2001 Mitsubishi Galant DE review from North America
"Sexy car, excellent quality!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've had my Galant for 3 years now, and other than routine maintenance (oil changes, tires, brakes) I've had only one issue with this car. Two weeks ago, at 88,000 miles, my alternator went out.
General comments?
This car is very reliable, comfortable, and is very responsive considering it's a four cylinder.
The Galant is very spacious inside, more in the front than the rear.
The interior attributes of the car pre-date the stylish features of the exterior. But even still, the interior is adequate for everyday use and is even good enough for making long trips.
The Galant has the reliability and quality of a Honda Accord or Toyota Camry, but for much less cost.
I really enjoy my car and when I pay it off (almost there) I'm going to keep it and buy a new Galant, preferably a silver 2008 Mitsubishi Galant Ralliart.
