Mitsubishi Eclipse RS (2002)
for sale
Price: US $1,000.00
Price: US $1,000.00
Up for auction is a 2002 Mitsubishi Eclipe RS. My fiancée, Jennifer, graduated college and has a source of income so she decided to purchase another car. This Eclipse is her previous daily driver. This vehicle is listed locally. If it sells locally, then this auction will be pulled prior to ending.
She is the third owner of the vehicle having obtained it previously from a woman that had a mechanic in the family that keep the car updated. The last 43K miles have been put on by Jennifer who has kept it maintained with basic maintenance such a oil and air filter changes, tire and brake pad replacements, spark plugs, etc.
The car runs. It has rough starts on cold winter days taking a little bit to warm up, otherwise drives fine. I suspect there may be some improvements to be made by working on the fuel injectors as I swapped out the spark plugs but that didn't fix it. Take this with a grain of salt as I am not a licensed mechanic, just a hobbyist. This vehicle is not being sold with any type of warranty.
The vehicle was involved in a reported accident Sept 2012. This very minor, very low mph backing up in a parking spot. No dents, possible paint transfer. The police officer on the scene was in disbelief that he was even called out for it; however, the other driver that was hit had a pension for the dramatic.
If you have any questions about the car feel free to contact Jennifer at (706) 495-7697 or write to her via email: jjennings685230@gmail.com. I tried to cover everything that I'd like to know if I was buying this vehicle. We do have additional photos available but eBay limits you to 12 before assessing an additional fee per picture.
Please review my eBay feedback and know that you are dealing with an outstanding member of the eBay community. Title is free and clear and ready to be signed over to whoever buys the vehicle. Good luck!

Shop Maintenance
-The engine was replaced and has 30K less miles on it than the car body. This ad uses the total mileage, so the engine is 30K less than the odometer picture and the mileage on this ad. This work was done prior to Jennifer buying the car by the mechanic in the first owner's family.
-Replaced alternator
-Had a radiator leak around the top plastic seal which was replaced. No longer an issue.
