I have belonged to many car forums over the years and used this one for information. I have tried to search for requirements so if I have to be an active member with so many posts or time on the forum. Please accept my applogoes and delete the post. If it's acceptable to post this I would reall like to find my Starion a caring home. I was in love with 80's Era cars and this is the last one I have left. LOCATION: Phoenix Arizona SHIPPING: I will not ship but will pick you up at the airport or consider delivering it to a near by state for a fee, cost of fuel, food, and a plain ticket home. PREFERRED CONTACT METHOD: You can PM me( I will do my best to check back) or for the fastest response please respond through the craigslist add and let me know you saw it on Starquest. I try to be as thorough as possible in all of my ads. I tend to be as direct as possible, I hide nothing, and do my best to be as upfront as possible. I took the recent photo's with a 18MP Digital SLR so there is no misrepresentation in any way. If you have any questions at all, just ask. This Starion is an exceptionally clean example. This is a fly here, drive home car. I will do a quick pre-trip inspection, send you with some of the basics just in case Murphy wants to visit, pick you up from the airport, fill the gas tank, and make sure you are good to go. I would really like to find this car a loving home. Please read through the entire add before making me an offer or asking questions. I have tried to be as thorough as possible. THE CAR: 1987 Silver Mitsubishi Starion - This was the same car Dodge imported and called the Conquest. 146,412 Original Miles - The mileage will go up slightly. I drive it about once a week to work. California car all of its life before making its way to Arizona. It had never left San Diego until I bought it and drove it to Arizona. Owner History: I believe I'm the fifth owner. First owner bought it from a Mitsubishi Dealer in San Diego in 1989, I even think I have the original invoice for it sitting in one of my binders. All of the previous owner's where mature adults who took excellent care of this car. NO Rust, not even surface rust, anywhere! This car lived in the garage its entire life and has only seen California and Arizona. Only leak is the high pressure power steering hose which is only a slight seepage (does not drip) which has been there for several months. I have not had time to address it but nothing else on the car leaks anywhere. This is a slight seepage and doesn't drip to the ground at all. I've never needed to add fluid. It should be addressed at some point but it the only leak anywhere on the car and it doesn't effect it reliability or driving. I'm not going to hide anything so I wanted to mention it. If it is a major concern I may consider fixing it as part of the sale. Exterior: Paint is in Excellent condition. Previous owner had it repainted. Car is a beautiful silver. It's waxed every 6 months, washed weekly/bi-weekly depending on my schedule, and if I actually drove it that week. The car is always garaged and I throw a car cover over it if I have to park it outside so I can work on other projects in the garage. Only dent, ding, or scratch you will find is on the passenger side door, almost looks like a ricochet from something that hit the door. It's the size of a Nickel. You can see in the pics, it's not a huge eye soar, but it's there, and I'm about full disclosure -Front center panel is removed to help air flow and cooling in the hot summer months. I do have it and it's in perfect shape. It does come with the car. It's easy to reinstall but the extra air flow really helps out when I drive it through the hot summer months. -Front lower Bumper is cracked. This is extremely common on all of these cars, so common that any other starion I looked at when I searched for mine years ago had the broken bumper. I looked for years and couldn't find a new one for replacement. So I bought the best one I could get. It's not trashed but it's cracked. You can see this in the pictures. Interior: Near Mint. -Has a perfect dash - I only run a dash mat because in the summer months I occasionally get glare off of it depending on the suns angle. I'm pretty tall so I think this has something to do with it because other drivers have not had the issue. -Double Din Kenwood Deck with upgraded speakers. -Leather is in amazing shape. I clean and condition the leather in all of my cars regularly. The leather is still 20+years old but it doesn't have any cracking or unusual wear. - See pictures. -Gauge was refurbished and has blue indigo in color. Looks nice and is not ricey. -LED Dome Light -I installed blue LED's in the foot well area when you open the doors they kick on. It allows you to find things at night without messing up night vision. Can be easily removed if it's not your style. -Factory steering wheel was extremely worn out and was replaced with high end aftermarket Grant Steering wheel. I searched for quite some time for a nice factory wheel but they could not be found so I settled for the nice Grant Wheel. Unlike Many Starion's or Conquest's you find: EVERYTHING works in my car. A/C and Heating: Everything works like it should with no leaks. Ice cold A/C is a must in Arizona and heat for the occasional cold morning. My A/C system has been completely gone through and works as it should. Perfect heating and cooling in a Starion is hard to come by. I planned to keep this car for many more years and poured the funds into refurbishing the entire system. I drive all of my cars year round so A/C and Heat are a must in all of my vehicles. Tires: They still have lots of tread on them and they will make a trip. They are starting to get up there in age. I planned to replace them next year or 2 simply because of age. Nothing else. Battery: 6 Months old. Power, Refinement, Performance: -Rebuilt engine and transmission. -Car has been kept fairly stock. -Only performance mod was an exhaust due to age and noise of the stock one. I'm running a Magnaflow Muffler at the back. It sounds good with no drone. -Newer alternator 6 months ago. -New Fuel Pump 2yrs ago -New Clutch 6 month ago: Clutch was a LUK. Brakes: All lines have been completely replaced and brake fluid is a little over a year old. Suspension: Previous Owner went through the entire suspension before I bought it. He lowered it by 2" and did it properly. The springs are aftermarket, not cut stockers. Ride quality is still very nice and there is no clatter typically found with improperly lowered cars. Alignment is good. Car needs nothing. Things to Note: -I really tried to keep this car in excellent condition while staying as close to stock with my modifications. I wanted it, unique, safe, fast, and most of all fun. The list above shows this. I'm sure I'm forgetting something but I own lots of cars and have done so much to keep this a pristine example. -All maintenance is up to date. I take great care of this car and it screams pride of ownership. I have not seen another one this nice, in a very long time. Extra's: -This car has a Viper FM 2-Way alarm with 1mile range. -Binder full of receipts and things from the cars life with multiple owners. Thanks for reading the ad!! I'm asking $7,000 cash BUT I will entertain offers. I will also take partial trades for some items if it helps find this car a good home. So let me know. The worst I can say is no.
