The new Galant body style

[The 99 Galant]

i just saw the new G and i think its ugly. Gone are the good days of nice classic lines. Now we have that new Honda look for their Accord and the maxima look. I hate that look. Its all curvy and weird looking. I like the BMW and Mercedes boxy yet very smooth lines. Damn them designers!!!!

[FastNFabolous]

i totally agree w/ you.

[Alexey]

Not trying to hate on the older styles, but i like 8G's the most, they just have that sexy shape 8)

[The 99 Galant]

8G have the best look to them. Their lines and grill match better than the older G grills. Plus the rear lights and overall dimensions of the car look better. The older ones look too skinny and remind me of a Hyundai or Kia or even worse a Geo.

[Dre]

So far it's unanimous. 13-0 in favor of the 8G style.

[galantebeige]

We can only wait and see Mitsubishi's sales reports and find out if the market likes the new body style.

I would not but a car that is a great machine but looks ugly. Maybe others agree on that. (not implying that the 2004 has a great engine or what not)

And, I too, don't like it. I went to see it at the Dealer, and was a bit dissapointed. It looks....fat.

Hard Sell I like both.

I still have yet to see a black 9G Galant, i think that color will look best on the 9G. In that case I think its a close call.

[The 99 Galant]

its the same look as the new hondas and Maxima. I don't like it. Everyone's front grill is also looking the same now. Soon you won't be able to tell the difference from a G to a Maxima to an Infinite. They all will look alike. Damn them stupid designers.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow your role jabronie. Did you say geo and kia??? :x

[Dark7GHawk]

Neither looks good, we 7G owners have the best looking cars. Period.

The 7 G reminds me of a Kia Sophia. And the headlights look funny. It might just be the grill and if that gets changed it'd be alright. The 8G is the best looking year.

[xpldy]

yea the 8g definitely looks better stock than all the other generations, but i think the 6g can be made the best. i remember one member had an incredible purple 6g, and that was just nuts. but they all look good. this new one just doesnt :?

[HeadAche]

I still dont like the new style of it, no matter how much i see it.. It just looks like a damn altima.. if there where gonna change the style of it, it should have been simple, maybe a 2-door or something with a manual tranny..

i do got to agree, have you seen a 98 Hyundai accent tails? they look like the 2g JDMs

I think its very clear that most of us do not like the new Galant body, but its still a Galant. And one day they (Mitsubishi) will listen to us (TGC :wink: ) and will make a rally/sports option of the Galant just for us :biggrin: , but until then this is where the Galant is at for now. Like it or not they will be passing by you (GTS) and you would be shaking your head :nono: while they will be saying :orangeyes:.

[ChikagoGTZ]

I like the 8G best but I love the 6g too, I've been looking for an old one to beat up on....but there is nothing for under $600.....I found a VR-4 for 10K though....sweet!

[The 99 Galant]

well, I don't like the new Galants at all. Why didn't they just keep the newer style G's with the redone front end and all. They look awesome. Anyways, a GTZ engine will swap into a ES i-4 right? If so then no freakin ugly G with a crap bodystyle is going to pass me without a fight and a good finger.!!!!lol

[horace_the_evil_appendix]

the 8th gen is by far the best looking galant to date, thats why i own one... i agreee with everyone else, the new g looks lke the altimas chubby sister

[maxigor]

Il take my 8g any day over the pos 9g same thing goes for 7g no offense lol.

[99BabyBenz-aka Herb]

99 the best ever made 8g

[Joeson2all]

8G is totally the best. i remeber seeing it on the street when i was 17. and i was like DAM!! i gotta have one!! But this 9G..... cmon wut the hell is that.
they wanted to make something really differnce.. but sadly they fail..

[Wintergalant]

8G all the way guys!!! https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif

[seth98esT]

97/98 takes the chips in my book. 8gs are nice and all and so are 9gs...I just love the lines of the 7g

the 9g is slowly growing on me. I saw a blue one that was posted earlier and I kinda liked it :shock:

[luxcrusr2000]

I looked at a 9G last week, it's OK I guess, but my vote goes for the 8G. <span style='font-size:11pt;line-height:100%'>Especially the 2000 model in Patriot Red. :thumbsup:</span>

hmm, i wonder why you like the '00 model in patriot red.....hmmm??? lol

[GalantGuy96]

no....7gs are by FAR the best. out performs and looks better than the rest...... 8)

[splashdoggie]

8G looks the best w/o a doubt, although, the Auto Week Magazine show (was on last weekend) tested the 9G. They pulled a 6.7 0-60 with the Sporttronic shifter. They said it had so much torque they had trouble holding on to the steering wheel.

:shock:
