what about the new Galant?

Postby root on Tue Sep 26, 2006 11:41 pm

We've heard a lot about the Camry, but what do you guys think of the new Mitsubishi Galant?

Looks wise it looks pretty neat. 170 bhp on a 2.4 liter engine.

Exterior looks fine.
Interior is a HUGE improvement over the puny Galant it replaces.
Engine is average, but I don't think buyers in its class arent exactly looking for speed.
Hope it sells. They brought it to the U.A.E a little TOO late.

competitive segment

Its definitely a very competitive segment they are selling this to with Camrys, Altimas, Accords, Mazda6s all providing good alternatives.

Do you know what the price is? Maybe that'll be their edge.

somehow it just doesnt appeal to me

I cant put my finger on it - but it just isnt what i would be looking for. Id rather go for an Altima or Accord, only thing that might appeal is the price..... :?

Looks real Boring!! :roll: Da previous generation looked much better and seemed more durable than the new one... Even da new Hyundai Elantra looks much better.
