Mitsubishi Mirage 2 year ownership review and Q&A
มุมมอง 12K10 หลายเดือนก่อน
Personal experience and review of my 2022 Mitsubishi Mirage ES after 2 years of ownership in Canada's capital (Ottawa, Ontario) Purchased in November 2021 from Rallye Mitsubishi in Gatineau QC. I compiled a list of questions asked in my previous videos, and answered them to the best of my ability. This car jas been a joy to own and drive. I'm at a stage in my life where going fast isn't importa...
Mitsubishi Mirage seasonal tire change, fall 2023
มุมมอง 556ปีที่แล้ว
Doing it myself because I'm still able to. My knees are starting to hurt though, hence the knee pads. The summer tires coming off are 185/55-15 on aftermarket rim from DAI. Winter tires are 175/65-14 on the stock steel rims with wheel covers. Music by @razzybash5123

Mitsubishi Mirage cold weather performance

Super cold today with the polar vortex passing through Ottawa, the climate control had no trouble at all keeping me nice and warm. Outside the car, with the wind, the temp dipped to -40 degrees C!
2022 Mitsubishi Mirage ES 5sp - one year later in Canada
มุมมอง 12K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Bought brand new in November 2021 from Rallye Mitsubishi in Gatineau. Cross shopped the Chevy Spark, Nissan Micra, and KIA Rio. I chose the Mirage because I wanted something different that was still offered new, with a low total cost of ownership. I've traveled a little over 21000kms in that time, and averaged 5.9L/100kms. Replaced the 14" OEM tires with 175/65 winters. I bought a set of 15" li...
Removing 4 year old Plastidip
มุมมอง 702 ปีที่แล้ว
This job was done properly, with lots of coats as directed by Fonzie. Black base (4 cans), and a chameleon pearl top coat. Sprayed in 2018, and I could probably still leave it on for another year or 2, but it's time for a new colour.

