1986 Mitsubishi Starion /Conquest Coupe 2-Door 2.6L

Description for Mitsubishi Other 1986

This vehicle was purchased in 2012 through eBay when it had 18. 00 miles on it. That seller apparently found and bought it at a police auction earlier the same year. The story was that it had sat in impound/storage for over 20 years after the vehicle was involved in a drug bust and subsequent car chase - thus the low mileage. The short story is that since I bought it. the engine was torn down to the block and rebuilt with new rings. pistons. bearings. and even a new head. Also replaced water pump. fuel pump. radiator. heater core. turbo. computer. coil. and battery. The leather interior is pristine as is the dash and carpet. All gauges work. even the original cassette player. The exterior is immaculate with a beautiful gloss black paint and NO rust either on the body or the frame. The rims are original but do show their 28 years of age. I would guess that the tires have about 12. 00 miles on them. This car is 99. 9% stock with the only known after market item being the coil. All features/options work except the rear wiper - I just never got around to dealing with it. Since the rebuild. I've taken it on two road trips and besides being faster than a raped ape. it drives and handles like new. It has been appraised by a certified. professional appraiser at over $14. 00. You will NOT find a Starion that looks nicer. is more solid. has less miles AND drives better than this stock. pristine vehicle. I would drive it anywhere. anytime across country OR it is clean enough AS IS to go right to car shows and be considered the pride of the show. ** I have the original eBay listing that I bought this vehicle from as well as the appraisal. receipts for all stated work. plus other paperwork documented the history and mileage of this vehicle for any SERIOUS buyer **
