So my wifes dream car is a Mitsu eclipse convert, and we happen to find one that looks great. A 98 GS with 94xxx miles on it. My question is, are they good reliable cars? What are big things I should look for?
Looking for any help here cause last time I bought a used car it was a total lemon and I can't afford that hassel and headache again Thanks This post has been edited by Jeremy1210: Apr 17, 2006 - 8:05 AM |

we have two in the family, sister's and brother's. My brother lives at home, i work on it constantly. I've changed head gaskets on both 2 times each. We should've never bought them is about as basic as it gets. (both GS's, one manual, one auto)
