Used Mitsubishi Mirage for Sale in Colorado Springs, CO

Just bought a '15 brand new with a 5 speed stick DE model for $9588.00 plus tax. Unbelievable! Huge sale brought me into the fold and the car doesn't disappoint. The car is packed with standard feature and Is easy to drive. Professional reviewers mention how the handling and performance are sub par but in reality the car is fine on the road. Sure it could be tuned to be tighter but it is fine. Maybe the '17 model will include a USA tuned suspension. Acceleration with the 5 speed is fine and the car is totally geared towards fuel efficiency. On the first tank of gas the car pegged 46.3 miles per gallon in mixed driving. I find the car super easy to drive and it's very comfortable on the inside. The dash design is good and materials are par for the class. The seats and auto climate controls are far above class average. If your going to drive a small car you hope to get above 40 mpg. In the Mirage you actually get that high mpg at a low price in a good package. The car is a great value and I'm glad I waited to get one. I almost bought one in the fall for around $11,500 but I waited and lucked out. Now that I own one I would say anywhere between 9500 and 11500 would be a fair price for the Mirage. On the upper end ES model prices can get up there pretty high and I would question the value of those models seeing that they have all the same mechanics as the DE model. The DE model come standard with power windows locks and mirrors. It also has a/c and a good stereo. Look for a bargain and get yourself a Mirage.

In the 10K class of new cars (only looking at stick, as with small engines all other trannies have bad performance), I have looked at: 1. Chevy Volt. Totally rejected due to Onstar and the inability to truly disable it even when unsubscribed. No spying is desired. 2. Nissan Versa. Off the line performance sucks bad, even though it has a bigger engine. It seems like they have detuned it so that you can't peel out. I wouldn't want to cross 4 lanes with this one. Car is most comfortable but feels heavy and gets bad MPG. 3. Mitsubishi Mirage. Best bang for buck. Great acceleration for size of engine/MPG with stick. Seats could be a little more comfortable, but not bad. I bought the base version as I did not want the proximity key/push button start that comes with the upgraded versions, since so many of the proximity keys have been hacked. It would have been nice to have the alloy wheels and cruise, but I feel much safer not having the proximity key.

I bought my 2015 Mirage ES with Navigation about 2 weeks ago and had to make a 3 hour drive back home from the dealer on I-495 (belt way) and had no issues going 75mph and keeping up with traffic. I averaged 50mpg on the drive back. The ride is amazingly smooth for such a small car!!! I love the Navigation and Back Up Camera that I got as the $900.00 option package and it also has the $695.00 Sport Appearance Package which really makes it look sharp. My co-worker purchase a 2015 ES with Navigation back in November 2014 and 5,000 miles later not one issue we both love our Mirage's!!! I got mine in Starlight Silver and my co-workers is Infared. The Interior is really spacious and the trunk is very roomy!!! I had my choice of many cars and I knew hands down this was the car for me and I couldnt be happier. All of the negative reviews this car has is just plain stupid. It is full of features, power windows, locks, mirrors, push button start, navigation, back up camera, cd, dvd, automatic climate control, fog lights, fast key with keyless start, button access, ABS, Hill Hold Assist, TC, Stability Control and much much more!!! You cant go wrong with any Mirage!!!!
