That's crazy. That's close to what I paid for my brand new, but one year-old, SE back in Feb of 2015. Add in the CAD - US exchange rate and it might be more!
2014 White SE with CVT
Fummins (04-20-2021)
6790 Mirages sold vs. 3807 in Q2 last year.
Compares to ...
Mitsu says this is the best first half of the year for the current Mirage:

- Despite predictions that consumers have turned away from passenger cars, Mirage's first-half 2021 performance is the strongest first-half for the nameplate since 2001.

I do find it rather ironic & satisfying at the same time that so many other cars have disappeared from the market while the Mirage has remained.
I think it's wise to keep an entry level car in a company's line up. They may not make you as much money up front, but many first time car buyers have many, many years of car shopping ahead of them.
An affordable, reliable, & economical car should be praised not ridiculed by car critics. The Mirage is filling a niche that other companies are choosing to ignore. In all honesty, the Chevy Spark is really the only true competitor left.

vs. 7755 Sparks in the US.
That's the closest in a while, no?
In Canada, the Spark decimated Mirage sales @ 1695 to 303.

The Mirage is doing quite well considering this small fact below -
The company manufactures and sells Mitsubishi brand cars and sport utility vehicles through a network of approximately 440 dealers in Canada (90) and the United States (350).
There are 2,920 Chevrolet locations in the United States as of May 20, 2021.
Doing some simple math -
7,755/2,920 = 2.66 Sparks sold/dealership
6790/350 = 19.4 Mirages sold/dealership
I'm sure White Bear is much higher than 19 Mirages sold, and some Mitsubishi dealerships are much lower.
The average Chevy dealership isn't making much money off of Spark sales.
Mirage does quite well considering it has 12% (350/2920) the number of dealerships compared to the Spark.
