Review 4 of 72

Price Paid:  $0.00 from Gift

Year / Model Reviewed:
1998 Mirage

Summary:
I've had this car since i was 15 I am 19 now. to begin with its an automatic and I have abused the mess out of it. I've cut doughnuts on dirt roads.. slid into curves on dirtroads going65 mph etc.. drove 105mph on many occasions for long periods of time. Even been mud bogging with it. This car has no passing power, but i've added some window tint and a system and I enjoy the mess out of this little car. It is an extremely cheap car, but so far I have not been able to break it I'VE TRIED! so I could get a new car.. the only thing i've ever spent on repairs is for new struts ! $250

Strengths:
Durable. Undestructable

Weaknesses:
Slow from 0-30.. after that its quick until 85+

Review 5 of 72

Price Paid:  $1951.00 from Duffy's used sleds

Year / Model Reviewed:
1993 Mirage ES 4 door

Summary:
My son and I bought this car in Oct. 2003 when it had almost 67,000 miles. It has the 1.8 engine coupled to the five speed manual transmission. The A/C and cruise control continue to work. My son installed more capable speakers. In the 19,000 miles we have owned it, the Mirage has been a performer. It has some acceleration capabilities, is fun to drive, and obtains excellent gas mileage. We replaced the radiator, the thermo switch on the radiator,the radiator hoses, and the water pump. It is reasonably comfortable although I wish that it sat a little higher off the ground (13 inch tires). It performs well on the freeway up to about 75 mph which is as fast as I have gone in it. My son bought an instrument panel with a tachometer from someone on the Mirage forum. It was an easy switch. The tach is a nice addition. Since my son graduated from high school, found a real job, and purchased a 2003 Mazda Protege 5 with 12,600 miles, I have inherited the Mirage as a commuter vehicle. My other two kids are learning to drive it because it has a clutch. If the Mirage survives 3 teenage drivers, I must give the car a lot of credit. In sum, Mitsubishi makes fine cars such as the Mirage which usually fall just behind the Corolla and Civic in the car journal articles. It is much cheaper than those two which is appealing.

Strengths:
Its repair needs as an inexpensive, 10 year old car with unknown previous owners have been relatively modest. Great gas mileage. I am not driving my large GMC van very much in favor of the gas frugal Mirage. It could go much longer than I plan on driving it. The transmission is fun to shift with the eager 1.8 L. engine although my older son may have had too much fun driving it.

Weaknesses:
Before the radiator and water pump change out, it overheated occasionally. That is no longer an issue. The oil filter is hidden from easy access. In sum, no real weaknesses.
