Honda already fixed the Civic...

Irrelevant.

People are panic buying toilet paper and (in the US) guns. That makes no sense either.

Generally correct, but it’s never been Zed Zed Top.

Nissan: “Are we doing this right?”

A - ha!

My logical brain says NP.

There it is. I was wondering how this tiny thing could be as heavy as my Challenger. 

I have the predecessor to the Mirage, the Mistubishi Colt. I have to agree with you about it’s performance. It’s no speed demon, but it’s an eager little car. I love tossing it into hairpins on Italian roads and never having to worry about over doing it. 

That’s exactly what happened. It starts at 2900 lbs for FWD and 3200 for AWD.

Is it ok if I find myself thinking about Kim Kardashian?

Can’t be near as bad as the 2010ish Chevy Aveo my wife and I rented when we went to a wedding in Colorado. Getting on the freeway was outright scary. I had to FLOOR it and hope to god I wouldn’t get run over by oncoming traffic. Other than the 1980's diesel Isuzu Pup my friend owned in high school the slowest vehicle…

There are plenty of Mazda 1.3L engines running 600+ hp

“and Ford no longer sells their nifty little one-liter three.”

Between the Trax and the Equinox. Trax is tiny, this is a bit bigger like a Cruze-sized and the Equinox is on the larger end of the compact class. 

Blazing trails alright, to Costco and hoarding all the TP.

I believe its between the Equinox and the Trax

It’s not the horsepower that’s important here, it’s the torque.
