Yep. I test drove a 2014 Mirage and got a 2015 model some weeks later. The 2015 model is noticably quieter.

in one of the mirages that i drove, the glove box rattled and it turned out that it was the usb plug bouncing up and down against the plastic. i moved the plug to a different spot and the rattle stopped. not sure if the one you had was for the same reason... but just putting it out there...
i have driven both years myself and generally agree with your observations. the 2015 seemed a little more quiet and i also noticed the 2015 CVT revved a little higher. i also agree on your observation about cruise control, although i suspect that a driver of a CVT without one eventually learns the ways of his/her car. i'm glad i have CC though...
one difference for me though. they all idled about the same level of smoothness for me (in neutral), even though the new ones have the different engine mount.
