I bought a silver 2001 Eclise Spyder GT with the V6 and loaded, with the 5 speed this spring, put 5g in it so far. Awesome ride and looks sharper to me than most new drop tops. Hard to find his trim with stick. Its a keeper.

bad Audio

Just got a 2014 literally yesterday! AWSOME car I love it and your review

30.1 MPG combined, I got that with my 2015 Kia Soul base 1.6L automatic without the super expensive hybrid components.

Found this same one for 2k white in good condition 180k on it

Eddie Bauer were best xlt were trash

I have one of these 2014 rspec.. worst decision buying this car AC sucks so bad prepare to be sweating in anything above 95° for the first 15 minutes of your drive.. and gets warm everytime you stop nd trans is always shifting and feeling funny absolute trash in stop and go traffic.. do not buy one of these.. they look good and they are fast in a straight line and radio is really good. Evrything else is so bad cant wait to get rid of mine before the trans goes out very common

FYI...The first Toyota convertible sold in the US was the 1982 Celica Sun Chaser. It hasd a wide Targa-like roll bar with a plasic rear window. I've owned an '86 and '93 Celica convertibles, and I currently own a 2000 Solara V6 SLE convertible. Everything on it works and it's extremely reliable. I love them all.

Es un vehiculo increible. Como todos, tiene sus falencias. Pero dentro de su categoria y su año de salida es bastante bueno. Tengo una 2001 XLT V6 3.0. soy su segundo dueño y sin ninguna mantencion en taller oficial aun es bastante rapida (0 a 100 en menos de 9 segundos) y tiene fuerza de sobra para transitar csrgsda de familia y maletas sin que se sienta en su andar. 250.000 kilometros. El unico detalle es su rendimiento por litro, pero lo compensa demostrando fuerza y rspidez.

COMPLETE !!!! JUNK !!! RUN

Bro corny as hell

That thing lookes dated af for 2013

Beautiful car I’m shopping for for one now

Love the vehicle... I own one my self

What's the difference between the 4R70W and E4OD transmissions

Lots of misinformation in this video...there were 4 generations and they were 1g 1989-1994, 2g 1995-1999, 3g 2000-2005, 4g 2006-2012. The 1g could be found under 3 names, Mitsubishi Eclipse, Eagle Talon, Plymouth Laser, and the 2g has both the Eclipse and Talon still. This SOHC 6g72 can be found in a DOHC variant in the Mitsubishi 3000gt/GTO and the Dodge Stealth.

The transmission isnt like a BMW or AMG Mercedes...The engine on the other hand is a freaking beast. I have a 2013 rspec with 125000 miles. Original brakes also...along with massive highway pulls

I have a 2002, great suv, paid 2500 for it 6 years ago, I’ve put 100,000 miles on it with just regular maintenance. Great car!!

I have one of these red lines and the car hauls ass who gives a f*** what it looks like

I have one of those, bought it brand new..... love it..... never had a problem with it so far.....

over 100mph in a public road no no no you cant do that, get on the hwy than on the street you dont wanna hit a kill some one

review some more cars plz

These were really good cars surprisingly you still see them around My daughter in law has the same with 200k miles 😅 Great review man.

I just picked up a 2005 4x4 for snowy winter. Nothing at all wrong with that first series Escape. Except for the crummy front seats. Maybe OK if you are 5 ft. and 140 Lbs., but for my larger size they crunch me up. I will get around to fixing that upholstery wise when I have some time to mess with it. My 2010 came with a noticeably better seat design. They are no Mercedes or BMW, but very serviceable and cheap compared to the $1,000+ each complicated repair costs of euro brands. Had an opportunity to keep a 4th generation eco boost 4 banger Titanium edition, with all the Microsoft and alerting bells and whistles. No way. The first & second generation models are a better vehicle all the way around. The government ECO crap only works on level ground. In the hills the system is constantly spooling up looking for a lower gear and actually gave less MPG than my 2010 V6 on the same roads. As to the alternator: Ya PIA. The problems happen too often because people take the two piece cooling shroud off when replacing them. Ford NEVER adds anything that costs more than 5 cents unless their engineers say it is needed. It almost looks like I could add a fresh air flexi hose to it and suck in front air dam air to finally cure the too much heat design flaw.

