For me the issue is: it's the Accent sedan. I doubt I'd pull the trigger on a sedan over a hatchback, even for a few hundred bucks less.
And the 9998 Mirage price hasn't ended -- it's still on their website as of this AM. But you're right: Mitsu doesn't seem to have the cash or the gumption to proclaim it widely, loudly & proudly the way Nissan does with the Micra.
Another question: if lower tarrifs have really made it cheaper to sell Korean made cars here, will we finally see GM try to compete on price with the Spark? It's made at GM-Daewoo in S. Korea. Or are they content selling 27 of those a month, as they did in December?
