    ill prolly get the mirage coz he did say note the 200k difference, kasi afaik okay nman din ang mitsubishi when it comes to reliability, the new model issues will be fixed din naman un. and para sakin may mas dating ang mirage compared to vios.

    and add a bit more and youll get alot of goodies, like gps and push start

    bago palang, may issue na, hard starting, recall dyan sa abs sensor, damp odor sa aircon, road noise, shaky engine, engine hesitation(delay in acceleration). soft suspension at the back(agad bumababa), lets wait for other issues.....

    woooow ganyan kadami agad issues for mirage? kailan acquired? kala ko yang poor suspension ng mitsubishi sa mga lancer lang na late 2000 pababa. until now ganyan pa din?

    isolated issue or widespread issue ba to? can anyone confirm? may mga friends kasi ako na may mirage wala pa naman ako naririnig na ganon.

    hard starting - no experience
    recall due to ABS sensor - di lang naman ang mirage ang may recall
    road noise - nipis ng body - kulang sa sound insulation, dahil sa gulong - maingay
    shaky engine - pag idle, 3 cylinders lang kasi
    engine hesitation - no experience
    soft suspension - suspension setup, not to be overloaded, body roll

    btw, GLS CVT mirage namin

    for a one time buyer ( I assume this means you do not buy a new one every 3-5 years or so), I'll go for the Vios if you can afford it.
    go for the tried and tested models since you will be using it for quite some time.

    my mother-in-law owns a 2008 Vios and it is still good except for the stiff clutch which maybe due to normal wear and tear.

    Risk talaga ang di masyadong popular na models in terms of availability of parts outside of Metro Manila (or Kapalangan kung malapit ka don hehe). Even my dad's kahit-saang-sari-sari-may-pyesa AE101 still gets its parts via yours truly. If I were in your shoes I'll get the Vios (bias aside) but wait for the new model. Let the Mirage "age" a bit.

    That being said we're getting a Mirage CVT because we already have a Vios E AT The Mirage is smaller and IMO easier to drive/park. Space is not a big issue because my byenan will be driving it most of the time for their grocery and church runs.
