quick trip to the bank and some haggling, and I drove it home. In my opinion, 95-99 Eclipses have one of the most appealing looks ever put out, 97-99 bumpers preferably. Overall I would certainly recommend a turbo Eclipse or Talon to anyone, but do yourself a favor and take care of the maintenance first, because you'll only wear things out faster as you add power and drive harder.
March 2, 2008The performance was moderate for being a non-turbo eclipse. the interior started falling apart quickly. The seat back on the drivers seat actually broke. So i had to have the seat welded back together. The timing belt frayed and broke one of the cam gears off of the cam. And the water pump had to be replaced 3 or 4 times
April 2, 2010performance----accelerates, brakes, and handles immaculately with the AWD build quality----rebuilt turbo at 122k and cylinder head at 148k, squeaky belts from time to time appearance----a real head turner. nothing but compliments! cost----about 25mpg, High maintenance costs though. Fun----this car was a blast, especially with a few mods... definitely a lot of fun.
October 22, 2009I absolutely loved this car when i had it. It handled corners and gripped the road so well, it was like being at the track. At 2000 rpm the turbo kicked in and it was gone, gotta love it. It got very good gas mileage, it was a 4-cyl so it didnt have a huge tank to fill, and when full, it lasted awhile. The interior of mine was leather and being that it was a black car; well that made it a hot car, literally, in the summer. That and being that i am somewhat tall, there wasnt a ton of leg room for me but, hey, it didn't care...i loved it(-:
