Thread: You know you're a Mirage owner/driver when...

  1. #61
    YKYAMO when you borrow a friend's car and it feels like it has the turning radius of a battleship. (Chevy Equinox).

    What would have been a simple tight turn to reverse into a parking spot with the Mirage was a 2-attempt maneuver in the Equinox.

    YKYAMO when you're in your larger vehicle and have to pass up multiple spots due to them being to small and you're talking under your breath "could've fit in that one, that one too" if you had your mirage lol

    You go to trade in your Mirage for another car and the salesmann firstly looks confused and then belts into uncontrollable laughter.

    You traded in your Mirage, itschad? I don't blame anyone who trades in their Mirage for a more comfortable car. I am looking into Hyundai Venue, andused BMW 3 series and 5 series AWDs.

    More comfortable!? The Mirage is the Cadillac of little cars!

    (At least it has the suspension of a 70's Cadillac.)

    The Cadillac of little cars is true, but still a little car. That is what the guy on Motorweek TV says about the Mirage in their review. John's review on TV was very positive.

    I owned a 1985 VW Rabbit, and that's a small car too, and the ride and handling was really good, just like my Mirage (but in an 80s way, no power steering).

    The weather was real bad last night driving home, and my Mirage handles so well for the situation. Snow blowing snow from the fields... I will give Mitsubishi credit that they make a good-handling car.

    No D, not traded in.............yet but I'm assured the dealer wants to buy a trade in at stupid prices.
    I keep looking at a Vauxhall Corsa.

    I was considering trading in my Mirage myself, but realize I have a good thing going with my Mirage, even if the car isn't a Cadillac.

    Vauxhall eh? English General Motors I believe. The Vauxhall Corsa actually reminds me of the last Chevy Cruise they ever made. The 2017 style Cruises. Only a little bit like a GM though, I am liking the interior.

    Further evidence that in Canada, we don't get hardly any of the subcompacts made around the world. The new Datsun is another one.
