    No offense to those that have modded clean 9G's, stock, they look horrible.

    I in agreement with this one. The new design of the G appeals to no one. I've seen about two since being released. End production.

    I have been seeing a lot more lately, but they have already been out for what? 5 years. I have never seen that many before. I never noticed them until one day at a gas station, I was in my G and saw the new style and said EW. Never saw it before that day and I got my G 4.10.07

    That is too bad - the Galant nameplate is the longest running in Mitsubishi history (since 1969).

    Some things just have to go. They completely ruined the style as they did with the Eclipse too. Sometimes new designs shouldn't be made.

    It'd be nice if they could be like Porsche with the 911 and just slightly rework things here and there, instead of ruining it completely.

    yes I heard about this. made me say wtf.

    IMO They didnt need to move from the 8g shape to the 9g shape. 8g was aggressive looking, 9 looks like typical family car. bloated and curvey.

    there's always the Lancer Ralliart if you need something like that....

    it is a equivalent of Galant Fortis Ralliart anyway.
