STORY

The Mitsubishi Eclipse was a sport compact coupe built from 1989 to 2012 over four generations, developed under the Diamond-Star Motors joint venture with Chrysler. Early turbocharged AWD GSX versions became popular with tuners, while later generations shifted toward larger front-drive V6 grand-touring coupes and convertible Spyders. Production ended in 2012, though the name later returned on the unrelated Eclipse Cross crossover.