So, when do you do your oil changes? I read 7000 miles which I personally would never do that late ever.
@@dzmelinux7769 thanks for watching! I do mine every 8000kms which is about 5000 miles. I'd never stretch it farther than that. Ideally I'd do it 6000kms.
These were great new under $10,000 with discounts. Canada had a true base model with manual windows, too.
@@djkenny1202 thanks for watching! Mine has manual windows at the back, and power up front
@ I recall, that’s how they were equipped.
Mitsubishi is my favorite car company, because as you said they are different. I daily drive a 21 year old Eclipse Spyder GT (I have a few videos of it on my channel), and I have had 8 Mitsubishi total. Especially in Canada, not many Mitsu around. The Spyder gets a lot of attention for sure.
@@TeamGun thanks for watching! I'll be checking out your channel soon.
I actually like white on that car, not only does it look good, it helps the (relatively week and, from what I read, potentially problematic) AC on the car. Dark grey looks great too (if I buy this car I would be debating between those two colors as well), but I fear it'd make the car hotter inside and increase the load on the AC causing it to fail in the long run. I'd probably get the white and cover it with protection film to minimize/avoid the damage you showed. On a different note, please provide details on where you got the leather steering wheel cover; it looks like the car came with it which is pretty slick, thanks.
@@sammyt3514 thanks for watching! Getting a tint will be better at making the AC more efficient. Getting it serviced regularly will keep it from being problematic, including regular cabin filter changes. I've had no issues at all, even during hot summer days. The steering wheel cover was bought from www.wish.com/product/619f48a4c92960e3753ba9be but I got it professionally installed by the same company that did my audio system. Agreed on the film - had I known the paint was so thin, I would have gotten this done.
I paid $1100 for a 66 Ford Bronco and it's now worth $124,900. How much will this car be worth in a few years?
@@aday1637 this is hardly comparable to a vintage Bronco 😅 But, it is the last of the manuals, so who knows? It's worth more now than what I paid, so maybe there's hope. Otherwise, I'll continue to enjoy the fuel savings, which is substantial!
This car will develop a cult following in the future. Many will grow to wish they had purchased one of them. But it will, by then, be too late as Gavin Newscum will outlaw anything more powerful than a skateboard. Owners will be able to fetch $80K for one of these in 2030.
@@aday1637 I hope you're right!
Did you test drive the CVT version of this? Just wondering how different they drive.
@@pedrofernandez8729 yes - more than a few times as a rental vehicle. I found it drove quite nicely. Very smooth. I think the CVT gets more hate than it deserves. That said, I like rowing my own gears 😎
IMO, this is the only way to buy this car. CVT is a dud, like they are on all cars so equipped.
@@pedrofernandez8729 fully agree, and it's a shame that it's no longer offered. Even more of a shame that they've killed off the car entirely. Thanks for watching 😎
@@ilovecables North America does not get any more subcompacts, why? I see lots of them still driving around, some folks just don't need a gas guzzling, huge SUV or pickup truck. Small pickups disappeared and now small cars as well.
@pedrofernandez8729 it's a shame that people buy SUVs or crossovers because they think they need them. Sales and marketing have done the work, and subsequent damage to kill off small affordable cars. I'd never thought I'd ever see a time when the norm is a $60k vehicle. I've always been a less-is-more kinda guy.
So does it handle winter and snow well?
@@jeda2943 it handles it very well with a good set of winter tires. Thanks for watching!
Fun fact the dodge colt was a mirage
@@hanzgruber8676 thanks for watching! I actually had a late 80s Colt Turbo. That car was a LOT of fun!!
Mitsubishi makes ok quality cars that are affordable. As long as you take care of the maintenance it should last you a long time. I grew up in PR and this cars were everywhere and affordable. I currently own a 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander with 147k miles. Engine oil every 6k miles and it still running strong 💪
Thanks for watching! I'm doing regular maintenance and hope to keep this car for at least 10 years. Now that they're killing the model, it's even more incentive to make sure it stays in tip top shape.
Where you get that nice cargo mat?
@@elcano9l52 thanks for watching! I got the Matt's from WeatherTech
god i hate when ppl hit all over the place when tightening the bolts. maybe thats just a german thing
@@Age1608 thanks for watching.
I own 2 with manual tranny. I love them wish they still made them
I had to look up what a K car is. It's a Chrysler.
Thanks for watching!
Do u hve to adjust anything for kilometres when you go from 14" to 15" tires? Or vice versa
Thanks for watching! No, as long as the overall diameter is the same or within 3%. You use a tire size comparison calculator online
I am getting a lot of TH-cam recommendations for these Mitsubishi Mirage owner videos. It's really cool to see how many people buy these and just absolutely love them. There is a lot of value in an efficient and affordable car, and sadly this is basically the last one you can get in America anymore.
Thanks for watching! Indeed, this and the Nissan Versa are all that remain.
If you purchased a Mitsubishi Mirage and are concerned about dings and dents, you bought the wrong car. This is a beater commuter vehicle, plain and simple.
Very true. Still, it's hard to see this happening to something that was once new and shiny. Kind of like Iooking in the mirror to see gray hair and wrinkles!
Mine is a 2018 Mirage SE CVT with 157,000 miles (US). Plenty of power from the 3 cylinder and the excellent CVT keeps the revs low at higher speeds 75-80 mph! Really keeps the noise down. And the big surprise is those small tires really cut through the snow as long as you don't do anything stupid!!!😀
Thanks for watching 😎
Just bought a used 2023 ES. Does not have Android Auto. So want to replace stereo. What stereo did you buy and where did you find it? I live in Ottawa....JIM

