Concept-ZT: The next Galant? by jflor

Mitsubishi just announced that one of these concepts will be shown in next month's Tokyo Auto Show. Could this be the basis for the new Galant?

Mitsubishi is giving the current Galant a re-skin for the 2009 model year. The Concept ZT is more likely the full redesign (i.e. 10th generation Galant) rumored to occur for the 2011 model year. I feel that's too long to wait for such a beautiful design.

I could be 110% off on this but when I saw the concept ZT picture the other day and read there was speculation it could be the next generation Galant, I thought to myself how non-concept like it appeared. That is, it looks like a normal vehicle that you might see on the road today. Most concept show cars usually have some pretty blatant exaggerated aspects to them. All glass roofs, bulging fenders, 22 inch tires etc..etc.. The ZT looks like a finished design doesn't it? There doesn't appear to be anything that needs to be "toned down" for the general population.
 
I would suggest that showing a concept so agreeable to the customer base at 2007 - 2008 auto shows might mean it could realistically be ramped up for production by 2009 - 2010? Isn't is a fact that most concept cars are either not built at all...or put into production within 1 or 2 years after they are displayed.
 
Of course this could be wishful thinking on my part.

I'm about ready to replace the tires on my 2004 LS Galant - p215/60R16. I was looking at Sumitomo H4, but was wondering if anyone had any recommendations. Thanks

Dash board cracking by artie59
Oct 23, 2007 (4:27 pm)

I have a 2005 Galand LS with 30k on the clock. The dash board has a crack in the trim next to the radio. I brough the car to Smithtown Mitsu , they took a picture of the crack and sent it to the zone rep. That was 5 weeks ago and no reply. I have called the dealer and they tell me " We have left a message on his voice mail".
 Any ideas on what my next step should be? Who on the ladder can I call next? The dealer aparently can do nothing for me.

2009 Galant Info by mack9

The 2009 Mitsubishi Galant will NOT in fact be redesigned. Instead it will be refreshed again with new machine-finished alloy wheels for the Ralliart version, new front grille with the spilt theme eliminated, new redesigned sporty lower intake, new hood and bumper theme and slightly modified exterior headlight housings.
 
This means the planned redesign may be pushed to an extra two years, till 2010/2011 or at least a few years away from now.

That's bad news. I've a '99 LS that has served me very well for 134K miles (and counting) and I would easily consider a new Galant to replace it. However, I really don't care for the current styling and wouldn't buy the current model. That the V6 still requires Premium doesn't help either.
 
While I like my Galant a lot, after nearly 9 solid years of ownership I am tiring of it. It is the longest I've ever owned a car. I'm not sure if I can go another couple of years before replacing it.

For those who want an early look at the slight re-skin the Galant is receiving for the 2009 model year, please click below:

It's not much of a change... Also, it is expected that the mechanicals are virtually identical to the current car.
 
So yes, we will likely have to wait until 2010 for the redesigned 10th generation Galant.
