I am the second owner of this eclipse and have had plenty of fun with it. It is currently sitting around because I am not around to drive it. When I bought it in 2007, it had a dent in the passenger side fender, door, and hood. There was a massive amount of rust under the rear deck lid. Once I had time, I tore the thing apart, and replaced the hood, fender, and hatch. I took the third brake light out of a gs wing and fabbed it into the gst wing. Then I gave it a new paint job with white and orange pearl mixed over a bright white base coat. Once I decided on colors, I had pin stripes painted on as well as the cars name, "evil" painted on the bumper. At that time, I also replaced the rear hub assemblies and all the brakes. Now both of the fenders are a bit dinged up, after a few years dealing with city parking, and the windshield has a nice crack. There is also a bit of rust under the hood and a small spot by the gas refill. The tranny needs some work, but I have been driving it for almost 4 years with no 4th gear. It has worked for me and if I were to keep it, it would be my next project.
I have recently replaced the headlights with aftermarket halo lights. The turbo was rebuilt in Summer of 2011. The water pump and timing belt were replaced this past November. This car also comes with 18" Antera 3 piece rims with summer tires. 2 tires probably only have 1 summer left on them, but the other 2 have some good life left. The stock rims are currently mounted with winter tires on them. When I got the car there was already a GReddy blow off valve, Apexi turbo timer, cold air intake, nology plug wires, and a 3" magnaflow exhaust. The 3 aftermarket guages down the A pilar are the boost guage, air/fuel ratio, and oil pres. guage. Wires from subs I used to have are still ran to the trunk, they just need to be reconnected. The head unit installed is Alpine.
With the new water pump, timing belt, and rebuilt turbo, this car is ready to keep going. Like any 15 year old car, it takes some attention and fixes every once in a while. Anyone who has owned one understands. It's a fun and quick car and it is definitely hard for me to let it go.
Winning bidder is responsible for pickup or lining up shipping. Full payment is required at the time of pickup in cash is preferred. I obtain the right to end this sale at any time I see fit. Thanks for looking.

I wanted to to post an update with a couple things I have thought of concerning the condition of the car. The driver side door has some damage(body work) that's not very noticeable and still opens fine. A clip on the passenger side door handle has broken off, so the handle is loose, but stays on the car and still works. The hatch "shocks" probably need replaced soon as they don't always hold up the hatch. The sunroof rattles when it is open and you go over bumps. All it needs is tightening, but I forgot to do so before I left. The upholstry for the inside cover for the sunroof is starting to come off. There are "racing" seatbelts installed, but still have stock belts. The passenger side racing belts' clip is broken. The driverside seat has a tear in it. I'm not sure you can see it in the pics. A couple of the summer wheels that come with the car have a few spots where they hit a curb, but the chrome rim can be replaced since they are a 3 piece rim. That is all I can think of. I want to be as honest as possible, so please, if you have any questions, let me know. Thanks

Mitsubishi slashes annual profit forecast on slowing car sales
Wed, Nov 6 2019TOKYO — Mitsubishi Motors on Wednesday cut its full-year profit outlook by 67% as it expects sluggish demand in North America and China will continue, while a strong yen and research and development costs will also hurt the automaker's bottom line. Japan's sixth-largest automaker now expects operating profit to come in at 30.0 billion yen in the year to March, down from a previous forecast for 90.0 billion yen. The new outlook would be Mitsubishi's lowest profit since the year ended March 2017. The downgrade comes after Mitsubishi, in which Nissan holds a controlling stake, reported a 78% plunge in operating profit during the July-September quarter to 6.3 billion yen, lower than a mean forecast for 16.26 billion yen from analysts polled by Refinitiv. It joins a growing number of Japanese automakers which are bracing for lower profitability. Earlier on Wednesday, Subaru lowered its annual profit forecast due to a stronger yen and a cut in domestic output due to a major typhoon last month. Mazda and Suzuki have also cut their respective outlooks within the past month due to slowing demand for their cars. Earnings/Financials Mitsubishi
2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross vs. small crossover SUVs: How they compare on paper
Fri, Feb 23 2018In the midst of the crossover SUV boom, each traditional size segment has become saturated. As a result, automakers are beginning to fill the gaps that separate classes, giving us some interesting in-between options. The all-new 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross jumps right into one of those in-between categories bookended by compact and subcompact crossovers. It's a niche that offers more space and feature content than the smallest vehicles, with an extra dose of style and a lower price than bigger ones. Because of the Eclipse Cross' in-between nature, though, there's not really an obvious direct competitor. As such, we've selected a diverse group of small crossovers that are similar to the Eclipse Cross in some but not all key areas: size, price, feature content, style and likely buyers. The 2018 Subaru Crosstrek, 2018 Toyota C-HR and 2018 Nissan Rogue Sport each have elements in common, but are different enough to provide useful points of comparison. A chart of specifications and key standard features is shown below, followed by more in-depth analysis. And if you wish to compare these crossovers with others not listed, be sure to check out our comparison tools. Engines and Drivetrains One of the Eclipse Cross' biggest advantages in this segment will be its engine. Subcompact crossovers, including the other three we've chosen, are sluggish to say the least. This new Mitsubishi should be different as it packs a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder that belts out a whopping 184 pound-feet of torque. We say whopping, because the C-HR, Crosstrek and Rogue Sport all have between 139 and 147 pound-feet. Horsepower is similarly unimpressive at just 152 horsepower - the same as the Crosstrek - but that torque should make passing and on-ramp runs much more satisfying. The appeal of crossovers for many people is the availability of all-wheel-drive, and this is where the Subaru gets an advantage. Like with all Subarus that aren't a BRZ, the Crosstrek has standard all-wheel drive. The Mitsubishi comes close, making all-wheel drive standard on every trim level except the very base ES trim level. On the Rogue Sport, all-wheel drive is an option on all trim levels. Depending on where you live, though, being able to have front drive on a high-trim crossover could be a plus because it will save some money and improve fuel economy. The C-HR loses this battle as it's only available with front-wheel drive.
Mitsubishi says it will make money from EVs
Fri, Mar 13 2015The Mitsubishi i-MiEV is the lowest-cost plug-in vehicle available in the US. The spartan EV's small price tag shouldn't lead you to believe the company doesn't see dollar signs where there's a plug. Mitsubishi says that electric vehicles are one of the three profitable segments that have helped the company get back into the black. The other two are light trucks and crossovers. We suspect that the resounding success of the Outlander PHEV played a bigger role in this than the i-MiEV, but you never know. Mitsubishi Motors Corp president Tetsuro Aikawa told Automotive News that the company will keeps its focus on those three segments and ease back on sedans and performance cars. To that end, the Outlander Plug-In Hybrid will come to the US next April, many years after it went on sale in Japan and Europe. The vehicle will fit well with Mitsubishi's plans to shift its strategy to SUVs and CUVs here. Related Video:
