I've driven this vehicle from Idaho to Florida to

I've driven this vehicle from Idaho to Florida to California through blizzards and hurricanes. It handled well on icy roads on normal tyres with no chains on them. It handled well through tropical storms and hurricane conditions. It gave me 50 MPGs in Orlando and gives me 35 MPGs in LA traffic. Even in 30 below zero weather it always has fired right up. I've driven it 50k miles and have only had to change the oil and replace the brakes. It's a great little car. I'm 6'0", 280 lbs and I fit great. It's as comfortable as Lincolns and Lexuses I've owned at a fraction of the cost of operation.

worst car ever

worst car i’ve ever had , please don’t get fooled because it’s cheap.. you will regret buying it. i’ve had so many issues with it and i’ve only had it for 2 years. if i’m going in the highway and going pass 60 mph, my car starts to shake while driving and starts making weird whistling noises… i do not feel safe driving it at all.

Worst car I've ever owned

Never buy a car with a CVT transmission. They are junk and the manufacturer won't honor the warranty. The car is cheaply made and unconformable to drive.

No Regrets with This Car

My last car was an older SUV, which unfortunately died a few months back. I recently purchased a used 2017 Mirage G4 for about $8,000 and 40,000 miles. Its been almost 6 months with the Mirage and I am still really satisfied with this car! There are only 4 speakers in the car, but they sound really great and have a surprising amount of bass, and I regularly (almost daily) get 50+mpg on my way to work. I live in the city and even with heavy city driving I never get less than 35mpg. It's a really comfortable ride and it handles bumps pretty well! For the price the car is definitely worth the money. You can get a brand new Mirage G4 with all the bells and whistles for less than $20,000.

Worse car I have ever owner Warranty sucks

Very cheaply made. Was told it was new. But found out on CarFax it was sold 7 times before I bought it. La Porte Mitsubishi bent my trunk lid and now dont want to fix it.

Sort of mixed feelings

Although I asked the dealer for a car that would be good on gas as I drive between states often I should have been more specific. The CVT transmission is terrible. It's loud and annoying. The car has little to no pickup when meeting into traffic. I also now have to replace both fog lights as they are both cracked and broken beyond use. Next car I'll shop a little better.

Good car but small

As far as milage is concerned this car is a great buy. I do on call nursing and I can get to and from patients without worrying about gas.

Good on gas

I really like that it saves you alot of money on gas. Juat don't like the sound of the engine and that it doesn't have much power when taking off. But its a temporary car to helo me save money.
