we need to see the engine bay! pop that hood man

Bro thats all you need you dont need some nasty car with perfect body, all you need is a car that you enjoy driving. Car has great potential i like it. Keep it up.

Engine please....................

jumping it??

we don't need pictures of every piece of shit out on the road just because the owner really likes it that way

"Nothing matters except the joy that comes from daily driving it, drifting it, jumping it, racing it, and thrashing it. "



Awesome. Its tiring to see people for whom 80% is all about "hella fitment", "rad aero" "ultra tite jdm parts" or being on the latest drift hypes or trends, and then only 20% is enjoyment.



enjoy your car 110% and forget about fads, fashion, hipsters, and superfluous things.



Mad Max would be proud

Used and abused

I wish it wasn't so hard to find a Starion.

I LOVE widebody Starions! This car is hot...never sell it.

reading this made my day!



F all the B.S., enjoy your car

Starions ftw.love the mad max look any engine picks?

OMG a Starion!!! You should have posted shots of the motor!!! Nice car!!!

GORGEOUS! its stuff like this that gives me hope for my car one day making somewhere like here. my 88 mr2 SC has some dings and dents, a few little rust spots....and is 3 different colors

Starion: the car that Consumer Reports said looked like it was going to transform into a robot. Love em!!!

I have an old Starion. Same model year, too. Mine's in red, and its just the buisness. The pure joy of driving it during a track day is just beyond words. If you have an oppertunity to buy one it is highly recomended that you do. Its just amazing. Clay, i can totally relate.

Enough with these shitty features. Thanks

I'm realy enjoying these posts about real cars, especially quirky ones like this beast. All you grumpy folks who don't like it can request a refund, start your own blog, or... uh, keep doing what you're doing and complain. It's a free country

Nice work Clay. Us SQers are finally getting a little spot light. Now I can only hope I get an article. Maybe we can do a Starquest G54b article with a few cars together

very underrated car...nice ride!

Yeah, this IS a car. Smelling fuel. Just bad.

Y34H!!! It really, really rocks!!!

There is a 1988 Mitsubishi,Starion,Conquest, Black on Ebay right now for around 500 dollars................needs engine work, just search for Mitsubishi Starion and you will see it!

Makes me wish I'd never sold mine. Even though something was always breaking on it, it was still a fun car and worth the fixing crap all the time. They have such a cool retro-dash and everything still worked on mine.

to those of you considering buying one of these, they are a lot of fun, but, you really have to be dedicated to them. probably one of the few cars out there that are solely supported by other enthusiasts. there is almost no aftermarket for these cars. the online support from starquestclub.com helps keep these cars on the road. this car is definitely a labor of love. if you want something easy and with plenty of bolt-ons, just get a 240sx. starions are idiosyncratic angular throw-backs to an era when america was first getting a taste of japanese muscle cars. you have to prepare yourself to own one of these. if you have the time then by all means, keep one more alive and on the roads.



and to the few people who dislike my car and this feature, remember, it is readers month, and you're more then free to submit your car to show how much you represent the car culture.



my car isn't about ordering flashy parts from a catalog. it isn't about looking as cool as possible to impress a bunch of people. it's not about being new, or shiny, or having a big price tag.

it's just a modern hot rod. it's a car built cheap and fast. it's built to abuse, repair, and abuse some more. it's from my favorite era of automobile, and it embodies the most amazing vision of it's time. displacement. turbo. intercooling. adjustable shocks. limited slip. negative offset. this is a car from 1986 and it's still kicking the hell out of most new cars.



and in the end, if you don't like my car, and moreso, don't like what this car means, then you're a poser. you are just riding on the car culture, trying to look the part. trying to be something through negativity. but all you do is detract from what hotrodding has built. the culture didn't get this far and create so many outlets for people's passions by being negative. we got this far by building on the positive. by building our strengths on good ideas. by moving forward with our passions and our joys, not our hatred and dislikes.

thanks redevil. I appreciate style, and yes there are some very nice looking cars that are within whatever current trends there are. I love to see a hellaflush car on airbags with a show worthy paint job. I think they are amazing things to look at. I just don't love driving a car like that, because it's not really a car. it become a decoration. an accessory. something whose use is reduced in pursuit of making it something it's not.



wish i could edit my earlier post a bit, because i realized that some people have difficulty with reading comprehension.



so, to be more specific.



you can dislike my specific car. that's understandable



but if you dislike what the car embodies, then you're a poser in the car culture.



i hope that clarifies it for the 'haters', assuming they know what 'embodies' means.

hahahaha you can love somebody as long as they love your car too! <3

Used and abused is always fun!

why would they be waiting for you. they should be sitting shotgun.

Ha ha ha! OK, no arguments left, perhaps there will be one bad night ride in here, in a few years, with cheers from France ^^

Keep rockin' with your starion!
