Maybe the 1.0 engined Mirages, not the 1.2s, were the ones that could take different forms of 92 octane style fuel, like they recommend in my owner's manual. I only got the French copy handy in the house here, but I think my Mirage is good to drive all the way through Mexico and farther for sure because I know a guy who drives a Canadian motorcycle around the Americas. I'm no expert in this field. I have been to Mexico once and travelled around a bit, and the Sentra taxis are identical to my Mom's old Nissan Sentra, which I loved.
But I was behind a 2005 or so Altima the other day, and the "Altima 2.5 S" sticker was not on straight. So I am not sure about Nissan's quality to Mitsubishi's, even though plastic parts fall off my Mirage's interior randomly.
I think Steve got almost 500,000 km's (in miles) on his Mirage, so that is amazing stuff. Hope the same for mine at 138k.
