GL (2014)
Bought new, Owned for 2 Years
Fuel Economy: 17.0 km/litre (5.9 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 1,800 km/month
    Love the fuel efficiency. My average FC is around 16-17 km/l (heavy footed)
    Small car = easy parking = easy to sneak around
    My mirage 5 speed manual model (MT) a very powerful car. Great for uphills, taking over cars and for heavy footed drivers.
    Even the cabin is noisy but compare to proton/ perodua's noise insulation, mirage noise insulation was way better.
    Soft suspension, comfy ride even on untar roads.
    Love the placement of compartments on the dashboard, lots of water bottles holders and cup holders.
    Free 1 years service with parts.
    Love the ETACS systems
    .
    Suspension might be too soft for hard cornering. Need to install ARB.
    Lack of 3rd party accessories and 3rd party spare parts.
    Brake problems
    Long old fashioned antenna


To Improve
Have the SC to do better service and same price rate for every customer.
Include ARB in every mirage model.
Yes, I would recommend this car

GS (2014)
Bought new, Owned for 2 Years
Fuel Economy: 16.0 km/litre (6.3 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 1,600 km/month
    - fuel saving (17km/L on avg)
    - ergonomic interior design with digital aircon function
    - best interior design compared to similar price cars
    - huge boot space with extended depth for 2 hand carry luggages (still not enough to fit a guitar with hard cover casing) ** need decent boot space with fuel saving i would recommend attrage.
    - good after sale services and professional service crews to handle your car
    - has decent 2-din kenwood head unit with user adjustment of high, mid & bass EQ
    - suspension is soft
    - after-market parts are limited, where else original spare parts are too expensive.
    - noisy cabin when engine rev above 3k rpm
    - no boot light.
    - audio unit does not comes with bluetooth for selected model
    - engine working too hard when cutting lane above 100kph
    - no audio steering control
To Improve
- hope that they come out with mirage turbo version
- re-tune the suspension for more firm ride.
- Mitsubishi Malaysia should provide audio unit with bluetooth connectivity and audio steering control
Yes, I would recommend this car

GS (2014)
Bought new, Owned for 1 Year
RON95, Mileage: 1,200 km/month
    -Fuel efficiency is definitely the main reason of purchasing this car
    -The second reason would probably be the brand value of Mitsubishi having a good reputation in the car industry with a consistent success story on reliability.
    - Relatively spacious cabin
    - For those who purchased the limited edition sports version ( for an extra RM4k), you get a touch screen Kenwood Double-Din Head Unit ( You can even play a dvd cd in that player and watch at the screen), Leather seats, Full body kit, Llumar Security Tinting, 15" Inch sport rims ( They actually look decent!) and limited edition floor mats.
    - Quite stable at high speeds ( 120-140km/h) despite it's extremely light-weighted body at only 850kg.
    - Free service including parts and labour for the 1st year.
    - Half decent audio speakers
    - Extremely aerodynamic.
    - Suspension wayyyy too soft.
    - Engine revs pretty loud and can clearly be heard from the cabin.
    - Very common problems are present throughout all mirages for eg: starter problem, flywheel problem, suspension problem, braking problem.
    - Slighty over priced probably because it's a CBU car imported from Thailand.
    - When going up hills, you would need to really put your foot down to get going.
To Improve
1) Improve the suspension
2) Improve the manufacturing quality
3) Improve the level of customer service and satisfaction throughout all service centres.
4) Extend the warranty to 5 years compared to the current 3 years.
5) Include traction control in this car for better safety measures. The sub-standard soft suspension really scares me sometimes.

Overall, a decent car that gets you from A to B with great fuel consumption.
Yes, I would recommend this car
