It´s funny if i open both wiki´s side-by-side.... to see what engines run at the european market and what at the american market. So the early Galants where in Europe equipped with bigger engines. My 5G for example runs with 2,4 L 4G64 since 1984, that is in US/AUS totally unknown...

The first Galant in the US to actually be called a Galant was the 5G Galant Sigma, which came with the 6G72 12v V6. Earlier gens were sold via Dodge/Chrysler as the Colt/Challenger/Sapporo.
The 1988 Galant Sigma was renamed to just Sigma in 1990 up to 1991, where it was replaced by the Diamante. The 5G was pretty advanced for its time, and had lots of gadgets to rival the 8G! (Adjustable power steering from normal to sport, available electronically controlled air suspension with adjustable ride stiffness and height, fully automatic climate control with optical sensors). It was pretty much touted as a luxury car.

mitsu has always been a euro desinged car. and a powerlfull jap enterprise. from making tvs their own electronics, and part plus electronics for all other jap companies. and korea and in the 90's the dreaded chrysler muts.
and the galant has always been decades before its time and led to the great mistus we see today like the evo, the 3000gt whcich is almost forgoten, and its bigger cousin the diamante.
its a shame for the car that started it all that its been left behind in the us market.
i mean scrapping the GS plans after just under 1.5 years in prodution, thy shoulda finished it of by turboing the damn thing and selling it. but no the eclipse and its 2door sport car competition left it behind.
its the car that inspired the rest of the world.
look under the hood of any 94 under import jap car and u see mitsubishi everywhere.
cmon the starion even had a built in radar detector .
