Well, after hearing your review, I would love to put in some corrections, the vehicle also comes in a 5 speed manual, that is significantly quicker, the USB is in the glovebox, it does have Bluetooth audio, press the little phone button by the mirror control. Yes the vehicle has road noise, however having bought mine new in 2015, and put on over 150k miles, it still is a safe dependable vehicle, that as long as you get the manual transmission is also rather quick and responsive and will do every bit of the speedometer. The optimal performance range in the vehicle is between 4 and 6k rpms, and at that range I am smoking cars with significantly higher horsepower due to the power to weight ratio.

Looks a lot like my old 2007 Yaris 2dr liftback. Sounds a lot like it too. Except. I had a 1. 5l 4 cylinder, OOOOHHHHH YEAAAAHHHHBut seriously, lacking the cruise control in a car you have to floor regularly on hilly climbs is not great. One of the best things about these cars is how easy they are to maintain. I could literally reach right under the front end and touch the oil filter. It wasn't the coolest or most comfortable car but it ran well.

I like this reviewer a lot Unlike many reviewers he says the truth and whatever pops into his head. Most car reviewers iv'e seen are either too nice or too critical to the vehicle their driving and this one felt very refreshing to watch. I'm a student looking to buy my first car and this helped a lot. If anyone has any tips on any good reliable cars for students I'll be glad to hear what you think (i mostly need it for short daily drives)

I have a 2019 with 4000 miles. 5 year unlimited miles roadside assistance. Power train warranty is 10 years 100000 miles. The car has it's faults but for the options and the room it has eventhough it's a subcompact I really cant complain. The dealer I purchased from had some for under 13, 000. I have cruise control. For about 40 I installed my own center console. Looking foward to see what Mitsubishi does with the next generation.

Unsure if this is the video Doug brags about the Mitsubishi MOTORS branding? But then Mitsubishi is an industry giant, so there are other brand such as Mitsubishi Electric and more. There is nothing special about Mitsubishi MOTORS. Anyway this looks like an affordable car, which would be deemed luxury in quite some parts of the world. Power-windows, -mirrors and even automatic climate control, what else would you need?

Honestly I believe you are baisd. You are trying hard to make every single thing as a big problem. come on. It's a budget car Why your are comparing it quality and features wise against totally different class of cars? Compare it Chevy Spark or Nissan Micra that what I call fare comparison. This car made to be cheap to buy, extremely good in fuel and practical. Mirage ticks all these points perfectly

i have a 2007 mitsubishi with 155, 000 km. still has the original engine and transmission. still runs good. what's important i have a car that brings me from point A to B without the headaches of high maintenance. if people are happy with it and find it within the range of their budget, then why not own it. it's not what people say, it's how you manage your life and feel contented and happy.

The stick is better for speed, and if you can actually drive between 55 and 45 you will get 51+ mpg regularly. I drive between 30-65(a few 30 speed zones) to work and back and average 40-44 mpg mostly highway with a few traffic lights. 75-90 on a 4 lane highway it does drop to 34-38 mpg. but if you follow a semi about 5 cars back, which they don't like, you'll get around 47 mpg. lol

The Mirage actually seems like a really good car to own, if you want something basic or for a first car. I drive a Suzuki Alto 2014 and it only has 68bhp and its perfectly fine, its my first car and it just drives. Who needs all this unnecessary crap just to drive? Having things like cruise control and autonomous driving just makes all the money you spent on driving lessons a waste

The battery weighs it down You see how HUGE the battery is compare to everything else under that hood? It is bigger than the engine block The Honda Fit's battery is 1/3 the size. just slightly bigger then my garage door opener back up battery. Kidding aside, I started to watch your videos and I like it Great fun hearing how you point out the good the bad and the fugly.