Subhanallah I'm glad you're driving a halal vehicle like the 2023 Mitsubishi Mirage. I hope when you go to Jannah Al Firdous, your dear Mirage is waiting for you there too! I'll do a dua for you brother, Mashallah
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video. Just bought a 2023 Mirage, (Apr 2024) so trying to learn about the car. Where did you get the carbon fiber panels? Thanks ...JIM
Thanks for watching! It's vinyl wrap that I got on Ali Express. Cut and applied myself.
We have a thing in common sir I also owned a F57 Mini and now I own a 23 Mirage SE however it’s not a manual sadly I enjoy watching your videos hopefully more to come .. Any more mods on your Mirage ?? May I ask you a favor please is there a way to get a link on where you got your Wheels ??
Thanks for watching! My next video will probably in the fall for my 3 year ownership as well as another Q&A. Website for my rims is www.daiwheels.ca/ May I ask why you no longer have your F57?
@@ilovecables Hello sir thank you for the reply the reason I don’t have my F57 is because of financial issues sadly however I may be thinking of purchasing another in the year or so will see I love that car I bought the Mirage to have transportation and I like it but nothing like the F57 and it was a cabriolet and it was my dream car!! Thank you for sending me the link on the wheels
I heard you can only go to the dealership to get work done for the warranty to be honoured... any truth to that?
Thanks for watching! To be clear, you can get work done anywhere but you need to keep records and receipts for validation. If you need to get anything done under warranty, then it needs to be done by the dealer.
I always enjoy your videos on your Mirage 5 speed
Thanks for watching 😎
We bought a 2017 mirage my wife loves the car we have not had any problems with it in 7 years we just put new tires and brakes on it for the first time if you want a good and dependable car this is the one.
100% agree. Thanks for watching 😎
I've seen people remove plastic scratches with a heat gun 🤷
I'll try that. Thanks for watching!
Have a 21 with 85k miles use it for traveling because of job it’s been okay so far
Thanks for watching!
My wife's 2020 Mirage G4 just passed 45k miles last week. We got it new after her 2005 Chevy Malibu with over 200k miles got totaled and we needed a car fast. Haven't had any major issues yet and its gone across America several times and survived some pretty nasty potholes. Only weirdness so far is the tire pressure sensors activate when it gets cold out but now they're turning on randomly so we're going to have the dealer check it out when we bring it in for servicing next week. I'm honestly tempted to buy a hatchback version for myself since they can be had used in my area for less than $6k.
Thanks for watching!
On the scale of 0-10, what number you will give for overall safety??
Thanks for watching! Knowing how I drive, I'd give it a 10. That said, the shell is very well designed, so I'm not worried if someone or something hits me.
I do like this car. The driver's seat is high and comfortable. The dealership was rude and very unprofessional, so I did not buy one. Great presentation. Thanks for sharing this on TH-cam.
Thanks for watching! I'm sorry you had to go through that experience with that dealer. You can always buy from another dealer.
Ask around and look for positive reviews on a dealer online and go there. My local Nissan dealer is similar, so I go elsewhere for example. Good luck.
@@stevenpollard5171 excellent advice
"High and comfortable" is kind of like me. "Rude and unprofessional" is like my ex.
Buying a car is a logical decision not an emotional one. Even if you dont like the dealership, if you like the product and the price is good, you can still buy it.
Ours is like a wine red color has just under 28,000 miles on it
I wanted that colour, but it wasn't an option on the trim level I chose
We bought a 2023 Mitsubishi mirage hatchback so far we love it
Thanks for watching!
I owned and still daily my 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage HB for 9 years. Its already heavily modified but still runs a good 14L/100km city and 20L/100km highway.
Thanks for watching!
My Mirage G4 is 2019, it has 152,000 miles and no problems with the engine or transmission.
Thanks for watching!
I love my little 2018 Mirage! Bought it just a month or so ago. :) Great video!

Great video! Nice to see another fellow Mirage owner that loves the car like I do. Mine’s coming up on a year this May 2024. Love it 😊

Excellent review 👏. Thank you.

