    I accidentally read that as "Don't forget a new grape entry with some pictures".

    Did I mention it's very, very purple?

    People who might be asking how much you can put in a Mirage G4 trunk? Well, the answer is...

    ...About this much.



    I'm 235 pounds, 5'11" tall. That's 102 kg, 180 cm for those who live in places with rational units.

    I was considering a G4 when buying my first Mirage and they had a higher rebate at the time, but settled with the hatchback. I would keep your better springs and swap them into the sedan (if they are the same) if you will be hauling a lot of weight.

    Yes to all that. I had the same impressions driving a 2015 hatch vs. a 2017 G4 back-to-back: Better handling, steering, sound & vibration insulation.

    Congrats on the new car! Glad you're sticking around.

    PS: the one I drove was red too... but didn't look purple. Maybe they do 2 different "reds"?

    There are two different "reds". There is "Infrared*, which is the red shown on your link. And there is "Wine Red", which is a dark purple with a slight reddish hue.
