Test Drive The 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT Spyder

[mossdemo08]

Auto=lame

[plipoop]

These stupid ass haters talking about how much auto sucks really need to stop sucking so much dick and grow up. Chances are they don't own the car and are insecure as shit. I personally own a dark metallica blue 04 GTS and while it's certainly not the fastest thing in the world, it doesn't make me go "wtf automatic is gay lolol". Grow up people.

[ScreamoGuy17]

I love most of the people are like "automatic = gay"... If it had to be a manual for you to drive it... Then don't even bother buying the car in the first place.

[MrJoshyboy3107]

automatic.....wtf

[HedgieDiva]

I had the GTS! Got totaled not stock; used to rape other cars. <3 saved my life this car not a scratch on me and nobody was hurt; v6 34 valve 3.0 magnaflow k&n supercharged. Front wheel but It KICKED ASS!

[allenorgan27]

it was looking good until he said it is an automatic

[punchmaster123]

Nice shorts dude

[6PcMcSuckits]

I love the haters on here about the 3G's. I'll trade looks over speed anyday of the week. Which is exactly what the 3G was about. You can keep your 1G and 2G eclipse. The 3G has decent power but not racing material. It's a great looking car and perfect for dropping the top and taking your girl to the beach.

[wwelh4]

shoud i buy this car

[datpimpinboy]

@wwelh4 you should. They are great cars!

[dahacker2312]

i dont know what to do... should i buy my sisters mitsubishi eclipse 07 SPECIAL EDITION or get one of these?

[datpimpinboy]

@dahacker2312 How much money do you have?? These are geat cars, id recommend it, but a 07 SE sounds really nice

[dahacker2312]

@datpimpinboy well i dont really have anissue with monay (ive been saving up)..... and i have both those cars as an option....

[GiselaMajchrzak]

[yourocobro]

This is the kind of freaking car where all i wanna do is frickin shove my foot to the floor 24/7!!!

[JobeMinacum]

@somir123456789 Does it have a clutch pedal? NO. So it's not a manual.

[kolb3y]

@JobeMinacum its got a quick shift 4 gear thing ive neva used it but it sounds purty cool

[JobeMinacum]

@kolb3y Does it have a clutch pedal? NO. It's an automatic.

[kolb3y]

@JobeMinacum i didnt say it wasnt dude i just said its got a quick shift get over ur self

[JobeMinacum]

@kolb3y You're a retard.

[kolb3y]

@JobeMinacum ahhh k ur an idiot i beat u and u come back with ur a tard.. ur a disapointment to the human race end of story

[JobeMinacum]

@kolb3y Um, No. You're the one who thinks an automatic is a standard. You're a retard.

[kolb3y]

@JobeMinacum um, u guys are assholes i have one im not saying its not an auto matic i was just saying a feature that was kinda like a manual but now i relize that when u try to clear something up u get riddiculed from faggets that have nothing better to do. and yes I have an 01 eclipse spyder gt

[kolb3y]

@JobeMinacum ummm i have one, and i wasnt saying that it wasnt an auto i was just stating a feature that's kinda like a idk if its in gt but its in gs. but now i know that when u try to clear something up u get riddiculed by troles that just want every one to see there comments and think that they are so smart... but go ahead do it if it makes u feel better about ur self... Winning

[JobeMinacum]

@kolb3y You're a retard. Especially from the Charlie Sheen reference. You drive a POS eclipse. You are not "Winning" anything. Please do the self a favor, and wrap that piece of shit eclipse around a tree, and end your worthless life. :D

[kolb3y]

@JobeMinacum yea but its got a spider on it

[JobeMinacum]

@JobeMinacum You're so clever for a retard. You IQ must be 70.

[Submarinacorona]

@gnolhsobners did u pay that every month or every 6 months cause I'm gonna get that car when I turn 17 and was wondering?? Please get back 2 me

[datpimpinboy]

@Submarinacorona I pay 116 for my insurance on my eclipse and im 17. Get it under ur parents insurance, and get good grades at school u get some discounts

[GalaxyTrigger82]

@saabkyle04 how much did u pay for this cause im considering buying one and making a summer project out of it?

[gnolhsobners]

Insurance for me on this exact car was 320 through state farm i was 17/18 yrs old,.

[gevorg95]

Drive fast

[francis079]

best quality video yeah man iPhone

[TRiNi2DBONE42]

i own a 2000 mitsubishi eclipse gt and im 18.. insurance is a btch but with this car its definetly worth it lol i love driving it of course i have put in some upgrades... a short ram intake, borla exhaust, but all in all it is a great car!

