GDIzen Neutral Newbie November 13, 2003 Share November 13, 2003 Mitsubishi shows new Galant, Lancer Sportback, and Diamante New York, New York - Mitsubishi showed a completely redesigned 2004 Mitsubishi Galant, the new-for-North America Lancer Sportback, and its remodeled Diamante flagship sedan. Mitsubishi's all-new Galant now offers a 3.8-litre V6 engine that leads the class in displacement, a robust and highly rigid new unibody structure and more than 100 cu. ft. of interior passenger room. At more than 190-inches in length and 72.4-inches in width the 2004 Galant is much bigger. The wheelbase has grown to 108.3-inches. The standard tires have been pumped up to 16-inches. The base 2.4-liter Mitsubishi engine jumps to 160 horsepower, and the available 3.8-litre V6 cranks out 230 horsepower and 250 lb. ft. of torque. Inside, dimensions expand in every direction. Cabin width provides more than 57-inches of shoulder room, while 37-inches of rear legroom afford rear passengers ample comfort. As with the previous Galant, the model line-up includes four distinct trim lines, with missions ranging from expressive family sedan to exhilarating sport sedan. Following the Endeavor sport utility vehicle, Galant is the second new vehicle in Mitsubishi Motors' Project America series. The all-new Galant was specifically designed in California, engineered in Michigan and Japan, and assembled in Illinois to meet the specific needs and high expectations of American drivers. Hope we don't get this version... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turismo Neutral Newbie November 13, 2003 Share November 13, 2003 I think Mit is revamping all their model to the "nosey" look. They have done that to Evo VIII, Colt, Grandis, and now Galant .... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The front all resemble the same: Lancer, Grandis, Evo, Colt, now Galant... Looks ugly man... So far think the Grandis has the look Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superseven Neutral Newbie November 13, 2003 Share November 13, 2003 Oh no... share your sentiments exactly... The front of the car looks a bit deformed (either the headlights too big for the front grille or the front grille too small for the headlights) unlike the current model galant which looks way fierce and agressive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzz Neutral Newbie November 13, 2003 Share November 13, 2003 Mitsubishi totally blew it with this one, how do they expect to compete with Camry, Accord (US & JDM), Legacy, Cefiro, and all the rest. They have a death wish or what. Who knows maybe Americans might like it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
