    Red face New Owner

    Hello all,
    Just picked up a new 2019 Mirage ES 5spd. So far i'm pretty happy with the car. 750 miles so far and avg 45mpg. whoohoo!! Drove it from Eastern Wa. over Snoqualmie pass to Seattle and she held 75-80 the whole way. my old ford Aspire even when it was new couldn't even try to keep up. anyway... Just wanted to chime in and say hi.

    So, what made you decide on a Mirage?

    MPG! and Price. I thought about a hybrid but couldn't justify the cost and I've seen too many hybrids running around here with their batteries shot. So far its a fun little car. Hope to Tint the windows soon and get some nice wheels for it. The Hub Caps are a little too much....

    Did you get your Mirage from Leskovar Mitsubishi in Tri-Cities? Hard to beat their prices. If you did, tell us how your purchase went.
