Once you buy and live with the Mirage you start to appreciate the Mirage for what it offers for the price. Of course people prefer the suspension to be a tad bit stiffer. Not a problem when you install AirLift kit or put on aftermarket suspension. The newer Mirage have much better suspension compared to the 2014-15. With coilovers and a rear strut bar, I can't compare to any car I have ever driven that corners like my little blue Mirage.
@failsatheals The road noise isn't a problem depending on the tires. My Goodyear UltraGrip Winter tires are a lot less noisy than my Hankook all season touring tires. Just need to have the music loud enough or open the window to hear the wind. The stock tires didn't have too much road noise, stock was less noisy than my Hankooks.
