Galant Ralliart? maybe next time
On my way into work this morning, I was introduced to one of these. Never heard of it before. A nice clean, black specimen with nice aftermarket spoke style billet rims.
He decided that he wanted to play after I showed him my displeasure of him pulling out in front of me, riding his bumper a few miles. Once we got out onto the 2 lane highway, he started brake checking for me to get along side. I didn't go for it since it's the last Friday of the month , which the man likes, and I was running late as it was. I gave him a peace sign as he turned off into a sub-division (one that sheriffs never go into alone) and drove on, passing a deputy 2mi down the road.
Anybody with 1st hand knowledge on these? (yes I googled it, looks interesting)

Galants aren't supposed to slalom at 69 mph. They don't run the quarter mile in 14.4 seconds at 98.5 mph and can't do Motor Trend's figure-eight in 25.7 seconds. And no Galant behaves like an Evo.
But this one does. Built in-house at Mitsubishi Research and Design America, the Galant Ralliart Concept was still just a sketch six months before making its debut at the SEMA aftermarket trade show in Las Vegas. This is no turntable toy, however; it's a true factory tuner.

Might have been an interesting run.....
