It was so devastating to read about the discontinuation though. Why, market? Why do so relatively few people want these wonderful little super-efficient cars?

Real estate values have been 'effed in Canada for quite some time now and only getting worse. Kinda of makes me want to emigrate at times.
Singed up and delivered some groceries for Instacart. Not the greatest car for such a task but still the fuel milage is so much more easy to handle than using a larger gas guzzler that can fit more...
When the Mirage goes, I commit seppuku.
I guess that I better become a master of working on my 2014, because I am in no position to buy a new one right now.
I just gotta say, after the utter torture that is changing the plugs and coils in my van, the Mirage is like a breath of fresh air. Not quite as easy as a Corola, but still, pretty darned easy. I...
The old girl continues to make me happy.
This is for an approximately 120 km trip from Manning Park, British Columbia to Chilliwack, British Columbia.
It included driving over a pass but overall...
My Old Girl is getting pretty beat up these days. Would I get another Mirage? Definitely.
That's crazy. That's close to what I paid for my brand new, but one year-old, SE back in Feb of 2015. Add in the CAD - US exchange rate and it might be more!
Oh yes, road noise will also now be your friend. But once you break that baby in and learn her ways, your mileage will put a smile on your face.
I agree with you because I like stick, but I remember when I bought mine, all of the high end trims with stick were still unsold (a model year later).
It's a cash grab. If they really cared about reducing emissions they would legislate other laws, in addition to taxing.
Nobody knows where the money collected from the tax goes either.
Fun fact:...
Don't get me started on the "carbon tax". Not a fan, to put it briefly.

It's about time! My little car is now about 5 years old and just gave me 50mpg cruising around yesterday. 1 day's-worth of driving in my F250 eats about as much gas as two weeks of driving the Mirage.
done.
I hope they don't end up pulling it from our market. I guess that if they do, I will finally go electric. I have a work truck but as far as cars go, I never want to go back to something that burns...
the guy is clueless about real world mileage. My brother drives a Fit and I used to own two of them. There is absolutely not a "3 mpg difference" between them, although the Fit can get decent highway...
... Was just doing a little Google Earthing of the beautiful South Pacific Islands of Okinawa, Japan and lo and behold....

that's how I feel about non-handicapped who park in the handicapped zone. many times boogers on their door handles fresh from my nose.
... since buying my Mirage (beginning of 2015), I saw for the first time today a man driving a Mirage. Of all the probably dozens of Mirages that I have seen on the road, I have until now never seen...
i'd like one, when I one day move to a more sunny place and can set up a solar charging station.
lol, who would do that?!
nice mileage 3DPlane!
i'll always love manual, but my CVT is comfortable to drive. like the OP, I am stuck in stop and go Vancouver traffic all of the time (extremely poor road planning in our...
that's one way of looking at it. it could also be that they anticipated the most likely reaction of a significant number of viewers (criticizing doesn't automatically make one a troll or a hater)....
I laughed. I cried. it was an emotional roller coaster.
