The 2018 model in black/yellow (orange?) looks really good. Now I'm tempted... lol
Back on topic, really would be interested in this if it ever came to the states, maybe after I pay off the Mirage. Could probably park both in my carport, though I'd have to find somewhere else for my bike. lol
I have 11 months left on payments for my Mirage, then the car will owe me nothing. Besides half my console being dim at night now, and the engine light being on, my Mirage should last another 200,000 km's if I maintain it right and keep it rust proofed every year with Krown.
I would rather put the money into some savings or a cheap old car, rather than another new vehicle. I was thinking of the 2020 Hyundai Venue in 6 speed manual, but everything is up in the air with my life and plans right now. My Mirage has a few issues but I don't see much wrong with it at all, and any car I drive won't stop blinding snow squalls and that right.. .and the Mirage does good in winter driving.
One vehicle I am considering is a late model 2004 BMW x3 SUV, I wish they were not all leather ones though.
