Mitsubishi Eclipse
The Mitsubishi Eclipse gets a few aesthetic tweaks for 2009, giving it a sportier look, especially on particular aspects of the top-of-the-line GT version. This sports coupe has great lines, and its behaviour during normal riding is without criticism. Its 162 horsepower four-cylinder engine makes for interesting performances and better fuel-efficiency, while the 260 horsepower V6 engine gives the Eclipse a more vigorous presence.
