    By -

    I had my car for 134,000 miles when I sold it. It had no major problems except for the radiator thermostat that was replaced and other regular maintenance. I could have bought another new Galant but they lack the safety features that are available as standard equipment on other vehicles, like the side curtain airbags.

  • Poor quality and resale - 2000 Mitsubishi Galant
    By -

    It is an attractive car, handles well and I negotiated a good price since they are trying to unload the poor things off of dealer lots. This car was of poor build quality, has been recalled three times, and was returned to the dealer numerous times for various warranty problems. When I went to sell it, NOBODY WANTED IT!! The dealers offered 30% of original MSRP even though it was in excellent condition. No one would call on it in the paper, even though it was below wholesale NADA blue book. Dont buy a Mitsubishi! Spend more and buy the quality of a Honda or Toyota. In the end, youll be happier.

    Ive been driving the Galant for about 4 years now. No major repairs, so I cant complain.

  • GREAT CAR! - 2000 Mitsubishi Galant

    I love this car! I bought the ES 4 cyl model with the leather, moonroof, and spoiler. Not only does it look great, but it is a great car! The only problem Ive had is the timing belt. That was my fault. Its not a cheap fix, but its the only problem on the car with 151,000 miles!

  • Very Poor Quality Car - 2000 Mitsubishi Galant

    I feel sorry for all Gallant owners! You think you have such a great car now, wait until four or five years from now when your clear coat breaks down and Mitsubishi wont do a thing about it because it is out of warranty! Be aware and stay away from Mitsubishi if you have not purchased one yet! It is a joke! Not only did it happen to me it happened to another person in the same apartment building! Stay away from Mitsubishi! They dont believe in QUALITY!

  • Wasnt the best for me... - 2000 Mitsubishi Galant
    By -

    After buying this car I realized it was one of those cars the dealer patches up just to get off the lot. The instrument cluster had been swapped out which means the car likely had higher miles than stated. The transmission didnt shift into overdrive which I never did resolve. After a few weeks of driving it the upper rear shock mount broke. So I fixed those things and traded it in on something else.

    This vehicle handles nicely and controls uneven roads very well. People have been surpised by its comfort and roomy feeling for a car this size.

  • Excellent Car - 2000 Mitsubishi Galant
    By -

    This is my 2nd 2000 Galant. I bought the first one in 2000 with 27,000 miles on it and drove it until had 108,000. Besides brake jobs, a new alternator, and tires, it was a great car. I bought my second one last years, with 93,000 miles on it. It now has about 115,000 miles. I just replaced the brakes. I would definitely consider buying one again. You could pick up a nice Galant for cheap and really rack some miles with no heavy maintence.

    Overall, I am happy with my Galant. The V6 is a sweet engine. Smooth with decent power. Too bad you cant get it with a manual. Its a good handler. I have realized that I should have bought the LS version since it would have been cheaper than going the aftermarket route for alloys and a decent stereo. This is my first Japanese car and I am impressed with its build quality and reliability. I have owned Volkswagens and American cars previously. Other than recalls, I have not had to take my Galant in for anything. It did have warped rotors and I have replaced them with Powerslot rotors and the brakes work fantastic.
