    2004 9th generation Galant released at NY

    Well G fans, here it is:

    http://www.autonews.com/page.cms?pageId=306

    (scroll down for the pics)

    Doesn't look as bad as I thought. The base 2.4l MIVEC engine is a good upgrade and the 3.8l V6 looks powerful enough to keep up with the competition.
    Mitsubishi Sapporo Turbo, the first, the best and the most beautiful car I've ever owned.

    No offense, but in my opinion, that thing looks like crap. I like the new power plants, especially the MIVEC, but damn the package looks like a dodge neon that merged with a stratus and some other shit in the middle. It's UGLY!!



    I'm also moving this post to the right topic.

    hmmm! - the same one that we had pics of earlier way back - they went the route of the shape of the new altima/accord,maxima etc etc etc....!! guess thats the new shape to come!!! oh well, i could live w/ that 3.8 liter v6!!!

    rhombus-shaped lights - damn, they should've stayed long-wise rectangular!!!

    It looks nice and sexy but I'm not feeling the Grille at all and look at the rear view mirrors the look nasty but at least they look like the fold in, the Diamante looks nice but again the grille areais not looking that good.

    I'm highly disappointed, and Mitsu says that they wann have 100,000 sales of that monstrousity...that thing looks like the Maxima in the front and a Mustang Fastback in the rear. I'm gonna stick with my 8G all the way

    I love Mitsubishi.. don't get me wrong, but what have they been smoking? To get me into that monstrosity, you would have to automatically buy me a hot bodykit and let me watch as you destroy those bumpers with a sledge hammer. Those lights are nasty and it looks like a crackhead version of the Altima. I'll stick with my 8G.

    It'll be tight. Let's be optimistic. Hell, it'll be bigger, stronger and fast than an 8G, just the front ain't as pretty. So what to do? A 8G to 9G front clip swap. I know it would be possible. If not, I'm sure there are people out there with enough $$$ to make a whole new carbon fiber front end and use S15 Silvia headlights or something.

    Well I have said it once and I will say it again Mitsubishi Motors of America just cant get it right. I mean before the cars were good looking and had no balls, now the cars are getting the HP they need and the body design is fucked up.

    I dont know maybe this 2004 Galant will grow on me, but I doubt it will.

    Jesus I could design a better looking car with dog shit and tooth picks!

    You know what after reading about the Galant its not that bad. This new Galant GTS seems like a bad ass. And compared to the revised Diamante that looks like a retard designed it, I guess the 2004 Galant aint half bad
