My fav posts are your fleet updates. There's not a better source of data on CVT Mirage reliability any where on the web better than this.
Press release from Mitsu USA:
Thread: 2014 Mirage with 414,520 miles / 667,105 kilometers @ White Bear Mitsubishi, MN, USA
Attachment 20120
Passed 150,000 kms (93k miles) today.
Honestly, I would have preferred to keep the odo below this number just because it looks better in the ad if/when I go to sell it next year.
But I would have had to seriously ration my driving this year to accomplish that. Not worth the hassle. I love driving this thing.
I also got the full width fuel gauge thing to start flashing today with zero bars/segments showing. I think that's a first for me? I forget how far I pushed Mirage #1 to see how much fuel it would take afterward as an experiment. (Will update the appropriate thread.)
So close to my own Mirage's odometer that sits @143,000 km's and change. Always gets me 5.5 L / 100 km's on the dash fuel economy reader, so great overall and my Mirage has done its job getting me cash money in my pocket year in and out instead of on gas.
Some cold winter days only 5.9 max, and summer months 4.2 L / 100 km's is the max economy number I've seen.
Hmmm... Low-mile cream-puff...

I'd have to change a lot more than the cluster to pull that one off. :D
At 70745km since September 2020. I originally bought and it had 64537km in it.
I have our highest mileage car in the shop for an oil change. It hasn't been used much lately but it always starts. It's at 470600km's/292400miles. For the first time, we have a leaking rear shock. Everything looks relatively good'n tight. Even the original swaybar end link bushings are still intact.
The second highest in the fleet is up to 390,000kms (242,000miles). The cvt is still hanging in there.
