Looks like a late 90'* or early Y2K era Galant with a taller rear deck height.
Not too bad though looks wise for $14k, but I didn't open the link yet.

I saw the commercial tonight, the optioned out version sells for $31K and some pennies after that. So, the $14K version has seats and maybe some doors.

Maybe it was $21K...anyway...I'm sure I'll see it again.

Does it get 15 mpg like the new V6 Eclipse?

*edit*

LOL WTF!!



No thank you...the car stares back at you

29 mpg
but still, 0-60 in 7.7 seconds isn't THAT bad for a small car

I don't know, dude. My Bonnie is only a 10th behind the MItsi and that'* with the tires spinning and I surpass the Mitsi in gas mileage (Bonnie= 35 mpg > Mitsi'* 29 mpg)

well, looking at the specs on it, the base model doesn't have half the stuff the picture has (Steelies and caps), starts at $19K, and has the 2.4L 4G69 motor, which I am assuming is not the motor that did 0-60 in 7.7 (I believe their 3.8L to be the one that did that)

The options the base has also are uninspiring.

i do have to say, that the well optioned ones look good, and the promotional ones aren't bad.

Not something I would sink my cash into. then again, I buy already depreitiated cars.
