I've decided it's time to sell my Eclipse for something different. Has only 146,xxx miles, no rust, starts immediately every time. Features sun roof, nice leather interior with no rips or cracking, power everything, hot heat and cold A/C, 3.0L V6 is good on gas, automatic transmission with slap-shift, 18" TSW rims in hyper silver with keyed lug nuts, 5mm spacers in the rear, two-tone gloss and flat black paint, spray-tinted Euro tail lights. Less than a thousand miles on the oil change. Has a Kenwood CD receiver that is MP3/USB/I-Pod compatible. Also comes with the stock 17" rims and lug nuts, though the rims are in rough condition and need tires; throw some snow tires on them and you're set for winter while keeping the 18's from the salt.
New in the last 3,000 miles:
Tires
Timing belt/tensioners/pulleys
A/C and Power Steering Belts
Water Pump
Radiator
Fail-Safe Thermostat
Front Lower Control Arms/Ball Joints
Tie Rods
Front Wheel Bearings
Could still use new front shocks, I just never got around to it. I replaced the rear hatch, so submodel badge on hatch states RS from the donor car, and I installed the spoiler to the new hatch. The bumper and hood are beat up from the previous owner (I zip-tie stitched cracks in the bumper) but both could easily be found at a junk yard or online on the cheap. A few other unnoticeable dings throughout, some scratches. Windshield is cracked, though not in the driver's line of vision. I was quoted $150 out the door by Safelite to have a new one installed, again I just never got around to it. Also recently developed an exhaust leak but is not too loud. With some TLC this could easily be a very nice car again.

Mitsubishi's first US chairman since 2007 charged with revitalizing brand
Fri, 02 Nov 2012Have a look at Mitsubishi North America's vehicle page and you'll find seven cars in four model lines: i-MiEV electric hatch, Lancer sedan, Lancer Evolution and Sportback, Outlander and Outlander Sport, and Galant sedan. The Galant has 3.9 tires in the automotive grave, and the only hope for mainstream excitement, the Eclipse coupe and Spyder, had hemlock poured down their crankcases last year. Increasing the quotient of bleak, the Lancer isn't due for a refresh until 2014, the coming Outlander PHEV will sell in miniscule numbers when it does arrive, a little sports car has been nixed and the only other Mitsu being considered for our landmass is the Colt, which, for its stellar fuel economy numbers, looks like a car designed by Pikachu. There's also that matter of declining NA market share in a rising overall market, Mitsubishi's piece of the total pie currently hovering around the 0.4-percent mark according to Automotive News.
The company has decided to do more about it, reassigning Executive Vice President and Head Officer of the Headquarters Product Projects & Strategy Group Gayu Uesugi to be the new chairman of Mitsubishi Motors North America. It will be the first time in five years that someone has filled the chairman position at MMNA.
The hope is that with Uesugi's 35 years with the company, his experience in the company's global product plan and his success in emerging market strategy, he's the man to "[develop] a product plan and growth strategy for the US market" that will put things right. Or at least better. He will work with Yoichi Yokozawa, who has been CEO of MMNA since last year. There are more details on the move in the press release below.
Mitsubishi subcompact sedan coming to US in 2015?
Tue, 14 May 2013Speaking to some of its dealers recently, Mitsubishi unveiled its plans for a new subcompact sedan offering in the US. Automotive News reports the automaker showed off a rendering of a new subcompact sedan and said the machine will debut sometime in 2015.
The little four-door could be based on the three-cylinder G4 Concept that bowed at the Shanghai Motor Show this year, effectively making it a four-door version of the current five-door Mirage. Mitsubishi dealers are currently starving for new products to entice buyers into showrooms. A redesigned Outlander will show up this summer, long before the teased subcompact sedan. The automaker is also planning to bring out a revised version of the five-door Mirage compact later this year.
Dealers are taking the announcement as a sign that Mitsubishi has finally begun to turn things around. Automotive News spoke with Scott Grove, who owns two Mitsubishi dealerships near Chicago. Grove said he thought the dealer meeting was more positive than it's been in years, and that he believes Mitsubishi is finally on the offensive.
Mitsubishi Mirage G4 sedan debuting in Montreal
Thu, 09 Jan 2014Around this same time last year, Mitsubishi used the Montreal Auto Show for the North American introduction of its 2014 Mirage. This year, the Japanese automaker will reveal the sedan version of the subcompact wearing the Mirage G4 nameplate, according to the auto show's website and a couple of fresh teaser images.
We got our first look at this Mirage sedan as previewed by the Concept G4 at the 2013 Shanghai Motor Show, and the production version of that sedan ended up wearing the Attrage name in Thailand and other global markets. There's no official information from Mitsubishi at this time about the Mirage G4, but we wouldn't be surprised to see the small sedan follow the same path as the hatchback, showing up for a US debut at the New York Auto Show before going on sale in the fall. Check out the teaser images in the gallery below.
