    This is the first Orange Line package I've seen on a Mirage. The rear spoiler is supposed to be larger and includes the additional trim pieces.

    First one I have seen as well. Saw the option on the website. It's cool! I wonder what base colors it is offered with. Just white? Black and white? Black, white, silver?

    It's more than a little underwhelming.
    You could walk into any auto vinyl shop with $100.00 and come out with a better version.
    Will weld for beer.

    The orange bits on the interior look tacky. (yes, I'm old) And the post above is correct. You could get much the same effect, or better, for a very small investment in orange vinyl. That said, I'm kinda surprised at how MUCH of an effect they got with such subtle little changes.

    I'm generally not a "stripe guy", but it works.

    For the record, I think the chrome that they tacked onto the car in 2017 looks cheesy, too. But, that's not just Mitsubishi, that seems to be an automaker trend... along with making grill badge absurdly large.
    Simplify and add lightness.

    I own a 2017 Mirage, & I have to agree. The chrome is overdone. Then again, I am not a big fan of chrome in the first place. I sort of like the top half of the front end, but the bottom portion seems overdone to me. It's a trend with a lot of vehicles today, however. It's like they are trying to hard.

    The chrome is not a deal breaker, but I prefer the fronts of the 2014-15 Mirages.

    Different strokes for different folks. I think the 17 plus front is worlds better than the old one with that tiny mail slot grill opening.

    Wow - looks like Mitsubishi is really stretching out the options with the Mirage.

    I wonder what's next...?

    1.8 liters with 150 hp? And rear fenders that can fit more than 185 without rubbing? And a suspension that can handle all of that without feeling like it's going to tip over?
