Monthly payment is $93 for 72 months with $5,700 being the total financed. It was built September 2019, and had spent at least part of its non operational life at a dealership in Georgia; and at then at this Clarksville, TN dealership for more than 100 days. So far, so good, but it's far more crude than I noticed in the test drive...I mean, we noticed the loudness of the engine, but the transmission and clutch noises are almost comically loud and whiny and clunky.
Anyway, the 44 mpg shown on the display after the 130 mile trip home at 66 mph in snow showers amd high wind makes up for all of that lack of refinement.
Congratulations on your new Mirage. Looking forward to seeing some pictures.
