The 2010 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder is wider, taller and longer, sporting a wide track and the longest wheelbase to date. The Spyder's curvaceous body, muscular shape and crouching-tiger presence make it look somewhat smaller than it is. Impressive in this price range is the fully-automatic folding cloth top that hides itself beneath a power tonneau cover in less than 20 seconds. The Spyder's wide-mouth grille, aero-wedge profile, tightly stretched skin and a laid-back windshield make a bold statement. The car comes off visually as a two-seater with a low, tight-fitting "speedster" top.
Based on the fourth-generation Eclipse Coupe, the Eclipse Spyder is available as the four-cylinder GS or V6 GT, and features as standard a premium audio system and a power cloth top that tucks away under a flush tonneau in about 19 seconds. It looks great and is pleasant to drive, especially the 265-horsepower V6.
Tthe 2010 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder looks terrific top-up or top-down and can be great fun to drive on twisty two-lanes, especially the V6-powered GT with its 18-inch performance tires. The handling is good, the steering crisp and the braking strong. 60 miles per hour from rest comes up in a respectable seven seconds. The attractive interior is ergonomically excellent and the seats are first-rate.

Power Cloth Soft Top
The multi-layer fabric top, with its polyester and cotton interior headliner and heated glass rear window, provides a surprisingly quiet cabin when it's up, and a hydraulic system, quieter than the previous model's electric motors, folds it completely out of sight under a flush-fitting power tonneau in about 19 seconds.
Rockford Fosgate Premium Audio
This surprisingly standard high-end system pumps 650 watts of peak power through nine speakers, including an eight-inch, long-throw subwoofer in a designed-in, fiberglass-reinforced, acoustic-suspension enclosure between the rear seats. It includes a six-disc CD changer with MP3 playback capability, plus unique automatic sound equalization for top-up or top-down driving, custom music genre and sound field settings and an industry-first memory that stores DSP settings in six presets.
The standard GS 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine generates decent performance, at least partially due to its patented Mitsubishi Innovative Variable timing Electronic Control (MIVEC) system, which varies intake valve timing to enhance both low-end torque and high-rpm power. The GT's 3.8-liter V6, which also benefits from MIVEC, offers significantly more horsepower to much better motivate the Spyder's considerable mass. Both the four-speed and five-speed automatic transmissions feature Sportronic shifting for manual control of gear changes when desired.
