Mitsubishi Mirage
| Model | Mitsubishi Mirage | |
| What things have gone wrong with the car? | Lack of super decent Acceleration, but it gets the job done. | |
| General comments? | Okay, first off, when people ask what I drive, I say a Mitsubishi Mirage, and they chuckle lightly to themselves. Well, take me on and you'll have nothing to laugh about. The model I currently own is the 1999 Mirage 1.8 liter. This isn't the biggest engine in the world, and not many people would agree that the car is raceable. Well, it is. But, first let's go over the stock vehicle. The engine in the 1.8 model is anything but weak. I did an oil change and put in a new Air filter and the Dyno read 125 horsepower. That can be a little more than any person would expect from this compact four-door. The 5 speed Manual Transmission isn't too bad. It'll get up and go if you know what you're doing. Acceleration could use a little work, though. Mine clocked in at 0-60mph in less than 8 seconds, and that's not too shabby compared to most Hondas which claim of their magnificent horsepower and 0-60 times of 7.2 seconds. I mean, come on!!! My Mirage can do that! ( Well, almost ) Anyway, I believe the interior to be suiting to my taste also. It's comforting, but some things seem outta place. Anyway, for those who think you can't race them, you're wrong! I have a Mitsubishi Lancer Evoloution 5 Body Kit on there, along with a GReddy cutom made turbocharger, stainless steel headers, and an intercooler. It'll now do 0-60 times in 4.9 seconds!!!! ( I know, it rocks ) But anyway it's a good little car for the Japanese Import enthusiast. | |
