For starters its not an LS its a VR mivec. 1600cc and when new, 175bhp, sadly not anymore but still very quick, not very fuel economical when drivin it like a meth head. can be a bit of a scare at times, she dont like the wet...at all, tight handbrake solves that though! All in all a neat little motor.Oct 26, 2009

This car is so much fun to drive, turns quickly and you can move through traffic with no issues at all, i drove this car all over the state of washington and now i have driving all the way down through oregon to Nevada and only put a total of 50 dollars in for gas. Tell you what any of my old cars on this trip would of emptied my wallet keeping it on full.Oct 23, 2009

too much turbo lag, and the tranny needs to be swapped to a five speed. other than that..very fas, almost evo conversion. I would reccomend this to anyone who has the patience and time.. do a build like this!Sep 17, 2009

My little car is a gutless wonder--it's terrible to watch drivers behind me swearing when I can only go 15 mph uphill...they just don't know I have my foot all the way to the floor...but it's my size and I can reach all the peddles!!And I can reach across the seat to roll down the windows. No stretch...Sep 28, 2008

My white Mirage has been a reliable, if un-sexy, car.
I've never really had to put a whole lot of money in to
repair, but it is a little guttless. Has its good points
and its bad points. It's alright.Jun 29, 2008
