Used 2000 Mitsubishi Mirage DE for Sale near Chico, CA

Great car I really like it.I would recommend it to my friends to drive it to school,work,and just around city to have fun to party. Performance is decent for size of this type of car. As I know it has 112hp and with an automatic transmission it pulls fine, but for it to be fun you definitely need manual tranny. Appearance cool but it also made to look even better just throw a body kits on, a simple spoiler, some set of simply cool looking rims, change may be to original headlight and taillights

This car is incredibly reliable. It has never stalled on us, despite being left outside in the -25C weather that sometimes occurs in Maine winters. Our car (nicknamed "Esmerelda" or "Ezzie"), is very easy to drive as the power steering requires very little effort to control. The ride is reasonably smooth and, important for US drivers these days, the fuel economy is very good. We get about 500 kilometres on a full tank of 45 litres (11.11 kilometres a liter or . 25 mpg). Not bad for an eight year old car. Performance is variable in this car. It is definitely underpowered for the racing type and has major problems getting about 100 kmh when going uphill. However, on a flat road she can easily go to about 175 kmh - a speed which is more than sufficient for family use. The quality of this vehicle's engine is amazing. It has never overheated, never stalled since we have had it. Obviously, the oil is changed every 4,800 km (3,000 miles) without fail. The only parts that we have had to change since 2001 have been: 1) The tyres (all four changed twice). 2) The alternator 3) The radio and CD player (stopped playing CDs) 4) The timing belt (changed at 120,700 km (75,000 miles) 5) The windshield wipers (changed 4 times in 8 years) 6) The windshield wiper arms 7) The lights/turn unit had to be repaired (by me ....). 8) The automatic transmission fluid - twice in 8 years. 9) Oil - changed once every 4,800 km (3,000 miles). 10) Windshield (hit by stone from a truck's wheel). The odometer on the car is about 225,000 km (140,000 miles). Appearance: The car does have a tendency to rust and we have a slight amount of visible rust on the right back door. Cost of Ownership: Cheap compared to a lot of others. Roadtax is now $84 a year. Fun Factor: A good car for two people. I would not fancy sitting in the back for long - though, it is way too cramped.

I really miss this car. It was my project car that I had put a lot of time and money in to. It was fun to drive, never gave me any problem and was great on gas. In the 3 years I owned this car it was like my second wife I took very good care of it.

i bought this as a commuter vehicle. it is great on gas, even with 260,000 miles on it. My son currently drives it, and we have made some cosmetic upgrades, like new headlights and taillights, handles good, but doesn't have a lot of power.

It has good acceleration for a stock automatic with a 0-60 in under 10 sec. You do have to remember that there is a lag in the automantic, though the gear designation when you floor it seems reasonable. The max speed is yet to be determined do to safety restrictions on the highway (117 mph is the max I've seen). Though with its 116 hp and torque getting above those speeds is a little difficult. The e-brake works very well around corners =P. The interior is Small for someone over 6 ft, mainly the area nder the steering wheel. Also, for someone of my height the vehicle can be a little difficult to get out of. The styling is nothing special seeing that it is your base model. And one more thing, it does not have ABS (though it does have air bags). Handling with the stock suspension what you would expect from an economy car.
