A very fast car good looking car
The restraint system light would not go off.
Back left speaker didn't work (don't know why).
I really like this car. It's comfortable, good looking, and pretty fast. Its also very comfortable (don't know about non-leather seats though). I am glad I got this car.

Great car for the $$$$$
The driver's door does not shut flush with the body. Have not taken it in for repair yet.
The cloth on the interior of the top rides up exposing the mechanics of the top above the passenger door. Haven't had in yet to repair.
I test-drove the GS and the GT. I bought the GT. Overall I love the car!
I was disappointed that Mitsubishi did not make safety features such as anti-lock braking and traction at the very least a stand-alone option. They were only offered in a package deal that included leather seats, premium sound and some other add-ons.
For the price you aren't going to get a better looking convertible.

Great performance for a reasonable price
Not one single problem!
The interior wraps around you.
Easy to drive. Easy to take off in with a standard transmission.
Great performance for a 6 cylinder. Good acceleration, and it has enough power that it will spin its wheels if you leave hard.
Good gas mileage. I currently get about 26 miles to the gallon, and that's with me still romping on it some.
Exhaust is quiet, but still sounds good when you accelerate.
Not much road noise.
The fact that it has a back seat helps a little on the insurance, but it is rather small. I was able to fit three people back there though, even though it is only made for two.
Takes corners great. We took several 20 MPH curves at about 60 or 65 (just testing it out).
I receive lots of comments about how nice it is from people of all ages. Teens think it's neat looking, and even several older (75 or so) ladies commented on it. It appeals to all ages.
The seats are super comfortable, and the power seats adjust in about 8 different ways.

If driven correctly it will beat just about any car in its class and a few that aren't
Not a single fault as of yet and I don't expect any.
What can I say, I love this car. I think it's the best looking car for under $30,000 and the best buy for under $25,000. Good performance and handling and cool looking interior. Great stock sound system with the premium package and cool sunroof.

A 2001 GTP 2 door started out at less than 25,000 dollars, and it would easily handle an eclipse at the drag strip. Easily.
