1988 Mitsubishi Starion Esi-r Not Chrysler Conquest Tsi, All Stock Unmolested on 2040-cars
Elk Grove Village, Illinois, United States
|
The Mitsubishi Starion is a two-door, turbocharged four-cylinder rear-wheel drive four-seat sports car that was in production from 1982 to 1989. It was also marketed in North America as the Conquest under the Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth names; both the Starion and Conquest came to an end in 1989. Mitsubishi's entry in the lucrative Japanese grand tourer class in the 1980s, the Starion is considered to be one of the originators of the modern Japanese turbocharged performance automobile genre, and the first to use electronic fuel injection Up for auction is my 1988 Mitsubishi Starion. I lost my free storage facility and I don't have room to fit this in my garage. I don't want to sell but if I don't it will just rot outside and go to waste. I would rather see it used and cared for as it should be. I purchased it a few years ago due to the fact I had free 24hr access to a climate controlled storage facility. I only drove it a handful of times. My plan was to just hold on to it until I built a big enough garage to keep it at my house. That never happened and now it has to go. Everything is stock and unmolested. The smoked fog light covers are the only change and I have the original white bezels. Body is rust free and interior is almost new. Minor scuffing on driver side bolster. e-mail me and I can send more detailed pictures of the interior, under door, etc... Rims are in perfect condition, no curb rash. Super clean and rare to find in this good condition. I have the owners manual and clean title in hand. Drives good and electrical system is all functional. Now the bad, keep in mind this is a 26 year old car so if you are buying this for a daily driver then some TLC will be needed. Since removing from storage it stumbles upon acceleration. The speedometer is no longer working and the shift from park-reverse-drive, etc are ok but it is sloppy (have to shift a little beyond the P-R-D-2-1 to get it to engage) Im am selling it as-is. If it doesn't sell then maybe I will take to a shop to get it all sorted out. Ask questions and if you want to check it out in person feel free to e-mail me. Car is located in Elk Grove Village, Il. 60007 I also have the car listed for sale locally so I have the right to remove this auction if needed. |

2014 Mitsubishi Lancer to shrink
Wed, 24 Oct 2012The aging, oft-forgotten Mitsubishi Lancer won't get a replacement until sometime in 2014, but a new report states that the next-generation model could be a relatively drastic departure from the car you see here. Mitsubishi Motors Corporation President Osamu Masuko told Australian site The Motor Report that the new Lancer will be smaller than the current car, going in a different direction than the vast majority of other automakers.
"The new Lancer will be a very new car, and will be sized somewhere between the current model and its predecessor," Masuko-san told The Motor Report.
There are both pros and cons to this decision. On the plus side, a smaller car means the Lancer will likely have a weight advantage over other vehicles in its class. That said, Mitsubishi will need to find ways to maximize interior space and create efficient packaging in order to still have its compact sedan remain competitive with strong offerings like the Hyundai Elantra, Chevrolet Cruze, Ford Focus and so on.

2014 Pikes Peak Hill Climb Practice Day 1
Wed, 25 Jun 2014This year the big news about the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb is about who isn't showing up. Sebastien Loeb, fresh off his record setting run last year, hasn't bothered coming back (and probably won't unless someone breaks his record). The Millen family is also noticeably absent. Rhys and Rod have been driving here for the past couple of decades but it looks like Rhys is focusing his efforts on Global RallyCross.
Last year Pikes Peak added a fourth practice day on Tuesday to allow drivers to get more time on the mountain. It's an optional practice day, but most drivers show up.
Today, both Time Attack divisions (1 and 2) as well as Unlimited division drove the lower third of the mountain. Pikes Peak Open, Open Wheel, Electric Production, Electric Modified, Exhibition and Vintage all practiced on the middle section, and bikes power sports did the top section.
