There was a little rust that formed on the interior. The trunk has a water leak. The starter went bad a year ago. The brake pads needed to be replaced. The paint shows some imperfection, but overall has good quality.
This car is a pleasure to dirve around. Although it appears small on the outside, the two front seats are actually very spacious. Although I wouldn't recommend this car for an entire family, it certainly serves its purpose as a econo vehicle and a car for two or three people to comfortably go for a drive. The car handles surprisingly well in the snow and gets very good gas mileage. Truly, the mirage is an underrated and very ecnomical automobile.
My girlfriend's first car was a 1996 Mitsu Mirage. It has proven to be the best car ever!!! From the looks of this cheaply made vehicle it seems that any small collision would kill all passengers in the car, but surprisingly this little trooper can hold up quite well! She is not the best driver ever and actually the car has been wrecked numerous times. Once the car was jammed underneath an eighteen- wheeler and had to be removed by a fork lift. Another time the car flipped over into a ditch and was turned back over and was able to be driven off. The car is surprisingly in great condition and is pushing 200,000 miles with no problems ever!!! it has outlasted all of the cars she has purchased afterwards. Love Love Love this little car!!
