Nice!!! I've always liked those, not too many of them left. I was after a guy for a few yrs about his Conquest TSi.

I always liked the Tsi better, this is the narrow body, without the flared fenders. I am just happy to find one so clean.

Very nice ride! I remember those well! I liked the Mitsubishi model. Cool bells and whistles!

This reminds me of funny thing about Mitsubishi and Dodge. A little bit later than the Conquest. When Chrysler was Selling the Eagle Talon, Plymouth Laser, and Mitsu Eclipse...they were all the same guts with a few different styling differences. The Eclipse had far better consumer ratings, because it was a Japanese car and the others were American. One of those dumb little things that stick in my head.
The Conquests also remind me of the Celica GT and Supras.

They look a lot like early Celicas, don't they?
I had an '82 Celica when I was in high school from '90 until '92, great little car... ran well -fairly quick and good handling- very low maintenance, great gas mileage, rarely see any anymore. I really wanted a Supra then!
