    WTF? Mirage $72,500 USD

    In Singapore

    Zero, 2014 ES Plus 5MT, written off but not forgotten.
    Zero II, 2014 SE, 5MT, climate She's HOME now!
    Shelby AKA "Cute", 2017 ES 5MT, A/C.

    Mirage owners look at the world differently than everyone else, but in a better way
    We're driving the Beetle of the 21st century, the greatest small car now available!

    I wonder what currency it is. Singapore dollar is close to USD. Some places you buy the car and insurance at the same time , maybe that's part of it?

    I remember reading awhile back that owning a car in Singapore is crazy expensive. Here's one link on it: https://blog.moneysmart.sg/transport...-in-singapore/

    Wow. So they're essentially paying about 900% more of the actual cost

    I'm looking around for prices of the Mirage in different markets. I think in Thailand it was about £17,000. That surprised me, I didn't realize the wages there were high enough to afford that.

    If anyone knows the price of Mirages in foreign, especially SEA locations please post them.
