    As a previous owner of a +400 hp beast. Undoubtedly, the Mirage is a great buy: 1. 10 Yr warranty 2. 40 mpg, 3. Even with its size, it is safer than most used car. 4. Good reliability. 5. Latest phone integration (so GPS, bluetooth) 6. Rearview camera (for inexperience drivers) 7. Not to mention that you can get it with extremely good discounts and 0% interest rate. We have a winner. Not for an enthusiast but once again, that is not the target market.

I love mine and both my Mirages have been great cars with no issues just as with our Outlander Sport. Mitsubishi has really impressed us over the years with how reliable ours, our families and friends Mitsubishis have been, no issues with any!

    I own a 2015 Mirage DE 5-speed. 31,000 trouble free miles. It won't win a drag race, it's not a Lexus, but it can easily beat the EPA ratings if driven properly. The Mirage is inexpensive, efficient, reliable transportation. It's not an enthusiast's car but it's a great commuter car. Every car has a purpose, the Mirage fits the bill for those who want a reliable vehicle for a low price point. Read the reviews of owners versus the media, owners speak nothing but praise for the Mirage. Journalists trash it because they're comparing it to a Lexus or a BMW. For $13k, it's a damn good deal for a great basic little car with a kick ass warranty.

    I have 44,000 miles on my 2015 Mirage ES 5-speed. All it has needed is a set of tires, a set of front brake pads, and oil changes. My girlfriend has a '14 Mirage DE 5-speed, and over 42,000 miles she has only needed the same. I'd say I have averaged about 48 mpg over those 44k miles. I know three other people who have bought these cars (a '15 DE CVT, a '15 DE manual, and a '17 ES CVT), and they are all just as happy with them as we are. Problems with these cars are VERY few and far between. There is a reason the Mirage has such a great warranty...Mitsubishi knows you WON'T NEED IT! It's easy to warranty a car that simply doesn't break!

    The Mirage is definitively at home driving in the city. It's small and nimble. Has a tight turning radius. Soft suspension does a decent job with rough pavement. Out on the highway, it feels out of its element though. It can cruise at interstate speeds, but it feels loud, engine strained, and poor handling.

    It's not pretending to be anything else other than a budget friendly economy car with some surprisingly nice creature comforts. My Mirage is saving me a lot of money. Gas, insurance, no repair costs (great warranty). Mitsubishi is underrated. More people should give them a look. I wouldn't consider the Mirage without deep discounts though. I think the sticker price is crazy high. Much nicer subcompacts out there for similar money.

    @@stevensmith8648 It entirely depends on manufacturer discounts. It can affect purchase price immensely. I was looking to buy a new car in 2018. I wanted another Mirage to replace my 2014, but my local Mitsu dealers were asking near MSRP and the trim I wanted was going to be almost $18k. Way too much money! Hyundai was offering HUGE discounts. So I was able to step up to a much nicer Elantra for under $17k. It's actually turned out to be just as fuel-efficient as my 2014 Mirage with literally twice the power. Maintenance costs are lower too. It pays to shop around. I would have been a fool to buy the Mirage instead.

    It's ridiculous how people talk about an engine that isn't able to bolt out into traffic only to need gassing up a mile down the road because it gulps gas! I am so sick of these $50,000 to $80,000 cars bragging about the piddly 360 hp or whatever 600 hp who cares! You can't enjoy any of those hot rods anyway because as soon as you get on it Mr. War Pig is there to punish you with points and money removed from your wallet or purse! The Mirage brings back the good old days when people appreciated fine craftsmanship and frugality! Little engines are really cool and sound neat! I love them! If some people want and can purchase a tank to cruise the roads with , we'll let them! But I thank the engineers at Mitsubishi for designing such a great car that your average butt busting American can afford when we get paid at most one third of what we need per week to live working two jobs! The Mirage is a beautiful well built small car for us hard working underpaid citizens! Let the stingy elite drive their 4 ton tanks with evil smirks on their faces! I will smile back with a grin of joy from ear to ear because I am driving a car that rarely ever has to visit the gas pump, a car that rides well and has plenty of pep if you know how to drive, and a wonderful car for 20% of the purchase price of the vehicle they are driving and a car that practically will never have to make an appointment at the maintenance shop! Great car Mitsubishi! I love mine and there isn't another car I would rather drive!!

It is very reliable and cheap to operate yet comes with power equipment and a decent stereo on base model. And at least Mitsubishi was smart enough not to use touch screen slide for heat a/c like Honda did. Honda also has CVT but doesnt have drivers knee airbag like this Mitsubishi.

    mehftv maybe for some but a used car cant offer 10/100,000 miles warranty, apple car play, such great mpg, and with a used car you do not know how it was taken care of before you purchase it. Many people trade used cars due to an issue. I know first hand because we traded a 2010 Kia Soul that had 12,000 miles on it due to an issue with a clunking suspension they could not resolve so someone who purchased that would be stuck with the issue. I would much rather have my brand new loaded Mirage G4 SE and ai only paid $12,719.00 after rebates and sale price (window sticker $18,115.00).

    I have the hatchback, it is lighter. However, I do not find the engine underpowered at all. Normally, I never exceed 2,000 rpm in my CVT Mirage (not even when accelerating) and that is the way it should be driven. So the engine has LOTS in reserve if need be.The CVT finds the torque for you. I just cruise along NOT slower than other traffic. With that, I get an average fuel consumption of 52 mpg over 30K miles in a cold densely populated area. Why do car testers think we want to be racing drivers?

    I have a Mirage hatchback and I think this review is overly critical of its power level. As far as noise, the car itself isn't terribly noisy, it's the factory tires which generate a lot of noise, if you drive it on a variety of pavement surfaces you'll realize that. The review also doesn't mention they ride fairly well. Take this from someone who regularly drives much larger cars like a Grand Marquis and a Fusion. I actually think the Mirage is a much better driving experience than the Ford Focus.

But this underrated car gets blasted for being basic. The Spark LS is even more basic but it doesn't get as much hate as the Mirage.Because it has 98hp and a so called better ride?

The 2017 G4 has beefed up struts so the car doesn't bottom out like the 2014 Mirage. I can say that I enjoy my 2017 G4 SE Model. it is more than what I want for an inner city car. Much quieter than 2014 Mirage and it has great pick up to merge in the Houston traffic.

The gas mileage is AWESOME. However I do plan at a later time to get something a bit more spacious. I'm in LOVE with the Mitsubishi outlander. I can without a doubt say I will miss it when I do trade it in. I don't understand all the hate about this car tho. It's really a great car.

    no that wont ever happen! that is if you like your transmission intact after your first test drive with a said turbo; it would put out too much HP and smooch torque that it would eat the CVT or the manual within the first 5 miles of any sort of spirited driving you would put into it. But if you up graded the transmission along with the engine, maybe! However putting a turbo on this engine would be easy compared to upgrading the transmission, esp the CVT would be difficult! And of course the mileage would plummet as well.

    It seems two conflicting schools of thought went into this car. On the one hand it looks like something a grandma would drive. But the interior with all the high tech touchscreen radio it seems geared toward a crowd much younger than me.

    To be honest; I kinda like the Mitsubishi Mirage because it gives great fuel economy. It can be hard to choose between the Mitsubishi Mirage, Nissan Versa, Hyundai Accent and Kia Rio. These are just a few examples.

    Is this based on a Versa? It does look better but 17k is a lot for this even if it does have auto climate etc
