Well my next trade will definetely not be a Galant it'll either be a BMW or IS300, most likely a 3 series BMW. I'm moving the F up.

**GalantT3** · 08-02-2002, 12:27 PM

Either Bmw or Audi

Tiller · 08-02-2002, 12:29 PM

yeah, i agree my next car is NOT going to be a Galant... I don't care what it looks like....

BMW, MB, Audi here I come... I still would love to have a Lincoln LS...

**GalantT3** · 08-02-2002, 12:48 PM

Yeah the Lincoln LS!! Now thats a hot car my uncle has the v8!!! Thats what I was hoping the new Galant would be similar too style and shape wise! We probably would have gotten that Tawian Galant the Galant Jazz for a 2004 car but of course Mitsubishi Motors of America decides oh no were not going to rely on modified japanese versions will make our own Galant, lol what big hunk of shit that turned out to be. Once they dont sell any new Galants they will realize american designers cant do shit right and we will get the Galant Jazz!!! But by then I will have moved on to another car company that can actually do shit right. Audi and Bmw are just two of the best in terms of styling and perfomance, I was a fool to think Mitsubishi would do anything good with the 2004 Galant instead the american customer gets the SHAFT yet again. I cant imagine us ever getting a VR4 Galant especially the way that 2004 Galant looks.

What if that hunk off shit got 240 hp?? I just finished reading motortrend, and it says that 2003 Accord sedan with, get this, 5 speed AUTO goes 0-60 in like 6.6 seconds. Oh boy, can you say bye bye Mustang GT??

What do you think there Tiller?

And why does everyone always want to "upgrade" to Audi and BMW that just makes me sick of those damn companies even more. When i move up its to Ferrari.

**GalantT3** · 08-02-2002, 02:22 PM

I like Mitsubishi always have and always will but it pisses me off when they produce low quality cheap looking shit when I know they are capable of being the best japanese car company in america. But all they do is continue to play follow the leader everytime. Its time for them to stop being copy cats and stand out from the crowd and turn out high quality stuff.

PS its so obvious Honda copied Mercedes on the rear taillights what are you blind!

Guys,

You have yet to see the entire actual car. All you saw was a car wrapped up in covers. They may even decide to change the car again before its release date you never know. But you also never know exactly what it looks like until it is released. So lets give Mitsubishi a break and when it does finally become released with actual pics we can bitch or brag about it then. For now lets just wait and see.

c'mon man... where is the similarity...?

The Accord lamps both end in points.. are a basically a triangle...

The Benz has no points anywhere... even the clear sections are NOTHING alike...

You guys could prolly sell ice to an Eskimo...[size=18]<span style='color:red'> they aren't even close...!</span>

sheefo2k · 08-03-2002, 02:23 AM

i think theres a big simlairty, and also the tail lights on the honda are more like the new S class, and the new C-class

but hunduhh's are cheating big time ...

and about the nwe galant. i can't make any decision on weather to heat it or ilke it.. hmm its still spyshots

**T.S.** · 08-03-2002, 04:59 AM

That spy photo look an awful lot like that fugly silver thing in this pic

**GalantT3** · 08-03-2002, 07:05 AM

THATS THE FUCKING NEW GALANT UP ABOVE THE SILVER ONE, look at the lights from the spy shot and the lights on that car, where did you get that picture, damn, I bet you any amount of money that silver car is new Galant and the car next to it is the lancer were gonna get, I like the lancer it looks hot!!! but the Galant my god!!!

Big H Killa · 08-03-2002, 07:16 AM

How can you tell if you like the car or not if you only see like maybe a quarter of the front of the car. You guys haven't seen the inside or the back or the sides.

I guess that photo was from a recent auto show and cameras were not allowed so thats why the pic kinda sux, dunno if thats the galant for sure, but those headlights and front shape sure look the same as the spy photo atleast, and yeah that is supposed to be the u.s. evo in the yellow

Well from my view it looks too big to be a lancer or mirage and too small to be a diamante, doubt they would display their worst selling car on a platform anyway and its definatly not a montero or eclipse, so by process of elimination what does that leave us with?

**!BONG!** · 08-03-2002, 08:55 AM

There's also a very slim chance that there could be more than one working design for the 9g as well. And another thing, is that there is way too many negative people around here. It's one thing to be passionate about something, but it's another to bash any "new" or "different" item that comes up. Give it some time peeps.

Gilhuly · 08-03-2002, 09:02 AM

The 8G didn't come raging up from the back of the pack in sales because they went for a generic looking design. The 99-00 Galant has a very aggressive posture and forward leaning wedge. I don't know what sales look like for Galants, but I'll bet you they spiked in 2000. The 02 looks like a f___ing Pontiac, and it blunts the tip of the wedge too much. If I bought a current one, I'd have to get rid of that nose. People bought the Galant (V6)because it was up to or superior to the Accord V6, the Maxima of 99 or the Camry and was markedly less expensive and the statement it made was, "yeah, I've taken on some responsibilities, but I still get laid once in a while". I think designers have concluded that Americans want bland, tylenols on wheels since we've been buying them en masse. They fail to recognize that that is pretty much all we've been offered. How does a culture as conservative as Japan's get such great cars?

How do you guys know if its not maybe another Mitsubishi that they are going to introduce to the States in the future. You forget that there are about 4-5 other models of Mitsu's that we do not get to see at all. So by process of elimination it may or may not be the Galant, we don't know!!! Thats the whole point we don't know!!! I mean does it fricken say GALANT in big words on the windshield??!! NO!!! It could be the Diamante for all we know, just because its not as big or that, maybe they decided to downsize the Diamante. Who knows?? And who cares?? I can't believe that soo many people are angered and disgusted at this supposed new "galant". You have yours now so that is that. Drive what you have and do what you want to your car now and talk about that here on the forums, and when it comes time to see the new Galant when it is released we will see it and then offer are feedback. But we don't know shit and don't know if that is the new Galant or not. And just by looking at the headlights in the spy photo and the car show photo doesn't do anything either. There could be more Mitsu's with the same headlights. Look at the brand new 2003 Dodge Viper whos headlights are newly designed, well those same headlights are also on the 2004 Dodge Charger (which will be replacing the Intrepid). So cars do share the same headlights. So my point is lets quit the whining and bitching about what the car looks like and just forget it and wait until the new Galant actually comes out and then voice our opinions.

Sorry but thats my two cents!!!!
