Car is still alive and well. A year ago, a few AC bits were replaced when the compressor clutch disintegrated while driving.
Early this year, the transmission started having problems shifting to first. The transmission was pulled apart and found bits and pieces of what may have been first and/or second. A low-mileage transmission was found and installed along with new clutch assembly.
I'm scared to look, but I have a feeling there may be a hole in the exhaust.
The 90k mile maintenance list is extensive. I'll be chopping off at the list at stuff I can do myself - which is really most of it. Does anyone have experience with the mirage's valves?
These photos were taken today and last Sunday.
Those rims look really good. I think that style of rim looks the best on Mirages. Looks better even more than a 5 spoke, or a 7 spoke alloy, like they had on older Mirages. I'm gonna get my rims put on my Mirage soon, paid very little and got a lot, only problem is some areas of Toronto are sketchy. Big time savings though.
