This is my second Mitsubishi (first was a pickup), and can't imagine buying anything else. Just turned 170,000 miles, and never had to do anything with it except very routine maintenance. Gas mileage has waned a bit with age, but still easily tops 35. Great pick-up given its small engine. Body in great shape for a car its age, especially considering it has spent its whole life in upstate New York. Only drawback is the leaky trunk - I can't seem to keep the rain out. Not sure why Edmunds.com editors have given the new models the thumbs-down, because this car has been the best for me.
Perfect First Car

I got this car when i first started driving. I bought it for a ridiculous amount 8 years ago and the only problem I've had was the power steering pump (easy fix) and its run perfect. Good car to learn how to drive with, very reliable, and very good on gas. It isn't a sports car by any means, but it has very good handling.

Over 150000 miles were driven over long distances, most were in hot weather extremes. The car never had a break down nor required more than basic recommended maintenance (oil changes, tune ups, belt replaced at 100000 miles, valve gasket replaced), tires were replaced twice, brakes were replaced at around 90000 miles, and it just got a new battery. The car was used for a variety of purposes: rough camping for from 3 to 7 days; hauling wood/lumber; mountain, desert, and dirt roads; and vacations with lots of luggage - and took it all in stride.

The only problems I've had with my Mirage is a rust problem with the back- end; water tends to accumulate in the trunk, with rust problems near the back end. Other than that it seems to be an extremely reliable little car.
