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.

  Quick, sporty, more bang for your buck. - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Kaarst - November 20 - 3:43 pm

  I bought this car with 3,000 test drive miles on it. It was brand new. Almost a year later - it still drives like new. Quick off the line, quick stops, it hugs the road through cornering. It has the look and feel of a European driving machine. "Poor mans BMW" is what I call it.

  My First Mitsubishi - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Myprotoge - September 16 - 7:20 am

  This is my first Mitsubishi vehicle. So far I must say, I am very pleased with my 2006 Galant. The four cylinder engine is quite peppy. The automatic transmission (my very first automatic) is very smooth. Its accelerations is crisp. The ride is awesome, it corners well, and handle bumps effortlessly.

  Awesome Car - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By AdamG - August 26 - 5:43 pm

  I purchased this car in Feb. of 2006. I also got the protection options on it. I love this machine. It handles great, with tremendous acceleration, and outstanding options. The car has tremendous room, agile handling, and the blue lights inside make this vehicle very sharp. I would recommend this car to anyone. The sound system works great even with my satellite readio hooked up to it. The only suggestion would be to have dual power seats up front and back seats that lay down. This is an excellent car to drive and own overall. Great job to the employess that came up with this awesome car. To answer the guys comment on 2/1/06 it does come with heated mirrors on the exterior.

  I Purchased Used - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Jason Bittner - August 9 - 9:30 pm

  I purchased this car used. It was a one owner lease and well taken care of. I never anticipated buying a Galant. I was in the market for a Camry or Accord. The value of this vehicle is great. I bought a 4 year old car with a warranty, Honda or Toyota couldnt come close. I have now owned this car for one week and absolutely love driving it.

  A Very Decent Automobile! - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Gerald Zymet - July 15 - 2:10 pm

  This was my second purchase of a Mitsubishi Galant GTS and probably my last. Mitsubishi has poor quality control as both vehicles had major factory defects at under 1,000 miles. The car does handle and drive very well, though the engine does give you some wallop when you accelerate.

  New Car, Lovin It - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By del98 - October 14 - 7:00 am

  The 2006 Mitsubishi Galant is a breath of fresh air. It is comfortable, spacious, fun to drive, has more pick up than I had anticcipated, has great looks, and gets good gas mileage. It is a family car with a sporty feel.

  Galant Lover - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Joe & Nayra - July 10 - 9:00 am

  This is the second Galant weve owned. The first one was a 2003 model. We bought it used with 140,000 miles on it and it drove very good for three years. With that type of dependability we decided to go for another one. The 2006 model we just bought has 60,000 miles on it but drives great and it looks like new inside out!

  Glad I Found This Car! - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Anna L - January 28 - 2:53 am

  I bought my car after trading in my horrific 05 Toyota Highlander. I was sure I was going to buy either a Ford Fusion or Honda Accord (never another Toyota). There happened to be a Mitsubishi dealer next to the Honda dealer, so I stopped in. I immediately fell in love with the looks of the Galant SE. I test drove it and also loved the comfort, handling, acceleration, and quality/design of the interior. Its very sporty compared to the Accord, and is every bit as good in quality. Also, its union made in the US by the UAW. This is important to our family. This car has top notch safety and reliability records, and the longest warranty in the market. The Fusions made in Mexico and wasnt as nice.

  Driven To Thrill! - 2006 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Eric M - December 1 - 11:20 am

  I purchased the car a few weeks ago, after checking out many others, it was between this and the Honda Civic LX sedan. I went with the Galant because I liked the exterior look better, it felt more solid on the road, its acceleration is better, and the warranty is awesome. Its been a thrill to drive so far! One minor problem is the glove box does not close quite flush on the left side and the service manager is telling me its normal. Of the twenty other various trims on the lot, not one is as out of whack as mine. Ill see if the GSM takes care of it, and I wont die if they dont, but expect better on a $20,000 car. Also, the silver console does reflect in the windshield, but it does not bother or distract me.
