Common questions
How much does a Mitsubishi Eclipse cost?
A 1989 Mitsubishi Eclipse cost $11,999 new. Over the past 12 months, 3 have sold publicly at a median of $15,000. The Shifty Estimate for a well-kept example is $26,000. Cars have changed hands anywhere from $19,500 to $32,500, depending on mileage, color, and history.
What is a 1989 Mitsubishi Eclipse worth today?
The Shifty Estimate is $26,000. That sits above the $15,000 median of actual sales because the median counts every car that sold, including high-mileage examples, while the estimate describes a clean, low-mileage one bought today. We rate confidence low: 3 public sales in a year is not enough to be firm, and the honest range is wide. Treat it as a starting point, not a valuation.

About the 1989 Mitsubishi Eclipse
The first-generation Eclipse launched Mitsubishi into American sports car consciousness, establishing the template for affordable Japanese performance that would define the '90s. Built on the shared DSM platform with Eagle Talon and Plymouth Laser, the Eclipse offered genuine sports car dynamics at Civic prices. The naturally aspirated 2.0-liter produced 135hp, but the real star was the turbocharged 4G63 engine delivering 190hp, serious power for 1989. Diamond-Star Motors' Illinois plant churned out these front-drivers with surprisingly sharp handling, thanks to sophisticated suspension tuning and low curb weight. Early examples, especially the rare all-wheel-drive GSX variants, have gained cult status among tuners and collectors. Clean, unmodified first-gen Eclipses are increasingly scarce, as most fell victim to modification or neglect. The combination of '90s nostalgia, Fast & Furious fame, and genuine performance credentials makes pristine examples surprisingly collectible today.
