MY one friend i think i told u totaled his 07 ralli art galant like 2 months ago he flipped it. well now my other friend who has a 2002 galant v6 flipped it yesterday when he swerved to avoid a car sticking out in his lane then swerved back to not hit the yield sign, he swerved to quick and flipped it. he also like my other friend walked away. he was speeding on a main road thats narrow speed limit on the road is 35 he was doing 60 which is not uncommon for people to be doing on that road. i have one more friend with a galant a 2000 4 cyl i hope he isent next.

Lol my friend drives a V6 galant, funny thing was In the first month of our senior year of H.S. he got in 2 accidents with two different people, not with his car but with my other friends. Both totaled. First crash was an 03 suzuki Aerio sx the other was a 93 3000gt.

Galants are Tainted...

The v6 galant has(had) some potential, i wanna know if the engine still runs in it cause my other friend with the 4 cyl galant say to me " it has no power i put it to the floor but no acceleration. I ran the swap by him he said maybe. also sunday taking the engine out of my friends 94 teggy and he's putting a 18 b in it gonna be tuned to around 300 hp at the wheels. Then a female co worker of mine has a sebring but the transmission took a dump on her like 4 months ago. I found her a new used one for $250 what would a shop charge to put it in? if its over $300 me and some of my other friends and fellow car guys will attempt to drop a transmission and throw in a new one with the car on jack stands.

on a side note anyone want a 93 5.0 mustang ?

V6 galants aren't slow. I like to think of them as four door 3000gt's just with the single cam motor.

this is those statistic's I mention when young people get sports cars, look at the damage an inexperienced driver can do with a grocery getter, you want these people on the road in a sports car?

Maybe it's not the car but the fact that your friends need to stop driving like idiots on public roads... but that's just my opinion...

He was being smart and trying to talk her out of it. Your friend that wrect his galant in the photo deserved to wreck it. 60 in a 35 on a narrow road. Its probably rated 35 because thats the speed you should go... The car sticking out probably could have came out if he wasn't going 60 effing MPH.... Smack him for me. Stupid kids.

Yeah i get on there maybe once a week. Tons of D-Bags on there.... I usually come up with clever comments like, thats cool go work on your fast domestic that is always broke down and i'll go drive my nissan for 500,000 miles. I get the "rice boy" too... I have met some cool guys though, its all the middle aged guys that think they are superior. Most of the guys that are flamers on there are dorks in person anyway. Actually most of the guys on there are dorks LOL. Someone ticks me off about every time i get on there so its about once a week for me, and usually just to read.
