My Mirage is a GLS variant sir. It has a very usable GPS system. Very good AC and lotsa features (keyless operation, start/stop button, auto AC, 15" mags, spoiler, foglamps, 5 headrest, 5pcs 3 pt. ELR belts, trip computer, etc). Ang sakit ng Mirage eh yung low quality flywheel cover/starter/driveplate from Thailand units. It's actually on an informal recall if I should call it. Kasi alam naman ng Mitsubishi pero kelangan customer initiated para palitan. Other than that I have no complains with my car. Yung akin nakapila na for replacement sa casa. Of course at their expense, under warranty. As for me, kung papasok sa 700K ang Yaris AT, yun pa din vote ko. Had a Vios before and it is virtually problem free car. Sayang lang talaga nawala sa isip ko nung bibili kami Mirage hehehe

Hahaha! Baka mag-humataw yan sa Daanghari, mag tokyo drift, delikado hehehe

From my current place camella springville to northgate 12km. From my parents house at wood estate 16kms. By the way, vios maintenance is dirt cheap 1250change oil. Casa price. 3350fully synthetic oil. So you do the math. Hahaha

Pero imho mapavios o mirage hindi ka na talo. Yes magkaibang category pero same purpose point a to b. If I have spare money I will also get mirage. Nataon lang na need ko na sasakyan at haba pila sa mirage so I have the vios and hindi ako nagsisisi. Hth.

The all new vios gets my vote. But its significantly more expensive so if you dont need the space, the mirage will be fine.

Vios ang pipiliin ko regardless kung old model o new model

agree ako dito, talagang bias ako based on what i am experiencing on my vios and as i have mentioned before that i would rather let the dust settle before buying a new model.

especially if it is not tested in the local market, kahit cellphone luma na ihpone 4s bago ako kumuha, luma na din s3 bago ako kumuha para sure ako na sulit IMHO. hindi naman ako nakikiuso at minsan paper specs, advertisements and others are not that accurate. User (other) experience muna pinagbabasehan ko.

For me, if you're going to get an automatic car, then get the Vios instead of the Mirage. Why? Because the Vios has a traditional "torque converter" automatic transmission which is more durable, has less issues and feels more natural than a CVT transmission. Cars with CVT drive like scooters and often have problems.

But if you're considering getting a manual car, Mirage it is!