I am planing to buy this car for uber drive. any suggetion
Thanks for watching! It'll do very well as a Uber. Are you buying new or used?
No one will want to get in such a small car.
@@donc6781 yet many people all over the world do every day
@@ilovecables I was speaking for the US. Many Americans would never be able to squeeze into such a small car
@@donc6781 I'm guessing from your comment that you've never sat in one. It's quite spacious and would serve an Uber driver quite well. Unless of course, said passenger was 6'5" and 300+ pounds.
Hello there .. I currently own a 2023 Mirage and I am pleasantly surprised how this car is well built for an economy car I owned many vehicles in my past and this little car is really good and reliable .. Thank you for reviewing this car I hope many more videos to come
Thanks for watching! Planning the next one for sure at the 3 year point. Might do one after the next oil change and spring clean up
I retired our 22 years old Dodge van and was planning on buying a small economy hatchback for city driving and the reasonably priced 2024 Mirage was just perfect for me. My wife, however, found the Mirage too small so we ended up getting a 2024 Honda HRV which was a little bigger and taller but way more expensive. i still like the Mirage.
@@robertonavarro7713 thanks for watching!
@@ilovecables You're welcome, sir.
Thank you. I feel much better about selecting the Mirage ES. My '13 Outlander Sport ES kept stalling on me at intersections and it was very close to 176,000. I was told it isn't worth it at this point to change the CAT and to fix the transmission. So I have the sapphire blue Mirage and got it used with only 3,800 miles. Only need it for work mostly. I hope over time since I live in the mountains that the hills aren't problematic. I know 160 miles/day, 4 days/week is a lot lol.
Thanks for watching! I think you'll find it handles hills with ease.
A great and honest review ✌
Thanks for watching!
Manual transmission impossible to buy in USA 😢 That what I want!
Thanks for watching! Manual isn't available anymore in Canada either
The detailers left the floor mats filthy like that?🤷🏻♂️
They only did an exterior wash this time. I get a complete interior clean in the spring. Thanks for watching!
I got a 2024 Mirage ES with the CVT, I really enjoy it. I put 10,700 miles, or 17,000 KM on it since September 27th, 2023. I mostly do freeway driving, I merge on the freeway with about 2,500 RPM, gets me to about 50 MPH (80 KPH) at the end of the onramps, good enough. I set cruise to 55, or 60 MPH, or about 90-95 KPH, and just do that. It sits about 1,900 RPM at those speeds. Overall, the car has been amazing. Being a slower driver, I have averaged 49.7 US MPG, or 4.7L/100KM. Or 59.7 MPG Imperial. Either way, it's been amazing. Would get the car again. Have no plans on getting a different car, it's perfect for me. I want it to reach 500,000 miles.
Thanks for watching!
I want mine to go that far too! My last car I was forced to replace, a 1998 Toyota Corolla that got smooshed with me in it. It was robbed. Only had about 6500 miles to get to 500k miles.
@@tradingnichols2255 I hate to hear about your accident. If you don't mind my asking, was the insurance company generous with their payout? I've heard that insurance companies are giving more generously these days.
Aren’t you scared with every one passing you going 20 mph faster than you? Do you stay in the far right lane?
@@donc6781 It depends on traffic flow. If there is dense traffic, it gets a bit alarming. But when only like 5-7 people pass me in a minute, that's not as alarming. I stay to the far right. I like when I go out to the more rural areas, sure, people drive faster, but far less people. So when they pass, it might be 30 MPH faster than me, but only 1 or 2 cars every few minutes.
Thanks for your videos. Very helpful for my purchase of a used 2022 Mirage ES 5 spd MT this past weekend. Good simple car.
Thanks for watching!
Your videos helped me in my decision to get a mirage. Ive had mine for 2 months now, it definitely fits my needs. I push it a lil too hard tho, need to relax.
What MPG have you gotten in your Mirage Waheeb?
@@extralock1045 hi extra, I’m getting 5.5 mpg, mostly highway driving
I meant 5,5l/100km *** lol sorry Canadian metric
Not too low! I get 4.7L/100KM, or about 49.7 MPG (US). I drive like a grandma. (:@@waheeb_m
