Reader’s Question:

I think I’m ready to drive a new roadster in Houston, Texas again. Besides, my MX-5 could sure use some company in the garage. Would a 2009 Eclipse be a good big “baby bro” to my Mazda MX-5?

Hello, Vic. I’d like to add that it’s a good thing you are keeping that MX-5 around. It is still one of the better vehicles that Mazda ever produced. Now, on to better things, let’s talk Mitsubishi. Mitsubishi has a long tradition of performance and design excellence. I think choosing the 2009 Eclipse would indeed be a great choice for your car’s “big bro” position.

The Eclipse has 2 trims, the GS and GT, both with MPI (multi-point injection) engines. Main difference between the two is their power plants. The GS trim keeps under its hood, a 16-valve Single Overhead Cam (SOHC) 2.4 Liter MIVECS engine while the GT has a 24-valve SOHC 3.8 Liter MIVECS engine. In terms of power, the GS cranks up about 162 hp at 6,000 revolutions per minute while the GT does 262 horsepower under 6,000 RPM. Redlines for both are at 6,500. That takes care of the muscle part, let’s talk looks. Personally, since you’re talking “roadster,” the logical choice for you should be the 2009 Eclipse Spyder GT. I loooove the 18 inch wheels on the on an Eclipse. There are also options for putting in a premium stereo system. Not only does the car look good, you’ll look awesome in it, too. Imagine you and the Eclipse Spyder in Houston, Texas. Great picture, isn’t it?

Reader’s Question:

I am supposed to visit a Mitsubishi Dealer in Houston, Texas and plans a 2007 Eclipse purchase. Could you possibly describe to me the interiors of the said car?

My family owns a 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse here in Houston, Texas and we all really love it. Especially when you jump in, you will feel the luxurious yet austere design. The dash extends across the cabin in a single piece of pleasantly finished plastic. Physically, it moves away from the front passenger as it nears the door, adding a perception of roominess. Yet the lower part of the right side dash subtly incorporates a knee bolster. The front airbag supplemental inhibition is masked by a seamless surface. The Stereo and the climate control dials are finger friendly and easy to operate. The 140-watt, six-speaker system that comes standard is not even a loll, and even saves a cubic foot or so that the premium system’s 10-inch subwoofer occupies in the cargo area. The handbrake is positioned on the correct spot which is on the driver’s side of the center console next to the shift lever. A pair of cup holder is located on the right side.

Indeed I could not ask for more with the comfort that I get from the 2007 Eclipse from Mitsubishi. We were also able to get a reliable auto insurance to come with it from this site. They have free quotations and you get fast answers to your queries.
