Overview & Reviews

The Mitsubishi Galant's GTS trim level is dropped for 2008 and its equipment spread out to the other trim levels. The four-cylinder SE model has been dropped as well. There are now only two engines available: the base four-cylinder and the Ralliart's larger V6.

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

  Great car, great value - 2008 Mitsubishi Galant
  By bosox1001 - October 29 - 5:55 am

  I purchased mine with about 42k miles on it and a year later have it approaching 61k. Its a great car that is both practical for commuting AND fun to drive! As far as value within class, it blows away anything Honda can offer. Dont be fooled by it only being a 4 cylinder 4 speed automatic and think it has a weak engine. It gets a surprising amount of power for its engine size, but since its not a 3L V6, it gets very respectable gas mileage. Plus the tank is huge, I can get around 420+ miles per tank. The trunk is also HUGE, as I do a lot of tailgating and it can fit multiple fold-up tables, grills, wood, coolers, with room to spare. Overall, its a very great value.

  Hope it lasts as long as my Explorer! - 2008 Mitsubishi Galant
  By jinsan - February 16 - 4:50 pm

  I recently purchased my 08 Galant with 30k miles and have now put 2k on it. I just hope that it lasts as long as my 02 Explorer (152k trouble free miles). I drive 20k miles per year, mostly commuting to work and 95% highway. So far, I must say that this car rides and handles well...has plenty of power and is VERY quiet! I am pleasantly surprised with Mitsus build quality and hope to drive this car for 150k+ miles! Waiting to see how it handles in the snow!!!

  never fails - 2008 Mitsubishi Galant
  By jtho249 - May 28 - 7:43 am

  I have had my Galant for over two years and 40,000 miles. Ive taken it on long trips and I obviously drive it every day. it is easy to drive. I have not had one issue mechanically. dont get the seats wet. the cloth they used will show a ring just from water. I have had to steam clean the seats to get the marks out. this car looks good and I will always recommend it to friends. as in most cases. treat your car well and it will treat you well.

  Love my Galant - 2008 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Jerry - May 27 - 10:30 am

  Looked at the competition and felt the quality and pricing on this beauty was fair. I bought a nice base model and had leather seats installed. Still feel great tooling around in my Mitsubishi. Its a sporty, yet sensible commuter family sedan. Getting about 27 mpg avg. AC good, roomy interior, quiet ride. Have had a couple of trim retainers pop loose but not an issue.

  An Awesome Car! - 2008 Mitsubishi Galant
  By Happy Mitsu Customer - December 18 - 7:06 pm

  The 2008 Mitsubishi Gallant Ralliart is so much more car than I ever expected. Looked at Nissan Altima, Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, VW Passat and Mazda 6 and this car blows them all away. The navigation system is awesome and the stereo is one of the best I have ever heard! Not to mention this car is FAST!

  I love my Galant. Its stylish, nice looking interior. Great on gas. Had it for over 2 years now and still love driving it! I usually get sick of cars quickly, not this one, not yet anyway.

  By master - July 15 - 7:50 pm

  One of the best cars driven in the mid luxury car segment. Ample leg room, good 4 side visibility. Stable.

  Just Right - 2008 Mitsubishi Galant
  By William Hernandez - April 1 - 9:23 pm

  Engine perfomance is great. I have ES model with a 2.4 and it has plenty of guts. Its smoothness on the road makes you forget how fast you may be driving. This cost me a speeding ticket the first week I bought the car. I started using the steering wheel mounted cruise control feature to avoid any more tickets. It handles steady and well around curves. The 4 speed Sportstronic transmission gives me the option to change to a clutchless shifting mode for either a fast take off when necessary or to avoid heating breaks on down hills. I have many compliments from friends on its appearance. To say the least it has a conservative and elegant but yet sporty look. Perfect for my age bracket.
