    Default Classic Import: 1987 Chrysler Conquest Technica...aka Mitsubishi Starion

    One of the first RWD turbo imports ever made.

    I've had her a few months, picked her up from the original owner in Florida.

    Only 56k all original miles, everything works including the a/c, interior like new, great original paint, rust free and runs great.

    I've actually never seen a Conquest/Starion that wasn't a wide-body.

    Yeah, not many flatties made to begin with...and a whole lot less made with the TECHNICA package...a rare find indeed.

    The technica pkg is cool, but I prefer the widebody conquest. You sir have one to many cool cars, I'd be more than happy to take one off your hands.

    Will work for food, car parts, or three stripe apparel. And not necessarily in that oder.

    I think someone asked what the TECHNICA package was (several posts were deleted)....the TECHNICA package includes a fully digital dash, like the Corvettes and other cars had back in the day. Every gauge, speedo, tach, boost, everything was in digital bars or digital numbers format. Kinda cool.

    No doubt about it that car was made in the 80's with an interior like that. Very nice find.

    Wild huh...the picture doesnt do it justice...its a deep, blood red...the fabric is plush...and looks like new...its crazy.

    I wish there was a way to find out exactly how many flattie, techie, white with the blood red interior were actually made....that would be very interesting to know.

    Super smooth car. You very rarely see those versions. Check out those seats....that's an "Asleep at the wheel" moment for sure. Low miles too. Good stuff.

    Default Wow!

    Man, I stumbled upon this forum while looking for pics of a 1987 Dodge Conquest with the Technica package. I had one. At least I'm about 95% sure it was an '87. It had the digital readout, as well as climate control and controls on the steering wheel. Man was that car ahead of its time! It was the smoothest ride at 90mph I've ever had. For probably 2 months after I got it, I just assumed the speedometer was broken and that I wasn't really going that fast. That was back in the early 90's and I bought the car used, but it is far and away the nicest car I've ever owned. I still dream about it, and if I could, I'd find one I could restore. I have NEVER run across one, though, that was exactly like mine with the digital speedo, steering wheel controls, etc. I can not remember if mine was a flatty, or a wide-body, to be honest, I sometimes see it in my head both ways, but I think it was a flatty. Man, how I loved that car! My interior was the velour like what you have, but mine was a blue/black color, and my exterior color was black. The back seat was all rounded and cushy, kids loved to ride in my back seat!
