    HBD.

    Don't know how you're paying for the forum, but let us know if you need help. So much info saved up in here that can't go to waste.

    Sad because back in the day, we had a corolla forum that went south. Now all the info on there is lost (to me at least).

    As of this year, ads are covering software licences & hosting costs, and that should improve as the forum matures. But voluntary "paid memberships" are something we could look at, because every little bit helps. In exchange for support, we could hide ads, send some decals, and put a "star" on those members' accounts.

    With more revenue, we could also spend more time researching the aftermarket, developing parts (eg. Tim is looking at 3d printing a part that some members will be interested in), etc.

    We would *never* pull the plug like your Corolla forum did. (I'm of the opinion that no link should ever die!) The 6th gen Mirage community will be growing for years and years to come.

    I don't mind the ads. (see:ad blocker)
    Sending decals would cost money, so if you do 'donations appreciations,' try to do it software related.

    I think everyone just matured/got busy and the information is still probably on someone's PC.

    I decided to buy my Mirage back in 2013 after following this forum for 6 months looking for bad reviews.
    I still love driving my pink mobile and it continues to give me a safe and comfortable drive.
    I't's summer here in Australia so the air con is working well. I still get 5 litres per 100km.
    Thankyou for this wonderful forum.

    THANK YOU for posting this link!! I have been trying to find specs for the engine in a buddy's old car and I could not figure out how to do that since he has since deleted his website. I knew he had a pretty extreme camshaft in his V6, but I didn't realize it had more than 0.6" of lift!

    Mirage Forum is among my favorite places & it had much to do with my Mirage 2014 purchase. It's great to see how owners use, adapt, consider their cars. Thank you much.
