Powertrain
The 3.7 L engine was the standard engine in the base Mirada with the 5.2 L V8 offered as optional, and the 5.9 L V8 was only available in the Mirada CMX (less than 100 cars were built with the engine) and only in the 1980 model. All of these engines were mated to the A904 automatic transmission except the 360, which received the beefier A727.
