Huh, gotta wonder why AMG didn't use any of the VR-4 cars to put their little package on. Sounds like all they did was put a body kit, some wheels, and different upholstry in a regular old galant.

OP: Your car looks nice, but I was also thrown off by the AMG badge.

If I remember right, they tuned the N/A Galants to have closer hp to the turbo 4g63. I thought I had read that somewhere.

Back in the day, AMG did more than Mercedes Benz cars.

I wasn't aware of this until now, Those AMG Galants must be suuuper hard to find.. To bad they didnt do that with the turbo model Galants..

Nice car tho

In the link that MustGoFaster put up, it said they didn't do anything with the engine. Also, in the pics the engine looks totally stock.

the washer and the rear fog lights are for european versions..European
set up is the one of the famous trend here in the Philippines aside from JDM setup..


hahaha...about the AMG Badge..Sorry for that... well Im dreaming of the AMG engine from the
6th Generation Galant.. It has a higher output than the regular 2.0 DOHC which
only have 140-150Hp while AMG Engines are about 170-180 output..plus
it is tuned by AMG..

Pretty clean car! Although, I would take the AMG badge off, until you do get that 6th gen motor. ;)

Welcome to the site.

I say keep the AMG badge if you like it.

There are some AMG parts available for my 91 GVr4 but they are hard to find and expensive.
