DSM stuff was total garbage. Consumer Reports shows them as totally unreliable. I would not suggest getting one of those.

Mitsubishi powered cars are hit and miss. Some are POS. Others like my Colt Vista are still running even after years of service (albeit burning a bit of oil). From what I hear, 1st Generation DSM sport coupes (like the 1991 Eclipse) tend to be a bit more reliable than the later ones. I knew a guy who had a Gen 1 Talon and loved it and the only reason he sold it was that he got married and inherited 2 stepkids (little room for growing kiddo's in the back of a Talon). Make sure it's been taken care of if your serious about purchasing it. Although, that lesson is for ALL cars. wink
