Overview & Reviews

For 2006, the Mitsubishi Galant receives only minor updates. There are new wheel designs, some interior trim refinements, standard antilock brakes for the ES trim and a new tire-pressure monitoring system for ES, LS and GTS trim levels (when fitted with alloy wheels).

• Excellent balance between ride quality and handling, strong V6, stylish and comfortable cabin, high crash test scores, superb Infinity sound system.

• No manual transmission or rear-occupant side airbags, some interior materials feel cheap, not enough in-cabin storage, no folding rear seat.

  Great value for my buck - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By sirvince - May 15 - 2:56 am

  I just changed jobs and had to give up my company car sooner then I thought and bought this car without even test driving it from a dealer. I just had a good feeling about the car..Now that I own it I just love it.. Even with the 98,000 miles on it I could tell it was well cared for. Not even one door dig on it so I know the last person watched were they parked it to avoid door digs. Why would someone do all that and not care for the car..Right? I was sad to hear that this car will be dropped after 2012. Just when I find a car I like its discontinued. Sure a Honda or Toyota is a higher rated car but also a higher price..In these hard times the Galant offered me great value for my dollar

  Good Car for the Money - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Motherof two - December 4 - 8:03 pm

  I looked at the Galant on a whim, while passing a dealer. I test drove the car and it felt very comfortable. I liked the style and the size (I did not want something too small) So far I am happy with it. I think it far exceeds the handling of the Honda Accord I test drove and is much more comfortable. I have not had any "glare" from the metal plate near the radio! I dont know what all the hype is about that. The only thing it needs is a lighted shift console. Other than that I have no complaints yet!

  I have not had any problems with my 2006 Mitsubishi Galant ES so far. It idles a little low for my tastes, at about 500 rpm though. 750 rpm would "feel" more stable. Also, it will not take you long to dislike the silver trim around the radio/heater console. It shows a very bad reflection in your windshield. It seems like I constantly am staring at this reflection in my windshield, does anyone else notice this?

  Solid Sedan - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By T. Miller - February 22 - 8:43 am

  So far I have put 8,500 miles on my 2006 Mitsubishi Galant GTS V6 and have had not problems. It gives great, responsive power and has a nice balance of comfort and road feel. It is the roomiest vehicle in its class, comes with a solid warranty, and an outstanding sound system. Its handling is a good balance between comfort vs. road feel, thought the car is not meant to be pushed to hard (its a sedan - doesnt take to sliding around corners well!). The abundance of torque and power make it a very comfortable car to be driven, its hard to keep below 80 mph. Its clear guages, and autoshift provide some additional "enthusiast" feel. This is a very pleasant, reliable car - I look forward to driving it each day. What more can you ask?

  I love the way this car handles. I needed a car that was more gas friendly for my job and am very satisfied. I have had Mitsubishi cars for 12 years and have never been disappointed.

  Sexy Red Galant - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Lwilliams - June 23 - 4:26 pm

  I purchased a 2006 Black Mitsubishi Galant ES in January. The car was very nice but was lacking something. One month after I purchased the 2006 Galant ES, Mitsubishi introduced the 2006 Special Edition Galant. A beautiful car, everything I wanted in the Galant: style, substance, and leather seats. The SE was the type of car I was supposed to have, so I got. Love every minute of it.

  Excellent - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By paul - February 28 - 3:10 pm

  Ive owned this car for five days and have nothing but good things to say about it. it is very fun to drive also comfy. The interior room is tremendous. It has lots of leg room in front and back. Plus it can get out of its own way at highway speeds.

  This is my fourth Galant and this is the best of them all. I like the interior with the information center. The exterior is very nice as well. I really like the tail lights.

  One Fine Sedan - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Gary T. - June 5 - 4:03 pm

  A week ago I purchased a 2006 Galant GTS V6 and I am loving every minute Im in it. I have only tallied 400 miles in it so far, but I am highly impressed. It has fast acceleration, quick turning, holds the road through curves, and turns like shes on rails. There is plently of room inside to give four adults plenty of room. A few improvents that I would suggest would be to heat the exterior mirrors and upgrade the interior rear mirror with the autodimming feature that it available on Mitsubishis higher end SUVs. Also, the passager side seat needs to be upgraded to a high-end power seat. Overall this is a very reliable and enjoyable car to drive.
