I love the Car https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...lt/biggrin.gif
The Rims and the Rear End are the best attributes IMHO....
I like the whole car too thought https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...lt/biggrin.gif
iI can still see some 8g in it! look at the rear window and side view of the class how it flows.
so is that replacing the gtz?
I'll keep my supercharged 8G over that. The new ones look like a Saturn Ion and a Nissan Altima had sex and thats what popped out.
I like that rear IMO but that front end has just got to go. I wonder what we can do about a new body kit for it. I just can't see a EVO CF hood on that. I like the performance numbers and I am just wondering if there is a future in maybe a engine swap from a 8G to a 9G and turbo for it. Does anyone know if this car will share the same engine as say the Eclipse. I don't see any way this car will get any kind of support in the aftermarket performance department if it doesn't. We lucked out with the 8G on that IMO.
Indeed the 04 Galant will have the same engines as the 05 Eclipse, I am about 99% sure of it. The V-6 version is the same engine in the Endeavor.
Add the Kia Spectra for a threesome https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/laugh.gifQuote:

Looks better than the new Diamante tho!
Jeez that thing is ugly!
I think the Galant in Mitsu's eyes is supppose to compete in the family car market, So the accord, Maxima and camery and so on, so They aren't thinking perfromance they thinking your parents or some of you that have kids, no offense, if you read, it's what they are thinking, so there isn't a lot of performance minded engineering here.
Then again, I drive a 3gen Eclipse so what do I know.
looks like a g35
My dad owns a 2004 Maxima (black) and there is no fricking way that I'm goona get a car that looks like my old man's. If DSM decides to make it a 4-door family "sport" sedan, just stick with the 8g and just modify its performance capabilities. https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...lt/biggrin.gif
I agree with Vegas Matt Ill keep my Supercharged 8G, and when the time comes to get a new car it wont be a Galant. I mean its growing on me the car in GTS form is not bad but the front is still shitty looking.
Improvement : Downfall
The interior is hot: But the steering wheel is ugly
The projector lights are hot: The front end is ugly
Its got 3.8 Liters: Still ony putting out 230 and its heavier???
So is the car really any quicker?
They improved on everything we bitched about the 8G not having and they just fucked up in the department nobody was complaining about and thats the looks!!!!!!
Mitsubishi just cant get it right :roll:
PS what the fuck is up with the 2004 Diamante thats the biggest piece of shit!! https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/laugh.gif All they did was put a new front end on the old car and there trying to call it something new!!! Way to cut corners Mitsubishi
https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/laugh.gif The Diamante VRX had so much potential too :cry:
Its only a matter of time for they kill that car from the line-up beause nobody is buying it!!!!
i'll give you a KHO answer, "if it was a girl, i would put a paperbag on the front and fuck her :twisted: "
THAT is an ugly car. :decline:
If I wanted a Maxima, I'd buy a Maxima.
One of the reasons I considered and bought a 8G Galant
was that it didn't look like a camry or accord.
(Although, the 8G Galant bears a passing resemblance to a BMW
5 series or a 845).
Guess I'd better save my beer money toward the Rippmods SDS
kit or the '05 Mustang because I won't be buying the 9G.
how much bigger is the new galant? i can definitely see JGTC style mods and that would be a dream. imagine instead of a 350Z, the 9G galant. looks like it would pass as a JGTC sedan! $$$
I think the tails are great, but yeah they made it look ALOT like an altima, and I will pass......
:decline: :decline:
UGLY, UGLY!
I agree with GalantT3. Mitsubishi cant get things right since they got rid of the 2G eclipses.
And for heaven sakes, stop making those ugly-ass-altezza type tail lights. :evil: :evil:
I like everything about the car. I think its bad ass,.....like the 8g when I get my hands on a 9g I will pioneer moding that as well,......hehe,..some things will never change..I have always loved all generation galants,...my love for Galants is true blue and unwaivering....I am not a here today gone tomorrow type guy. I am in for the long haul.
the front end reminds me almost of a cadillac CTS...what are we all turning gray? the 8g has such an aggressive look to it...which one of the reasons it caught my eye...and come on? almost another liter and still not hangin with the maximas 265hp? lets go mitsu...im 40 minutes from where the things are built...i should go knock on their door and lay down the law lol :twisted:
i think it looks like a caddy cts and nissan altima had sex and gave birth to an ugly child.
seems like the majority is thumbs down!!! one word!!! FUGLY!!!!!!! :?
