Thinking of buying the 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse?
No 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. This page puts the 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Before you sign for the Eclipse
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
Specs, explained
It uses the 2.4L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
The EPA rates it at 10.5 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 32 litres. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $16.28. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,975 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who rents the Eclipse
It suits a summer weekend or a special occasion more than a move. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Size and space
Low and compact, it is a car for the drive more than the cargo. Luggage space is rated at 453 litres: a family's bags for a long weekend.
Drive it on your own roads
Try the Eclipse on your commute, then decide. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the Eclipse for a week and see how it fits your life.
Choosing the right one
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2007 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$2,975 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
