Man those galants look sweet. My neighbor has one that is pretty tricked out. Kinda looks like those small cadillacs. Glad you got it back, 9k in damages I am surprised they didnt try to total it out. ---

Thanks bro, yea it is sweet I got the GTS model. The car end up to be real pricey after all the options and such, which is why they didn’t total it. ---

2 weeks to do $9000 worth of repairs? I’d say that’s pretty quick… Argh, I just hate it how the American equivalents to our Australian cars always look better. That Galant looks really really nice, as opposed to the lookalike Australian Mitsubishi 380 which is utterly hopeless. Same with the Pontiac GTO and Holden Monaro. You guys even get better Jaguars ☹ Bleh. That Galant needs bigger rims, though 😉 ---
