Since the 4th-generation Mitsubishi Eclipse was launched as a 2006 model, the 2007 lineup receives mild upgrades. Eclipse is offered in two trim and performance levels. A 162 horsepower, 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine, propels the GS model, while the GT comes fitted with a 263 horsepower, 3.8-liter V-6. Both engines project a deep note through the oversize tailpipes. With the standard 6-speed manual gearbox, the GT accelerates from 0-to-60 miles per hour in 5.8-seconds. Optional on the GT is a 5-speed automatic. The GS features a 5-speed manual, or 4-speed automatic. New for ‘07, all Eclipse models gain a standard anti-theft system with hood switch, and the high-back front bucket seats, inspired by Mitsubishi rally cars, feature integrated, open head restraints. Both Eclipse models are equipped with standard 17-inch, five-spoke aluminum wheels with V-rated tires. The optional GT Premium Performance Package adds 18-inch, seven-spoke aluminum wheels and V-rated tires.
