Autoblog piece on Canadian Mirage premiere (mostly negative comments)

Autoblog (USA): Mitsubishi Mirage bows in Montreal without a name, Canadian sales promised

There's nothing new in the article itself. It regurgitates the main points Mitsu provided at the Canadian debut.

It's the comments where things are interesting - currently 55 posted. They're running about 2 to 1 negative to positive by my own count (not counting "indifferent" comments).

The negativity is overwhelmingly about the styling, followed by questions about the overall viability of the company in the US market.

Meh, unless its a sports car with tons of horsepower AB readers comment the same. They seem to have no realization that most people just want a car that can get you around frugally without the need for tire burning action. For that actual purpose the Mirage has a good chance of being a big hit.
