You may not have got much of a response on OzVR4.com if you asked the same questions - there are plenty of threads on there already covering the good and bad points.
Good - a LOT of car for the money, trim quality craps on other cars of that era, good midrange response from turbos, excellent cruiser, AWD makes them feel very stable, a great daily/family car and for the most part very reliable cars. 90% as quick as an Evo but far easier to live with day-to-day.
Bad - not the easiest to modify if you want big horsepower (lack of space in the engine bay, and lack of readily available aftermarket parts), auto trans and AYC diff can be fragile if they haven't had regular fluid changes, brakes are only adequate (Evo Brembo brakes are a bolt-on upgrade), stock suspension is fairly soft, and standard seats aren't good for hard cornering.
Overall, they're an excellent car, I've owned a number of Galants and Legnums, both manual and auto, and been very happy with them. Be prepared to wait if you want a manual, they're very hard to find these days.