Questionable? REALLY? Yet I see them everywhere, my family has had 4 of them. I talk to people that got over 300,000 miles. Its a true machine compared to todays pure JUNK!! BTW, there is a switch to lock the differentials for ALL WHEEL DRIVE.

I can tell you love this Car, i can understand you :D

My Ford Escape is 4x4, if you turn it on and you not off-road you will break something. But there are 3 to 4 different types of Escapes.

Do they have great fuel economy?

The older 1st gen was 4wd where you could split 90\10 or 50/50 but looks like they changed that down the road and made it locked awd hence the plaque

I have a 2002 XLT with 240k miles, my sister had a 2006 and had to replace the transmission twice and the motor once, hers had less miles than mine. Mine is still on the original motor and transmission.

The thing that pops down from the back of the console when you are in the back seat once held cup holders that would rotate out. They were pretty flimsy and a pain to get back in - possibly the biggest "fail" for the interior of this model. There is also a small compartment on the driver's left side, about mid-way between the bottom of the wheel and the hood release, that pulls out and down that is just big enough to hold a roll of quarters. Just a quirky feature I really like. (If you aren't using it for quarters to feed to parking meters or pay tolls, it is handy for storing a roll of life savers.) I have a 2002 Solara SLE convertible with just under 168K miles, and it is still a great car. Just replaced the top and had it painted, and I am looking forward to the next 100+K miles. (Mine is definitely _not_ for sale.)

Thanks for a wonderful video!! Excellent JOB!

Sounding good I got a muffler delete on my 3,8 I can't delete the cat cause I'm in California

Thank you for sharing the review! These are awesome SUV’s! I have a 2006 2.3L 4WD and it’s awesome on snow. However they are not all time 4WD as you mention in the video. They are FWD under normal conditions and the rear wheels only engage in slippery conditions. The system is called intelligent 4WD. Please check and update your video accordingly.

these look better than the newer model

They're not all wheel drive,they're four wheel drive.There is a difference.All wheel drive is on full time,four wheel drive is computer controlled.You need to do your homework on this.

Hey man I got one of these as my first car (previously my fathers) and the battery constantly dies and when i turn the key it says “theft” any idea on how to fix?

Mine is 04 I have 312000 miles on it and really reliable. The alternator is the only thing that goes bad more than it should

You're wrong the charger was never produced with a manual transmission

My wife bought that 2005 Escape at an auction recently. It's a decent auto.

i heard the 3.5 , 3.6 and 5.7 are the best , is that true?

My 2004 has a switch on the dash for 4 wheel drive

Muy bonito solara aunque tenga demasiados detalles y fallos, quiero uno pero lo prefiero en color beige y carroceria blanca, son carros hechos con calidad!! no como los toyota de ahora 😪

Stop saying, I have to point out, we get it you are pointing everything out dam man

Had these before drove well for 3 years and crapped out on me had so many issues fun to drive powerful V6 but cheaply built vehicle mine was the 03 model

Oh yeah you're wrong on a lot of this this is what I specialize in what you are standing in front of is a Saturn ION Red line but all of the technology comes from Saab so you're pretty much driving a Saab same ecotec platform all of that ecotec motor from Chrysler came from Saab if you're going to buy one of these you could buy a Saab cheaper and they run better if they're better cars and they're faster don't buy these pieces of junk buy a Saab

Wish my dads old Escape had a beige interior like that…

What’s that rear emblem, looks like the coupe badge?

Such a beautiful crossover

There were 4 generations of the Eclipse, the first two undoubtedly being the best. Rooted in rallysport with the LEGENDARY 4G63, an engine that to this day still makes V8 guys shake in their boots, they are becoming more and more sought after for their legendary tuning capabilities, the pinnacle of which is Boostin's 2nd gen GSX making well over 1000hp. It is the fastest manual car in the world and just achieved high 6's in the quarter mile this year (2022). Anyway, I only came here because I just murdered one of these 3rd gen V6's in my stock Mk7 GTI and was curious since I know almost nothing about the post DSM era Eclipse's.
