Neat looking car.
I thought they looked like a space ship on wheels as a kid, with all the angles and fender flares, front and rear spoilers...

The white one that I'll keep doesn't really need enough to have a full blown build thread; I won't be restoring it, just cleaning/detailing and going through it mechanically. I can post that though! Mitsubishi did make all of them, and Chrysler imported/rebadged some as Conquests with almost zero changes. I think the tail lights and sunvisors were different, and the grill was body color vs black on the Starions. The steering wheels may have been different too. I've just started researching about them and they can be very quick with just bolt-ons.
