The mortgage tax deduction still sin't as good as not paying the interest at all. Best case you get a what 40% deduction on the interest you pay? if you didn't pay any interest that is a 100% deduction. So real rich people (and smart poor people soon to be rich) don't carry any debt at all.
Edmunds.com has a pretty good cost of ownership for new cars but I don't see the Mirage listed. A 2014 basic Civic comes out to be $10,000. A 2014 Stingray is $21,000 for the first year. Each is less after.
