Timing, they say, is everything. Take the Mitsubishi Eclipse. So enamored were we with its acceleration, stability, and, well, outsider personality that we immediately placed it—in alpha-dog, turbocharged, all-wheel-drive GSX trim—on our 10Best Cars list, where it stayed for four consecutive years. But while the Eclipse was basking in the sunlight, its competitors came back with smoother and faster coupes that bumped it off the list, never to return. Mitsubishi stayed with it, however, keeping the Eclipse in play for more than 20 years and four generations, offering a quirky alternative to the status quo and churning out some killer concepts in the process.

To bring you both comprehensive information and an expert opinion on the 2010 Mitsubishi Eclipse, TheCarConnection's editors have driven both the coupe and Spyder versions, along with both engines. Inside, the plain-faced dash of the 2010 Eclipse is made with good-quality materials that are fitted together well. Review continues belowThe 162-horsepower, 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine that's standard on the base Eclipse GS and GS Sport quite simply struggles to keep up, and doesn't fit the Eclipse's aggressive appearance. The 265-hp, 3.8-liter V-6 that comes in GT models brings a completely different personality, with its ample torque making the 2010 Mitsubishi Eclipse feel at times like a front-wheel-drive muscle car. Stability control is now standard on the Mitsubishi Eclipse for 2010; also included are anti-lock disc brakes, side impact airbags, and side-curtain bags (except on the Spyder).

Angular Front Exterior View - 2010 Mitsubishi Eclipse 3dr Coupe Auto GSThe Mitsubishi Eclipse is a two-door front-wheel-drive sports coupe, built in the U.S. at a factory in Normal, Illinois. Today's Eclipse competes against the likes of the Honda Accord coupe, the Hyundai Genesis Coupe, and base V-6 versions of the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro. From some shared running gear, Chrysler and Mitsubishi developed the two-door Dodge Avenger and Chrysler Sebring coupe, which had more in common with the four-door Mitsubishi Galant. The current Mitsubishi Eclipse hit the market as a 2006 model, with the Spyder arriving as a 2007 model. Mitsubishi has built the final Eclipse of the current generation, but has not announced plans to replace the sporty coupe and convertible.
