What year range was this?

I only ask because I used to have a 2003 eclipse (bought used in 2010 or so and kept until 2016) and I loved it, because it got decent mileage and nobody ever asked for a ride (which is why I still have a coupe), but I also really never encountered anyone else with one, much less driving like an idiot (and it wasn’t me, I’m a really cautious driver).. so I’m kinda curious. Coupes in general have never been particularly popular around here.

Did I just lucky and get one that survived?

Mitsubishi stopped making the eclipse in 1999. Not sure what it was they made after that but it was not an Eclipse.

Doesn’t look like anything to me.

What?

You said they didn’t make it, I sent the Kelly blue book listing for the exact year I had..

(Maybe you think it was meant to be a picture? It isn’t.)

lol, I think they are saying that the “Eclipse” died after Gen 2 stopped in 2000.

And I have to say that I agree. Gen 2 was the best Eclipse design.
