Hehe... may plugging pa. :D She's honestly in better condition them most Galants of the same age that i've seen running around. Not perfect if you're the super OC type but she's clean and reliable enough for us to just get in and drive out of town without thinking twice.

Expect to pay more for gasoline as against your 1.3L and 1.6L in city traffic driving. Of course the 1.6L and 1.3L cars like your Corolla and Sentra will be more practical in a sense if youre looking at fuel efficiency. If you're going for a 2.0L class vehicle, the benefits come in if you're looking for space, power and stability on the highway drives; FC also almost evens out as against 1.6L vehicles if its highway driving as the engine is less stressed and can carry load with less need to push the gas pedal.

A common problem on those Galant models are the wear and tear to the balljoints. With ours, I got the best results by using original control arms (surplus or brand new) then 555 balljoints. Cost us around P 900 per balljoint if memory serves me correctly (thankfully, parts for this arent expensive). Another problem is the automatic transmission on the 94 to 97 models from what i hear. Other problems is pretty much similar to what you'd find with any old EFI sedan so it really boils down to how the previous owner maintained the car.
