What do you drive when the Starion/Conquest is taking a break???

It is an 89 turbo 4. I really wanted a 4 and it helps that they are cheaper as well. I want an SE with a mid-wing. Mine is just a turbo, not an SE so it only make 237HP and is not intercooled. The SEs make a few more ponies, but tend to have more problems as the intercooler makes things more complex and the transmissions are already stressed at the lower output. It is a fun car, but not quiet like the tossable car like the newer and older cars. Esprits were GT cars.

 

My goal is to make my Conquest something as much fun to drive as the Esprit, but have 4 seats.

Beautiful car man, I've always loved 'em.

The main car i've been driving lately is my mustang but soon i'll be driving my Nissan hardbody or my F150 for winter.

This car has been a bullet proof daily for over 5 years and almost 50k miles now was getting 29 mpg to work and back

last i checked, just basic maintenance items is all i've ever had to do to her.

Oh my...where do I begin.

 

Well...most of the time, if I'm not driving my flatty, I'm driving this....2001 Dodge Neon R/T 2.0 Magnum

http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/223014_10150329698346672_505891671_9374801_3241730_n.jpg

 

If I'm not driving that for some reason, I'm driving this beast. 2003 Ford Crown Victoria LX Sport

.....and when I'm driving on a road course...I'm driving this...1995 Dodge Neon ACR Coupe, in rare Nitro YellowGreen. 1 of 98 Cars Made.

but it's currently undergoing engine swap (2.0L DOHC ----> Built 2.4L DOHC) so it currently sits here.

Oh and I almost forgot. This isn't my car...but it IS an option of mine to drive...my aunt's 1969 Dodge Super Bee. She says I can take it whenever I want to. I just have to ask first, and put gas in it.
