so far I haven't seen a single Space Star on the road here
That makes two of us!
Speaking of not seeing Mirage/Space Stars: I spent December/January on Canada's west coast (Vancouver), and just discovered recently that there was a new Mirage in the city while I was there (it was on display for a Mitsu dealers' conference). If I'd known that then, I would have gone to have a peek. It was probably a 20 minute bike ride from where I was staying.
