1994 Mitsubishi Galant LS review from North America

~Nothing major has gone wrong; however, sometimes normal maintenance can get expensive.

~Needed new timing belt at 90,000.

~CV Joints starting to make noise.

~Engine has a "dead" spot between 2,400 and 3,000rpm.

~Driver's window does not automatically go up. Sometimes you have to assist it.

~The seal on the rear driver's door has detached and hangs when door is opened.

~Cup-holder comes out of dash entirely and sometimes gets stuck if you push it in all the way.

The '94 Galant LS is a great car for the price used. I probably would not buy one new, as they're about $28,000.

Car handles well and is fairly speedy for a little 4-banger.

Gas mileage isn't all that great, but that's something I can deal with.

Interior held up well for age (almost 10 years).

Loaded with options (my favorite is the sun- and moonroof)

Does well in rain and snow.

Unfortunately about 4 months ago I got hit in the rear-end on the driver's side by an older car. My Galant got virtually totaled, but the other car sustained minor damages. I still drive my baby, but now the trunk leaks, the taillight is busted and the back end is bent up. A shame the insurance denied my claim. The good out of all that: she still drives like new!
