Comparison Review

Comfort
Due to its greater rear head- and legroom, backseat passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Mitsubishi Mirage than the Nissan GT-R. The Nissan GT-R will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Mitsubishi Mirage.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Mitsubishi Mirage as you will with the Nissan GT-R, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Based on MSRP, the Mitsubishi Mirage is clearly a better financial choice over the Nissan GT-R.

Dimensions
Since the Mitsubishi Mirage is much slimmer than the Nissan GT-R, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. If you go with the Mitsubishi Mirage, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the Nissan GT-R.

Handling
The Mitsubishi Mirage has a significantly smaller turning radius than the Nissan GT-R, allowing much better maneuverability in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Mitsubishi Mirage is significantly less powerful than the Nissan GT-R. The good news is that, reportedly, cars with lower horsepower engines often have lower insurance premiums.

Powertrain
The Mitsubishi Mirage has much less torque than the Nissan GT-R, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
The Mitsubishi Mirage offers greater seating capacity than the Nissan GT-R, making it a better choice for those who find themselves chauffeuring others around.
