Ok, I wasn't going to let this info out but as i see this thread isnt going to rest i am going to release some undisclosed information that I discovered as to the real reason the Mirage gets better fuel numbers than nearly anything else on the road.
I know everyone has looked at the design and the transmission and the weight of the car and the LRR tires. All of that would lead you to believe it is the cause of such great fuel economy. Well, I can say that although it probably helped, maybe, atleast a little bit. But the truth is all of those things that are talked and written about are just Distractions to keep you away from the real cause of the Amazing MPG numbers. No other car company can compete with our little Mirage because Mitsubishi knows how to hide the greatest fuel efficiency secret of all time right there in plain sight, under the worlds nose.
Heck even most of the Dealers and mechanics don't know about this. I thought if i post it on the site then enough people would know about it that it wouldn't be putting my life in jeopardy by being the only one who knows.
The car has helium in the paint. it has great stiff suspention that only feels light because of that helium.
