Better peformance car?

There are two cars for the same price ($7,500)
One is a Mitsubishi Lancer 02' with a carbon fiber hood and
carbon fiber wing.

Or a Mitsubishi Galant 99' with a body kit, a spoiler, new HKS air intake system, exhaust tuning.

Of course the Galant sounds better, but which one will go faster and look better with mods?

The Galant is a dressy entry-level luxury sedan.

The Lancer is a bargain basement economy sedan.

NEITHER IS A PERFORMANCE CAR.

Don't bother spending your money on either of those cars. $7,500 can get you a lot more car than that.

In fact, if I had $7,500, I'd go out and buy a mid to late 70's Corvette with the L82 Chevy small block and the four speed transmission and start going through the Jeg's catalog. Guaran-damn-tee you that I could have a 350hp for $7,500 for less work than dragging 175hp out of that Lancer.

Re: Which car should I get

Are you going for performance or looks? If its performance then I would say get either, your gonna have to spend a lot to make it a "fast" car, but looks is based on your taste.

your not going to get a very good looking vette for 7,500. 74 was the last year for the big block and believe me you won't find one in good shape for 7500!

That Galant is craptastic. Gaudy body kit that doesn't fit right, tiny stock wheels, huge muffler that sticks out a foot and doesn't fit the car. Spray some crappy blue paint on it and you'll have my friends old Galant

The Lancer isn't very cool either. The foglights look dumb, so do the eyebrows and carbon grill. The hood is alright, I'm afraid to see what the spoiler looks like though.

Both are slow and aren't gonna be fast without spending TONS of money on them.

If I had to choose, I would get the Lancer, as it has less suckage than the Galant
