Cheap used Mirages you've seen for sale?

Unfortunately you can't smell burnt cvt fluid easily. If it's black and/or want to stall when coming to a stop look forward to replacing the cvt. I still have one on the bench I gotta order a new input shaft and see if it'll work again.

For $12-1400 I'd buy it in a minute, I'm sure there's enough reasonably price CVTs in local junkyards to get it back on the road and ready for another couple hundred thousand KMs. I suspect if this Mirage gets down below $2k somebody will snap it up even if the CVT is questionable. Haha. It might be me after all.

Houston, we have a hoarder!

(I'm one to talk... I still have 3.5 Metro/clones laying around.)

When I look at my Mirage (my '14) not only do I see the great little daily driver that it is, I also see it with no interior, a full cage, down to around 13-1500lbs, up around 200+ hp and racing in a really popular league because others have seen the same thing when looking at their Mirages.

I also see a highly customized car with an audio system easily hitting 130db + . Or a mini camper with the rear seat gone and a pop out tent attached to the back. I think the surface has only been scratched so far with our little wundercars.

I'm becoming a bit concerned. Can a person become a Mirage addict?

It's nice to hear others loving their Mirages!!!!

Not necessarily "cheap" but the exact car I would want to replace my beloved Basic... '15 ES Manual in black... Good miles, looks fairly clean, needs tires BAD

On the other side of the country... BUT, I have to go out to Cali for work in a few weeks anyway... sooooo epic road trip??? LOL

Here is the Monroney sticker for it when it was new. Looks like it was delivered with the optional cargo package and wheel locks.

I don't want to jinx it by posting, but I am going to try and go look at a super cheap Mirage I found tomorrow. It's a cvt which I don't prefer, but it is so cheap I don't think I can pass on it... fingers crossed...

good luck, these things are like potato chips.

you can't have just one.

BTW: The black on black 2014 SE CVT for $2995 sold, quickly, to my surprise. Perhaps it was spotless and sounded great. Here's hoping the buyer finds the forums and joins up.

Well I am officially back in the Mirage world ladies and germs.
2015 DE CVT with 70k miles for the princely sum of $2750.

She’s had a hard knock life and certainly has her share of bruises but her heart seems good.
I’ll post pics when I can.
