2009 Mitsubishi Galant




A new front, rear lights aren't really news.
They also claim to have "revised" the interior.

I think , although unpopular, the Galant wasn't a bad looking car.
Now it just looks like a desperate visual mess.

"desperate visual mess."

Indeed, this car looks like it was stuck in a timewarp from styling ideals of years ago. Perhaps this would have made a good 2001 Galant.

This should have been done in 2007. This design better only stay around for two years. Three and beyond, this will be the most stale loaf of bread in the bunch.

The back looks like the new Sebring.

looks like an old Nissan Altima.

Hey! at least the rear end looks better put together, than the new Accord.

I don't know for some reason I just hate the design of the Accord, damn! How could Honda could have screwed up so bad.

Old Altima front end; Chrysler Sebring rear.

I kind of feel sorry for Mitsubishi.

Feel sorry for them? That company was doing lots of bad stuff back in japan. I think they made their own bed.

it looks better than the last one. anyway, if the new lancer is at all telling, the next galant should look a lot better than this

on the flipside, i sat inside the revised version at an auto show, and mitsubishi did in fact revise the interior. there are less screws visible and higher-quality plastics, notably on the dashboard.

i would never buy one though. gotta have that manual transmission, i'll probably wait for the diesel accord to show up

I, too, feel sorry for Mitsubishi. This isn't going to help them.

I don't know why everyone is bashing the new Accord, I for one think it looks great. Sales in my area are very strong and I see a bunch of new Accords running around.

There is a 2004 modified version of the Galant made by CMC (Taiwan) : the Grunder !!!

If you want to see this taiwanese modified galant some years ago (front and back modification)
go to this links in English:

The front is more in touch with the 2003 Lancer
