Market analysis

Why does the Mitsubishi Mirage transmission cost more?

A used Mitsubishi Mirage transmission carries a median asking price of $850, which is 17% higher than the Ram 1500 at $705. Supply also plays a role: Ram 1500 has 6,162 priced listings versus 389 for Mitsubishi Mirage, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.

Our guide covers 11 model years for the Ram 1500 (2015–2025) but only 9 for the Mitsubishi Mirage (2015–2024), so the Ram 1500 data reflects a broader range of generations.

Only 52% of Mitsubishi Mirage transmission listings include a posted price (389 of 753 observed) — the rest are "call for price," which usually signals negotiable or higher-than-average pricing.

At Grade B (good) condition, the Ram 1500 is 25% cheaper ($638 vs $850) — the gap narrows compared to the overall median difference.

Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used transmission

  • Match the exact transmission ID stamped on the case — the same vehicle can use different units depending on engine, drivetrain, and gear ratio.
  • Ask if the transmission was tested before removal. Fluid color matters: red/pink is healthy, brown or burnt-smelling fluid signals internal wear.
  • Confirm whether a torque converter (automatic) or clutch kit (manual) is included. Replacing these separately adds $150–$400.
  • Check the warranty: reputable yards offer 30–90 days on transmissions. Avoid any with no warranty at all.