[SonicGamer1991]

Im looking at a gs 5 speed!

[NExplosion666]

People are commenting, saying whether or not their insurance costs are high. What exactly is high or low in their opinions can very greatly. Clarification would be much appreciated. Thanks/

[smsoccer25]

my parents just got me one of these a few weeks back. silver with a black top. Its so much fun to drive. One thing i dont like about it is it needs premium fuel. hate spending the extra couple dollars for gas

[renski1792]

@smsoccer25 you can't put regular gas in it?

[smsoccer25]

@renski1792 well inside the gas cap, it says preimium fuel only and if it will make it run better, and last long, ill keep doing it lol

[renski1792]

@smsoccer25 haha o i see. I bet that costs a lot of money feeding it with premium fuel then..I was looking into getting a 00-05 eclipse before college but idk..I hear the insurance rate is pretty high too..

[smsoccer25]

@renski1792 yea it does and it is high too, idk how high though cuz my parents pay for the insurance but ill have too soon

[saclve]

sorry dude nice car but ur video is pretty damn gay lol i dont blame u for making a video but if ur going to take a vid driving do that dont talk a bunch and drive like a 12 year old girl gosh

[GuyandLori]

I have a 2003 model; tons of fun to drive. What a great generation for the Eclipse. The best body style, by far.

[muya322]

Wow can I have that 5 minutes back please?

Get some real shorts, btw. You're sending mixed signals to the ladies.

[MrNekra]

automatic?fail.

[Miroslanchev]

I heard that the older ones (the ones with the big stop lights) don't have good electronics... so did Mitsubishi fixed this problem in this model ???? please reply

[CashewBoyLiam]

Auto is for pussies, get a manual ;)!

[krocialblack]

@CashewBoyLiam

Wow... Your orignal... -____-

[CashewBoyLiam]

@krocialblack It's a joke you fucking geek, I'm from the UK where most cars are manuals!

[krocialblack]

@CashewBoyLiam

Thats original too... Woooow... So most cars in the UK are manuals. You guys want a cookie? Get the fuck outta here...

[jerm26554]

Have a nice black GT(not convertible) its awesome, loaded, leather etc. Guy kept it in the garage, very speedy, my insurance through geico is only 76 bucks a month. I traded in a Blazer ZR2(piece of crap!) for 3000, and the insurance just stayed the same. Blew away a nice looking 6 cylinder mustang and it was an 08 model HA!

[skyisfelling]

how is the handling? in every review i've read, critics complain about the poor handling, and also a very large blind spot when the top is up??

[Morker327]

@skyisfelling handling is awesome I feel, very responsive. but the blindspots almost get me in accidents sometimes. have to go out of your way to see

[NissanTy]

these are fun little cars, i prefer the hard tops though and of course the v6, the 4 cylinder really dampens the fun of these cars, the auto with the v6 shouldn't be too shabby.

[comgeturs]

"it's really quick for an automatic." As opposed to what? Manual? How does that make it any faster?

[450modbike721]

lol the convirtible is really girly looking i like hard top the best =)

[Wiley4481]

@450modbike721

No.....it doesn't.You sound retarded.They dont look girly at all,Some do because of color,but thats with all cars.With the top down it looks badass al the time,and I've picked up more girls in it than I have with any other car.

[alexitobatres]

jajaja your test drive suckssssssssss......at lease drive it over 120 mph....BS

[ferretboy425]

i just bought one today for my first car, it got crashed while driving it back home :(

[MarkJacksonMusic]

wow, these cars are awesome. i want this for my first car. i get my license this november. lol

[DangerousMan24]

This may sound stupid to ask, but ive been hearing it for 3 years now. Is the mistubishi eclipse models really girl cars?

[baddog548]

This is just like my car! I love the eclipse spyder gt! best damb car i've ever driven! I got that car over chirstmas vacation and i've had it for about two months now and i'm never getting rid of it!

[saabkyle04]

Glad to hear it man! They're so much fun

[trailrider125]

@baddog548 yea i got one and i loved it till i slammed into a curb. I was trying to show off and it totally backfired. oops. now im trying to figure out how to get it drive good again

[East17A]

@baddog548 would you please tell me if it is possible to get 17' rims for it do you think it i will fit ? i don't know the diameter on the original rims but i was looking forward to make the wheels looks wider please if any advice it will help me thank you :-) its because i'm about getting one too

[DizNBoiAz]

LOL WHAT IS LOVE??? so uh hows insurance for an 18 yr old wit 1 of these ??? ^.^

[saabkyle04]

From what I understand it's pretty high unfortunately :( haha I know right! Great song!

