    OEM 5 Speed Leather gear knob

    Did any of the manual mirages come with a leather gear/shift knob that can be installed on a 2021?

    I think I've seen one but not sure if it came on the mirage or an Evo x.

    Since 2018, only the base level ES trim level comes standard with a 5-speed manual transmission. The ES does not come with a leather shift knob. Shift knobs screw off and can be replaced with something else. I'm sure someone has done it on the forum.

    If owning a 5-speed manual is your top priority, your Mirage shopping just got easier (one trim level).

    I would test drive a Mirage asap. Otherwise, you "have the cart before the horse" in my opinion.

    There are literally no Mirages at dealers in Hawaii.

    That would be an obstacle!

    Sorry, I missed that point apparently.

    Yes, the 2014 and 2015 ES models and 2017 SE models would have the leather shift knob.

    It is part number 2470A033XA, and can be purchased new online from a Mitsubishi parts seller for about $125.

    The SE manual was a one year (2017) wonder!

    Cobrajet's list would include the other options.

    Yeah thats the unicorn I purchased. Over paid but the 2017 is the best manual mirage we'll ever get so I thought it was worthwhile.

    Not to change the subject but I just learned that are separate part numbers indicating the leather knobs.

    1) 2470A033XA from 14-15 Mirage ES

    2) 2470A057XA from 17 Mirage SE

    And #2 is much cheaper than #1. #2 has more appeals I supposed? If only I could see clear pictures.

    That's a lot of shekels! I'll take my molded thermoplastic. To be honest, the cheapie-cheap interior parts gather no complaints from me.
