* Prices not applicable in Quebec. $12,498 purchase price applies to 2014 Mirage ES. Freight (up to $1,350), $250 in PDI, $100 in air charge, new tire duties, taxes and other government and dealer fees not included. Dealers may sell for less.

** Place a deposit of $500 or more between August 19, 2013 and September 3, 2013 and take delivery by January 2, 2014, and receive a $500 rebate toward the purchase of the 2014 Mirage. $500 will be deducted after taxes.

The price "advantage" in Canada vs. the US seems to be erased by the higher freight costs here.

Also interesting that the prices aren't applicable in Quebec. I have read that Mitsu expects to do more sales in that province than any other. Canadians like small cars in general, but Quebecers love them the most. I wonder what's up with that. Maybe a regulatory advertising issue.
