Not bad for the money

So far this car has been pretty good. We have had a couple of issues with the car including replacing the wing as it was loose when we purchased it; incidentally, I pointed this out to the dealer (Huntington Beach Mitsubishi), but they declined to fix it as they stated nothing was wrong with it, until I took it to another Mits dealer and they fixed it----go figure. Another issue is at low speeds there is a humming sound that comes from the front end, and this "humming" is really evident when turning sharply, but again at slow speeds. The driver side power window stopped working after a year, but the warranty paid for the repair.

Can't Beat it for the Price

Compared to the Honda Accord or Toyota Camary in performance, style, quality it it is neck to neck. I think it is just a personal preference as to which one appeals to individual. But when you talk price there is no comparison, The Mitsubishi Galant is $2k to $2.5k less than the Accord or Camary. If you trade frequently, you might consider an Accor or Camary. But if you are one to keep your vehicle awhile, then the Mitshbishi Galant is a top choice.

Fun to drive but has serious problems

I bought this car brand new in Jan. ’01. It was great for the first 4-5 years. Fun to drive, great pickup and sound system. Traction control works great in the snow. I did all required maintenance at the dealership. First, the horn stopped working (sensor in the steering wheel had to be replaced in ’04). Then the hood started rusting from the inside out together with several seams in the engine compartment. The hood was replaced by Mitsubishi but I had to pay for paining and installation ($400). The struts had to be replaced at 105,000 miles together with wheel bearings and other parts of the front suspension (total cost with new tires $2,200). The car is only worth $3,500.

Solid, Reliable Automobile

Interior space somewhat limited - a 5 passenger automobile only if three of the 5 are 10 years old or less. The ride is somewhat noisy - I made the mistake of driving this car after having driven the Camry. With those two caveats, this is a wonderful automobile. After nearly three years of ownership, I have no other complaints - and I knew those two things (interior space and road noise) beforehand. It is well constructed, solid, and attractive. It has been money well spent, and has been as reliable as an anvil.

You Have to Drive it to Believe it

I found the Galant by accident. A friend offered me a deal on a '96 Galant with 110,000 miles. When it came time to buy a much newer car, I looked at the 2000 Galant and liked the way it looked. I also drove the Altima and the Mazda 626 and the Galant is by far the best. I feel Mitsubishi is trying to make a move against Honda and Toyota, so they built a car of much higher quality than the price class. If you are shopping in this class you have to drive it to believe it.
