I respect a guy who puts big amounts of time & energy to preserve such a nice, exclusive, different & demanding car. People like him preserve the not so well known classic cars that deserves to be preserved.

I think Mitsubishi was trying to compete with the Skyline GTR during that period. No wonder the shape of the car seemed familiar. Great UNIQUE car!!

I love these old 70's imports I think they have so much personality and uniqueness

This is in the top 5 best looking vintage Japanese cars for sure

My absolute favourite old car, love the Galant. Especially the GTO MR in orange with black stripe. Here in Australia it was known as the Mitsubishi Galant....The colt was a small hatchback like the civic back then. There were a lot of Galants on the roads here before but I think they have been snapped up by enthusiasts within the past 15 years as they are rarely seen anymore. Unfortunately this absolute beauty of a coupe slantback wasn't imported here we did have the 4 door sedan, I think a 2 door sedan and the station wagon as they were manufactured here in Australia by Chrysler/Mitsubishi. A lot of the Galants had a Chrysler and a Mitsubishi badge on them, the later models were also manufactured here but they were called Mitsubishi Sigma. These were just about the most common cheap secondhand car around back a decade and a half, but I rarely see them anymore. I was interested in getting one just recently because I had enough of front wheel drive shitboxes and wanted a rear wheel drive four cylinder, but to my dismay they are very rare and expensive now.....SHIT. The next "Galant" was built here too, but here in Australia we altered it to be wider than the Japanese variant that had a four cylinder efi hemi in it. Here it was called the Mitsubishi Magna. These were ok, but they are front wheel drive shit so I'm not that interested in them.

I remember when 1960s Japanese cars were poor novelty copies of the 'real cars' made in the USA, Germany and England. Thin rusting sheet metal, thin chrome, under-powered, blown headgaskets, oil leaks, plastic and vinyl interiors that would fall apart in a year. (Like the faux cars made in China today) Then out came the 240Z and the Celica.........the world changed.

Nice ride! This is just one reason why I like Mitsubishi. They're cars are in a class by itself. Stands out from the rest. From 3000GT, Starion, Galant VR4, all the Evos, Eclipse and many others. Always a little different but reminds you of something else you've seen before but not exactly, and this makes it captivating. Up to today a lot of people see my 1g Eclipse and wonder what is that. Some say old Evo or 240sx.

I love the sound this car makes. Great video!

What a stunning thing! An incredible piece of Japanese automotive history, such a rare one at that. Props to you for your dedication towards this car it is done perfect! Love nostalgic Japanese cars keep more of them coming Petrolicious!

I've just found this channel and I'm so happy that there is a channel like this. Petrolicious isn't like so many other car-channels on KZread. It doesn't try to assimilate to what the average KZread consumer wants, it's just classy and very well made. Therefore I really enjoy your your films and I'm glad there are so many more to discover!

Since Mitsubishi has stopped to sell Galants in Germany in the early 2000s, the sight of a sedan from Mitsubishi has become a really rare thing, especially since they stopped selling the Lancer Series in 2015. Galant always was an impressive car like an audi a4 or BMW 3 Series.

Beautiful, awesome car... I love it!! Japanese cars from this era are so creative and all over the place. Some American styling influence, some Italian, some German, already some homegrown styling cues from the still-young Japanese industry... and the engine sounds (and looks) INCREDIBLE too!

beatiful, i realy like the cars of this channel, thanks you guys

I got my license in 73 my friends dad was Sales manager for local Mitsi dealership we went with him to Manfield track to test drive this Colt was the coolest awesome car loved them ever since.

He went above and beyond to restore this beauty. I pray it never gets damaged

That is a very very very pretty car, it's beautiful!

4k now? SWEET!

Wow, I can't believe I stumbled on this video. I owned this model in this very colour in the UK in the early 80's. What trip down memory lane. I swapped my very 1st car an MGB Roadster for it with a friend as I needed a "proper" 4 seater. To be honest I was lucky to keep my licence it seemed so easily quick for its day, fortunately speed detection was less sophisticated then. One of my oldest friends still talks about it. One of if not my very favorite car that I ever owned. Thanks so much for the video.

I was just enjoying the video and thinking about how much I'd love driving this and then incredibly watched you drive by where I grew up and out on to sunrise highway where I used to drive my first car... Man that was surreal.

That's like the Evo's grandfather

nice work on the video, cool car

I was just telling my girlfriend about this car, about my 1975 Mitsubishi Galant GRS GTO that I had when I was stationed in Tokyo, Japan. It was the first car I bought there and it was MINT! I only paid $500 for it in 1983 from another USAF G.I. who was shipping out back to the US. He let me pay him $100 a month for 5 monhts!!! LOL! That car was in-cred-ible!!! Amazing fast! loved that car!!!

A+ to this guy! I love these videos and most of the people...their stories are inspiration for me to one day get a classic and fix it up. Currently I have a BRZ but I used to have a 84 300ZX Turbo GL that I regret selling. There's something about older cars that modern cars don't have.

The car is definitely very beautiful. You can't find such distinctive looks in any of the modern day cars. Today, most of the manufacturers are making soulless cars.

Just when I thought I was in love with a car this silent monster shows up.

Thank you for this video it brought back some great memories. As an 18year old kid this was my very first car. Lots of street cred and great fun.

Gabriel Aquino the problem is company investing and also the sales. Rich people think it as cheap and very rare people like us buy them and keep them as masterpiece.

Own a later variant of the Galant and thankfully, they've retained some of that old school charm that brings in waves of smiles on a curvy road.

Back in 1980 in Kiwi land my father brought my mother one of these. I was two years away from getting my drivers license and already a ragging petrol head, sooooo I was relegated to learning to drive in my Fathers Company Ford Escort Van though on the odd occasion I got to drive the GTO and for a 15 year old this was quiet frankly an amazing car for that time!...

Nice ride, and footage... but the overhyped commentary should be taken with a grain of salt. I know plenty of vintage/classic Mitsubishi owners and we do not have an issue finding parts and keeping our cars running, because there IS a cult following and many forums where we do not need to learn Japanese... LOL! Even so, many of our fellow Mitsubishi owners, whom are Japanese, communicate with us in plain English. BTW the engine in this car is not original to what the GS-R came with, the larger Mitsu Astron 2.6l has been swapped in. Great engine, especially with the twin side drafts.

"its not an exotic if theres no cult following" thats such a powerful line and truth in the car world. its like no one would bother to pay attention to a car that is thought to have no history and no following, but when people start taking notice, its like theres "history" all of a sudden and a demand. this is what is exactly happening right now to all the 70s japanese cars.

The Colt has very classic proportion and a design that will last decades. It's amazing restoration, and the wheels look really awesome.

Thanks! Amazing stories about amazing people and their cars. You catch the essence of car enthusiasm every time.

I had Plymouth (Mitsubishi) Arrows that seemed like a later version of this maybe. ? They were good cars, a little awkward looking but still I liked the way they looked but they weren't nearly as good looking as this model. This car sounds really good too.
