Howdy. Say it isn’t so

Exactly 2 years ago today I posted THIS. If I had known that the world was going to go sideways (and that manuals were going away), I would have bought one and just pushed it to the back of the garage until I needed it.

Those 2021 Mirage ES manuals for $10,999 (even less if you qualified for the rebates) @ White Bear in early 2021 never looked so good! You were the first to share that deal with all of us, too!

My guess is a few forum members would jump all over that deal today!

I hope my 2017 Mirage ES manual goes another 10+ years for me. By that time, I may want to simplify my life, and go back to owning just one vehicle that can still tow a small trailer. For now, I am very content with what I have. I think it's a sign that I am getting old!

I managed to find Sapphire blue 5 MT , Red, Black and Grey. No mention of white.

Weird, do a build and price for a 2023 and you only get titanium grey or for $450 you can have white. It looks like they offer loyalty and other incentives too, gotta dig for those.https://www.mitsubishi-motors.ca/en/...ntpa&year=2023

Yeah, I thought your color choices were very limited for the base model. Most manuals I look at are listed wrong. They don't have a clutch pedal when you look at the pics!

I should have a good million or more miles towing experience with a Mirage by then. Lol.

Sad but true. Since I am 59 years old & have never bought an automatic vehicle, you can probably guess how I feel? The huge discounts from your Mirage SE manual days are long gone, too.

From my perspective the Mirage has been discontinued in 2023, because I would only consider a manual version of it.

Nice to see you on the forum Pryme!

Still loving that Corolla?

Yeah I wish I at least had one of the mirages still now that the manual is gone.

The Corolla has 15k miles now and has been fantastic.

I also picked up a new pickup. Get a bit less mileage than the Corolla and certainly the mirage though ha

Same here, I can only build a white but I can go and buy my choice of color.

When I try to build a Mirage in Canada, I see two color choices for your ES manual (titanium gray & white diamond for $450 extra).

Your ES CVT has 6 color choices.

Your SE CVT & GT CVT has 8 color choices.

Have you found an actual pic of a 2023 ES manual in any color other than Titanium Gray or White Diamond?

I have found that you can go by listings when it comes to manuals. My guess is the transmission defaults to manual & those listing the cars forget to change it or don't even know what a manual is.
