My neighbour down the street had an old Plymouth Breeze. Then he traded it in for a Kia Sephia. Then he traded that in for a Mitsu Galant.... There's a sucker born every minute  |

It's funny - I think Mistu thought this American designed 'style' would be the shiznaught, but it's not. The rear always confuses me with the Dodge Charger too. That steering wheel is in itself.
I wouldn't be paying anywhere near what Mitsu wants for this thing when there's other more credible entries in this segment. At least it's on the large size tho. |

the 2006 Mitsubishi Galant is virtually unknown in the mid-size family sedan class in Canada.
YOU'D THINK SO! Living in a major city with no damn dealership within 100km what do you expect. |

I agree ... but an EVO would end up in the garage since they're not street legal and never will be. |

Mr. Wilson,
Just a few technical questions from Montreal.
- What compression ratio is the Galant running to necessitate Premium fuel?
- The fuel comsumption should be way less if it is above 11:1.
- Are they still using timing belts? If so, shame on them.
Comment. I recently went to try out the 2006 Lancer Ralliart and was not impressed with the RPM @ 100km/h. The car has 163hp/-163ft/lb and revving @ 2500 rpm. That car has way more than enough torque to do 2000 rpm @ 100km/h, and the fuel consumption would be a bit lower. I am still waiting for them to convert to a chain timing system, as the technology is "silent" enough these days.
- Why is Mitz. dragging their feet? they have to be about 2-4 years behind the other guys. They should spend a little less time at WRC. Thats all for now.

Umm did anyone notice the license plate? Please forgive my ignorance, but is there a Vancouver in Ontario or did they just ship it there from Vancouver BC? Doesn't make sense if they did? Just thought it was a slightly humorous observation...maybe. |

My guess........
Greg test drove and wrote the article in Vancouver, but stock photos were used on CanadianDriver based in Ottawa. |
