Pros: "Standard features that you pay extra on other cars"

Cons: "Low trade in value"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 8

"I do regular oil changes and gas mileage has been as stated. I have had the front pads and rotors replaced. This is roomy enough for my 5'11 foot son to sit in the rear with plenty of room.Have been on numerous trips some close to 700 miles and still do 29 to 30mpg with luggage and 4 people. The only con is I did not buy an extended warranty. The monitor for tne Navigation and info center has gone out. The dealer said it only has a 3yr 36k warranty on the radio and nav system."

Pros: "fun to drive, lots of gadgets"

Cons: "rides rough, road noise, noisy engine"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"pro's great cornering, good pick up for a fully loaded 4 cyl, seats are hard but after a 4 hr trip, walked away with no pain ( have a arthritis problem ) have a lot of favorable comments about the paint, wheels and tires. Cons most cars have road noise but this car has ROAD NOISE someone at the mailbox asked if this car has a diesel engine because of the excessive noie. The springs are not forgiving, you feel every bump in the road however the pros outway the cons for me and will buy another one when the time comes"

Cons: "Stereo system is just OK"

"After one year of commuting and seeing all the vehicles around me, I grew bored seeing the popular brands...they were everywhere! I love how easy and comfortable it glides over the interstate. I spend 45+ hours a month commuting. Mitsubishi is making it a pleasure! Hurry to purchase as 2012 is last year they will produce under this name. No worries you will be out of fashion in a 2013!"

Pros: "drive & handling. good pick up for a 4 cylinder,"

Cons: "sound system"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 8

"i got my galant because i needed something asap with low miles, and i HAD to have leather and a sunroof. expecting to pay a lot more than i did i came across the galant, never had i thought about owning a mitsubishi after the test drive i loved the car. SO MUCH room on the inside, its cute on the outside and it drives and handles so well. the leather seats are awesome and good quality. sunroof is great too. wish it had heated seats but i will survive. only thing that could have been better was the sound system but i put an after-market system in which is perfect."
