    Replacement Galant?

    Doesn't look tooooo... bad

    A VR4 version would be nice, new bumpers, lower, bigger wheels etc. 3.8l V6 turbo charged :boing3:

    Oh yeah.... a better name than GRUNDER! Sounds like some kind of mens underwear :rolleyes5

    I think "Grunder" is probably a take on "grandeur" or "grander". i.e. a bigger Galant than before. Therefore this is just the US 9G Version, with another face.
    We work to live, and to live is to drive a VR-4, around corners at speed. But it costs see here

    The Ralliart Galant in the US seems to be a step in the right direction. Maybe have the Grunders rear end with an agressive front end like the Eclipse Concept-E.

    The US Ralliart concept looks like it's going the right direction. Maybe put a bumper on it like the Eclipse Concept-E and the rear end of the Grunder.
