      @@RallyLancer95 You're tired of seeing it, but it only happens with this frequency because it wasn't just that they made good stuff and then didn't...there's a fucking gulf between what they made, and what they make. The difference between 1992 and 2012 (for example) is actually shocking..like...the people who ran Mitsubishi into "we only sell cars to people with bad credit" territory need to be sent down for egregious wrongdoing. Probably best to just ignore comments because this shit is comin down the pike every time. :)

      I get being tired of seeing the same comments over and over again...trust me. I also get that a lot of former Mitsubishi enthusiasts feel burnt by them, which I also agree with. They used to be basically the Japanese Citroen, now there's no good reason to buy them other than cheap pricing.

      @@klasseact6663 In several regards. Mitsubishi used to be the forefront of technology such as turbo, AWD, 4 wheel steering, electronically adjustable suspension in both height and firmness, traction control... etc in what was essentially family cars. In top spec, models like the first gen Diamante, Galant and Montero were distinctly luxurious. Many of their engines incorporated their patented balance shafts that made them silky smooth and rev effortlessly. They also had solid build quality unlike the cheap, tinny, hollow feel of today's models. In the late 90s is when they began going cheap instead, following a low price strategy that continues to this day.

    • @foxtrot685
      @foxtrot685 4 года назад +5

      They still build good cars. 2009 Outlander was great with 0 issues over 80k miles, 2011 Outlander Sport was fantastic with 0 issues for 150k miles, 2016 Lancer was amazing with 0 issues over 67k miles, 2019 Outlander GT is doing well so far with just under 5k miles. They're very good where it actually counts, durability and reliability and all of their AWD systems were unstoppable in snow and ice. Their engines still have patented technology, like variable valve timing for both intake and exhaust valves on a SOHC engine, the first SOHC engine to do so (no one knows this it seems, Google 4J11 and 4J12). You can keep the bullcrap trinkets from the 90s, thanks.

      I think it was 1991, rented a base Galant for a week on summer vacation, they were fleet cars then, was expecting the worst because at the time I think it was rated at 102 HP, was expecting a real snoozer...walked away loving that car. It wasn't exactly speedy, but didn't matter, it was so refined and solid...just a nice car in every way. The fact that I remember it with that much detail so many years later says something.

      I had a 2003 4cyl and 2001 V6 Galant, both with high miles. The 4cyl got totaled when someone crashed into it while it was parked; I replaced it with the V6. I donated that one in 2016 when my family expanded and I had to get a dad car. Somebody got a great car, thing still started and drove, and it was quieter than my new cars since all this direct injection nowadays sounds like mini Diesel engines at idle. I miss my Galants.

      The vr4 was a vastly different and more modern car, not that this one was old far from it, it just highlights how far ahead of its time the vr4 was.
      Suspension was multilink rear on the vr4 vs torsion beam on the regular Galant, Abs was four wheel independent, and the vr4 had 4 wheel steering as well as a more sophisticated torque vectoring system. The vr4s chassis was also heavily stiffened and more exclusive manufacturing techniques, like special spot welds, were used.

    Galant was an underrated car, and it should have received more credit than it did. Get rid of the manual transmission and I’d take it. I don’t know why Motorweek kept testing manual transmissions over automatics, especially since most Americans drive automatic…

    That EPA mileage is very inaccurate. I would average close to 30mpg on the highway in my Galant VR4. And that was with a bigger turbo and injectors. Hell, my DSMs would get over 30mpg highway.

    1990 to 1992 N/A Galant GSX is Very I mean Very hard to Found now, DSM guy say there are more Galant VR4's on the Road Than Galant GSX's, I own a 91 Galant GSX, Perfect in the Snow but sucks at low end power and Gas mileage,

    That braking distance is really impressive 60-0 in 106 feet. For comparison a 2019 Range Rover SVAutobiography takes 118 ft , 2019 Tesla model 3 123 feet, 2020 Nissan versa 124 ft. 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible 90 ft. I guess cars are too heavy , i did pick random cars 60-0 distance

    These are so rare knew couple people had a Galant that was in good shape, they seemed like fun cars back in the day a car just wanted to have some fun in, Mitsubishi now makes boring cars in the early 90s to mid 2000s they made some nice cars my favorite was Montero Sport that was a nice SUV and Eclipse, what happened Mitsubishi?

    Comparing it to a Camry all track however he failed to mention that most Camry all tracks if they have it rusted away are still on the road today almost 30 years later while you were lucky If the golan Survived longer then the loan to buy it did. Mitsubishi's All head Val seal and head gasket issues. It was common for the mitzubishi golant, mitsubishi eclipse, montero, Mirage, And especially the extra awful Precs Which was just a re badged Hyundai excelTo start burning oil at around 60K miles
