I picked up my cvt mirage Feb 28 in Thunder Bay ON CA.
while not in the coldest part of winter it was still cold with several nights around -30°C. I would go out and start my car then come back inside to put my workboots on then off to work. One thing that amazed me with this car is how fast it makes heat. With a 3 or 4 min warmup I had useable cabin heat a couple hundred yards down the road for defrost and cabin comfort. This heat comes on even quicker if car is plugged in. (Yes, I have a block heater. Part# is in the block heater thread) Anyway... I run the car at no more than 2000 Rpm for the first couple hundred yards till temp light goes out then it's business as usual.
Trans works flawlessly.
Will weld for beer.
