    maselan yung tranny lalo na kung matic. servo and suspension are also concerns.

    We have one (1994 model, my family has owned it since brand new).

    Under my care we've changed the usual t-belt and seals, servo (cost 10K but there's a repair kit available at less than 1K), HT wires and gave the suspension a make-over at Zee/Cruven. The rotors were also changed by Mitsu before due to warping problems when the car was new and up to now so far so good.

    Resale is low but if you're the one buying and you want a nice, sleek V6 car then its a good choice to look at since parts are readily available for it. =) Just don't get the a/t tranny version. Just try to look for one that is driven and properly maintained by it's owner.

    what's the problem of the A/T? madali masira ba? o yun ang walang replacement parts?

    yung servo problems looks like sakit talaga ng mitsubishi yun... kahit lancers ganun din problem.

    There's a lot of parts pala ng galant... mali pala kinakalat ng rumors that mahirap mag hanap at mahal ang spare parts nya.

    the a/t is sirain... period. :P And when i drove the a/t version of my friend (96 V6 a/t) it wasnt that inspiring. The m/t version is the way to go. On parts, I just go over to Best Colt and SP International in Banawe and so far i've gotten all the stuff i've needed.

    saket talaga ng lancer (itlog, pizza), galant(6g, 7g) yang servo, kaya yung akin kinonvert using Idle-up Air Valve ng Toyota, ayun solb problema!

    Regarding sa parts, nakupo, ang dami mong pedeng bilan, abundant narin mga piyesa nyan, most shops na napagtatanungan ko meron naman sila. Akin kasi replacements parts lang (mostly suspension arms, stab links, engine supports etc.), ok naman quality, working very well at a low cost. Basta alaga lang sa maintenance and you're on.

    bakit hindi mo muna pa check sa mechanic mo para sigurado ka sa papalitan mo.

    mahirap yung bibili ka ng di ka sigurado bro.
