Dear fellow Mirage heads,
Greetings from hot and humid Singapore!
My name is Alvin Kiang. My family just got a Space Star 1.2 CVT.
It came with factory installed Thai-made Yokohama BluEarth AE01 tyres. I love these tyres. The orange oil in them make the tread soft and very grippy without sacrificing tread life or fuel economy. I have used BluEarth in the past with good results.
The Space Star is decent in every way but fantastic in no ways. For the price, it is indeed a sheer pleasure to drive. The relative feather weight of this car and the torque converter in the CVT transmission makes it very peppy around town.
I'm keeping the revs to less than 4000 rpm during the break-in period and will soon bring it for a third-party rear alignment check at Autobacs (supermarket for car consumers).
