Indiana Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 The cars are the same unless ugly interior color choices slow a car down. I guess you might say a Conquest is because the front name place on them is a sticker not an emblem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metric-man Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) It’s what you can't see that makes an identical car faster than the other. The urban legend like the movie "The Love Bug" where Dean Jones says something like” Out of a thousand cars one or two are special…”, Or in the Movie "Christine" where in the beginning on the assembly line"Bad to the Bone" by George Throuogood and the Destroyers are playing. To the viewer those movies give automobiles a spirit or soul of their own, I heard plenty of times that people think their Starion or Conquest is possessed, especially when the electrical system is acting up.The Japanese culture is probably more superstitious that American culture, (during WWII) the idea of the Christian belief of the Holy Spirit scared the heck out of the Japanese Shinto Buddhists and somehow the idea that the American soldier was a possessed demon or Devil Dog as Buddhist have their own version of or equivalent to the Christian version of Hell... Around my eleventh birthday I had gotten a few Hot Wheels cars and a track I had amassed what I thought was a large collection of a dozen or so cars, at least so I thought until a school friend who lived a couple blocks from me we were comparing cars and he had at least what I thought to be one hundred or so, far out numbering my collection and humbling me at the same time, but after several rounds of eliminations one of my cars was second fastest to all of his.In that respect since the production is (in those toys) similar maybe wheel diameters on some of the models are larger but without the need to weigh the skill of a driver, or propulsion you could theoretically say one out of eighty or one hundred would be faster than the rest. On the production line for Starions and Conquests or the even the foundriesIf you look at the sand castings for the molds for the engine blocks or the cylinder head could be truer since they are replaced after a certain number are poured and the metallurgic composition of the castings could vary as the quality of materials involved the tolerances of the engines during production one or two could be tighter after the machining process.Electrical components used or copper wire diameter or quality or the copper itself, you could also compare the already obvious differences of injector sizing or matching’s to ECU's or MAS sensors or even compare intercooled to non-intercooled four lug to five lug, rolling resistance, aero dynamics, width, weight, chassis differences... these varied by models at through the years of production, as probably did the use of different vendor components like shock absorbers, or spark plugs... coolant, oil, radiator caps , tires, grease, paint, the use of anything and everything in the wrong or right combinations.. on any given day the same vehicle that passed by the same assembly teams could have been subject to the absence of a key member or subject to a training inspection, a rainy day, a sunny day , day after payday in other words human error, or somewhere between that and perfection. If it was a matter of record that someone could share that what was actually done on the production lines as far as how the cars were badged.If they were side by side or done according to order fulfillment.Someone suggested by random VIN research that Starions were assembled side by side with other models of the same year of production and similar design.
