Revhead Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Saw this on the local CL. It's not mine. Wouldn't the year and color make this one of the rarest starions? http://dallas.craigslist.org/ftw/cto/4909069093.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightwalkerancestery Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 I'm pretty sure, no. What makes it rare is that it's an 89 Starion rather than Conquest. In regards to the color, keep in mind that it's almost definitely a repaint judging by the lack of rock guards and no emblems anywhere. Regardless of repaint or not, I don't believe it's a rare color. I have an 88 Starion in the same color. I believe the true rare ones are the 85.5's and technica Starions. I am NOT an expert on the rarity between years and whatnot. This is all just what I've concluded over years of reading around. Hopefully someone can give a more definite answer with more conclusive arguments. Good find though! - Charles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revhead Posted March 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Yeah I was wondering about it really being a starion. I didn't see any emblems either, but I've never had a starion so I didn't know what was supposed to be there and the grille that should be black on a starion is body color.

TexasQuest Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 If in fact it is a Starion, non of it's noticeable features are still on the car. You'll have to go by the VIN # to know for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
