2002 Mitsubishi Mirage Consumer Reviews

Cheap to high performance

Vehicle

2002 Mitsubishi Mirage DE 2dr Coupe (1.5L 4cyl 5M)

Review

This car handles great, good on gas, to gain more horse just replace air filter with a KN filter. That will give you 12 additional horse power and if you spend an additional $150 bucks you can up the performance with an after market chip for extra 30 hp without affecting smog. Cheapest way to get performance for a very reliable car-try it!

Awesome Mitsu!

Vehicle

2002 Mitsubishi Mirage DE 2dr Coupe (1.5L 4cyl 5M)

Review

Got my 2002 Mirage in '03.I hear a lot about bad mpg but mine gets an awesome 35+ mpg. Fun car with killer body kits, carbon fiber hoods, cold air intakes, etc. I've done a lot to mine and it just gets better mpg. Turbos for the 1.5l is out there but are expensive. Mine has 100+hp with 2.5 exhaust and cold air intake. So power is good and easily achieved. Cheap car, so cheap interior can we expect more? It does the job!

Over all this is a good car. I drove it for a little over 3 years when I traded it in for something larger. Very dependable.

Mitusbishi ride to thrill

Vehicle

2002 Mitsubishi Mirage DE 2dr Coupe (1.5L 4cyl 5M)

Review

I bought this car in April 2006 for only $7,999. It recently hit 23,000 miles. It was cheap and affordable. It was the best deal from a car dealership plus it still had avpowertrain warranty on it. It was easy to drive and had less confusing controls inside the car. It handled like a dream. It was a sporty looking car. The back part of it looks like Honda Coupe. I am not complaining about the power. It could have more, but that would make it more expensive. The car is very affordable, nice, and fun to drive of course. It does not give a good milege on roadways but on highways it does pretty well. For people with a tight budget who want a decent, sporty, eye-catching car, this would be it.

Review

The Mitsubishi Mirage is a great car to drive around and just have fun with especially for a teeager or a younger person. It looks sporty and has pretty good power for a 4-cylinder vehicle. I'm thinking about fixing mine up, they make excellent import tuner cars.

Gets you from A to B

Vehicle

2002 Mitsubishi Mirage DE 2dr Coupe (1.5L 4cyl 5M)

Review

I got this used with 36,000 miles on it. The car has good exterior styling, but the inside feels cheap. The seats, sun visors, air filters. The sound system is not that great. The door is too heavy. The car is very slow, so it gets decent gas mileage. It seems fairly reliable, and gets me from A to B without much problems. The wheel size is small, so the tires don't cost much either. I got this car because I got a good deal on it...Otherwise, I'd have chosen something more fun to drive...like the Mazda Protege I have had.

Not bad, but nothing to write home about

Vehicle

2002 Mitsubishi Mirage DE 2dr Coupe (1.5L 4cyl 5M)

Review

I bought this car when it was 8 months old fo a very decent price. It's good basic transportation but nothing more. It will get you to work and back with no major drama. Once it gets up to speed, it isn't bad, but it is very slow off the line. So slow, it can be dangerous. Drive it until it dies, because it has no resale value. Quality of materials is very cheap. I see 2-3 year old Mirages with the paint peeling off or very faded. I wax mine 3 times/year and so far I am lucky.
