PsyshoRacing Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 While my car has been at the shop, I have had a few offers for it. The only reason people around me know that it is a Conquest is because I have one. When I first got it everyone asked what it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19cturbo Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 i see the "conquest" getting more and more popular but not the "starion"... i find it funny at work (autozone) people will walk in and be like whose conquest is that, and i say oh the starion is mine and they look at you funky.. it is usually older people to..

Same here. I even had a guy ask my why I put a Mitsubishi emblem on my Conquest! :shock: Then he told me he use to sell Conquests at a Dodge Dealership in the 80's! :shock: :shock: He now works at advanced auto parts.

Casey_L Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 Starions > Conquests It will always be that way. The only thing Chrysler had to do with this vehicle is some stock on a Japanese company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Venable Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 yes, it has been getting a lot more Media coverage as of late. I think part of that is Mitsu bringing the Group A car out to the major auto shows too. Plus these:http://www.1999.co.jp/dbimages/user/hobby/itbig/10065439a.jpg They've been popping up on Ebay, and there is a 4th "secret" one that's a 4WD rally #200 There out of China/Hong Kong, and I have all 4 on their way here :D/ They're only 1/64 scale though, but they're still sweet. First 2 will hopefully arrive before I head home on Saturady or Sunday. Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanta Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 ^^ not only that, but I also think there is a younger base that's starting to appear here within our club as people discover that we exist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alabama didn't have a Mitsubishi dealer till like 92? so all the 1g dsms around here are Plymouths. Tennessee may be a similar phenomenon. I for one say starion.I used to say I wouldn't have a real Chrysler.......but the Crossfire owns and the New sebring hard top vert is awesome!
