Driving automobiles





Mistsubishi Eclipse

I was thinking about buying a Mitsubishi Eclipse for my wife.  
I was hoping that somebody out here could educate me a little bit
into the options that were available during the 1992 model year.
Specifically, what engines were available and what were the horsepower
and 0-60 ratings on these engines (I may drive it every now and then).

Thanks in advance,

Chris

    I drove a 91 Eclipse GS with auto transmission.  I think that the auto
    transmission was terrible.  Very slushy and I expected a lot more kick
    out of that car.  Anyway, top speed on that car was around 110mph.

    good luck!

    yes your right, the engine on the GS thru the GSX model is an inline 4 2.0 liter DOHC
    and the engine on the base model is an inline 4 1.8L SOHC engine. My mistake !
