If you don't want an Infiniti - or a Lexus, or a Hyundai - Mitsubishi plans to offer Sirius satellite radio as standard gear on its new Eclipse Spyder.

Car maker Mitsubishi doesn't want to be left out of the satellite radio bandwagon, announcing today that it will offer Sirius satellite radio receivers as standard equipment on its 2008 Eclipse Spyder; Mitsubishi will make Sirius satellite radio receivers an available factory-installed option in all its 2008 model vehicles.

"Mitsubishi is excited to have Sirius Satellite Radio on every newEclipse Spyder and available to the full lineup," said Mike Krebs, VicePresident of Product Strategy at Mitsubishi Motors North America, in a release. "Siriusprogramming is a perfect compliment to the thrilling design and performance of Mitsubishi vehicles."

The 2008 Eclipse Spyder goes on sale this April.
