    Hello From Vancouver Canada!!

    Hello all! I just took delivery of my brand new 2014 Mirage yesterday and I am so excited to get the most from my economic ride. The mirage brings back memories of the firefly I used to own and getting stellar fuel economy gets me rolling. My mirage replaces my 78 Honda civic as my daily driver

    Woohoo! First Canadian Mirage owner on the forum. Congrats!

    Did you get the 5-speed or CVT?

    I actually still have a Firefly -- a 1998 1.0L, 5-speed. The Mirage is the first new car to come along since I've owned the Firefly that qualifies as a potential replacement.

    I hope you'll make a garage entry for your car and consider posting your thoughts about the Mirage in our Owner Review section.

    And... welcome to the forum.

    I love it so much! I got the CVT SE fully loaded with the "convenience package". I used to own a 1998 Pontiac firefly 5 speed as well and I knew this was the car for me! I will get some pics up when I can, thanks for the welcome to the forum.

    Where did you buy it?

    I was in Vancouver for a good chunk of last winter when we decided to start up this forum, but I don't remember there being a dealer in the city. I actually went looking for one in town.

    From what I gathered the car has not been in Canada for very long. There are about 5-6 Mitsu dealers within an hour of my home. I bought mine from Tri cities Mitsubishi in Port Coqulitlam.

    Welcome to the site. I'm glad to see our first Canadian owner on the forum. Me and Darin (MetroMPG) have been wondering when we would see our first.
    Custom Mirage products: Cruise control kit, Glove box light, MAF sensor housing, Rear sway bar, Upper grill block

    Current project: DIY Nitrous oxide setup for ~$100

    You're right - it's only been here since late September. See: First 2014 Mirages have arrived in Canada - available Sept 24th

    Your car didn't have far to go from the dock over to PoCo... Here's where it rolled off the ship: http://goo.gl/maps/1efl4

    Looking forward to hearing more about the car from you.

    Wow it was just good timing then, until last week I had never heard of the Mirage, I have been looking at sub compacts for awhile and been very disappointed. This is the only subcompact I test drove and the only one I would ever buy.

    I love to tinker and I try to keep my cars maintained at home so I should be able to contribute lots to the forum.

    Pictures will come shortly... It is dark when I leave for work and when I return, so no photo ops yet.