[SLKclan]

@saabkyle04 Idk how high the insurance is. I'm going to be buying insurance on my 01 stratus r/t later today (which is the same car as an eclipse) but I got a quote from geico at around $154/mo (I'm an 18yr old male with a new license as of friday)

[detroy54321]

@saabkyle04 damn too bad i would love for this to be my first car,,,,what fun car would you suggest that has a good insurance price?

[rezokorg]

@DizNBoiAz im 18 i got this one the coupe GT though and in red insurance just liability runs me $70 a month, with 1 speeding ticket (not with the eclipse though) paid 5 grand for mine

[alexkollos]

@DizNBoiAz I'm 21 y/o male with 2 speeding and 1 moving violation, and I pay 167 a month for an 01 GT Eclipse HT in MN. It's pretty damn high,

[blackcr125]

@DizNBoiAz I'm a 22 male with an eclipse gts (01 i think) and my insurance is only around 120 i think

[ryanwolver123]

@blackcr125 Your paying too much, I have an 01 eclipse and im an 18 year old male, and I pay 92

[XXPapaHettXX]

@ryanwolver123 Who do you have for insurance?

[kevenfreaks]

sadly homeboy.. not cheap watsoever... ill give sum numbers. i got an 2005 eclipse gt 50k.. im 19. 1 speedin ticket. got my license at 17. im frm florida. nd im in the military.. try payin $400/m for minimun full coverage insurance.. im inlove wit the eclipse but it is a ridiculusly expensive toy..

[datpimpinboy]

@kevenfreaks im 17 and I pay 116 for my insurance on my 03 eclipse

[jedbravo]

@DizNBoiAz im 16 and i have RS and mines only like 1200 a year

[punkmonkey123]

@jedbravo "only 1200 a year" Considering I'm 17 and pay 210 for 6 months of my insurance on my car (with mine being a convertible plus I don't get the best grades so no discounts) I can tell you that is pretty fucking high.

[jedbravo]

@punkmonkey123 are you a girl? girls drive convertables un less its a corvette



[punkmonkey123]

@jedbravo Nope. :P I'm a guy. So 1200 is still a lot.

[Dan4hockey99]

some test drive....I can film myself driving around too

[saabkyle04]

why don't you do it then?

[Dan4hockey99]

@saabkyle04 I have better things to do

[comgeturs]

@saabkyle04 Because he's really 12yr old troller XD

[lkrfn1]

@Dan4hockey99 what were you expecting from a video that is titled test drive?

[JT18260]

@Dan4hockey99

Who gives a shit kid, he's posting test drives of various cars for educational purpose. keep ur 2 cents to ur self.

[JoHNRiCEY]

Go with eclipse gsx or gst 2nd generation if you really want a good and fast car . DSM for life

[MAJORleague32]

is this car good on gas?

[kenneykole]

pretty good on gas

20s in the city and 30s in highway.

[mspyder]

he is doing a "test drive" and he cant put it into "manu-automatic" because he doesn't have his tripod with him... lame...

[saabkyle04]

Wah Wah Wah, oh well lol

[DYNEX55]

[cmala100]

[forgetaboutit555]

hey, what kind of problems/ matenience do you get, or have to do to the car when you get to 120k miles?

[ayakirisawa]

[averatec6]

[anothermbpuser]

Interesting how many parts on the Eclipse I recognize as also being on the Galant (friend has an 03 Galant) such as the handles (inside and out) and the mirrors.

[filiphilopeno]

EYAHH WHAT IS LOVE.

[thecarexpert18]

toyota/ lexus chime and now / mitsubishi chime???

[newandused1998]

were's the chime?

[rw93090]

The Manu-Matic Tranny in those Mitsubishi's is actually a Chrysler Autostick transmissions. Chrysler and Mitsubishi had a deal in the 90's that lasted until the early '00s where they could use eachothers powertrains.

[chorstma44]

Nice video! I didnt even know you were using your iphone the quality is so good.

[fordescort98]

hey man nice video as usual. Have you ever tried it in manumatic? Nice car even though its auto :)

[lkrfn1]

this is gonna sound like a stupid question but im real dumb with cars but how does the manumatic work?

[ElectroGhandi]

It's just a regular automatic but you can tell the computer when to shift by rocking the shifting to the + or -.

[lkrfn1]

thanks man. just got my eclipse. its a 2005 with teh sporttronic and i love it.

[jmurray01]
