I bought the Mitsubishi Galant from a family member a few months ago and absolutely adore it. It is a great starter car for a budding family. Starting with the exterior, it is a nice bronzed color and has a sleek body for a car that is so large and spacious on the inside. Fuel efficiency leaves something to be desired, but I find that the large tank evens out in terms of time spent pumping gas, though I am spending more money. The trunk can accommodate an entire bookshelf in the back and still be able to fit more things. Which brings me to the interior. The seats are comfortable, and you have plenty of leg room, even if the person driving pushes their seat all the way back. We use the Galant as a family car, it easily accommodates my son's massive car seat without sacrificing his safet... (more)
Story
We got to use the Galant at the drive in in Wichita Falls and absolutely loved it. The windshield was large enough that we could see the entire screen and be totally comfortable.
Pros
There are several pros to list with this car. The biggest for me would be space. The inside of the car is so spacious that it allows for long trips to be pleasant. It has great A/C, and the vents are placed so that the backseat gets great air as well.
Cons
Cons for this car would be the stereo system. You cannot use an aux cord nor can you change the face plate to suit one without being referred to a mechanic. Gas mileage leaves something to be desired as does the length of the car.

2009 Mitsubishi Galant - It is reliable with getting to and from work and traveling.

I really love the size. It easily holds five people comfortably and has several drink holders in the front and back. The only downside is the interior, which is a cream color and not a good idea with small children stains easily and hard to get out very noticeable. Also, it is not fuel efficient. It takes a lot of gas and the gas burns quick. Overall aside of the gas concern, I have had no major problems, and it has been a reliable vehicle.
Story
Driving through the mountains on a narrow winding road. As you are going uphill and downhill, there are no guardrails so it feels like you are going to drive right off the cliff, which is quite scary but fun at the same time.
Pros
Color, trim, space both inside and trunk. My favorite feature is the color door panel says "gold," paperwork says "brown." It's a unique color that is not commonly seen on vehicles.
Cons
Not gas friendly. I drive ten miles from and to work daily six days a week. It costs me $50 every two weeks. I have had the vehicle inspected and cleaned, the problem still remains. Also, the sensor lights will not go off, and cruise control does not work since I purchased it. Not enough power have to put the pedal to the floor if heat/ac are turned on to get the car to go to 60 mph.
