Top 15 Affordable Sports Cars of the 80s
Dodge Conquest/Mitsubishi Starion
We confess: the Conquest and Starion were never sold in Canada. But they were available on the U.S. market from 1983 to 1989, and they’re cool cars. They draw stares with their muscular, aggressive design and luxurious, leather-lined cockpits. We’re particularly fond of the Conquest TSi and the Starion ESI-R, equipped with a turbocharged and intercooled, 2.6-litre four-cylinder engine that developed as much as 176 horsepower and 223 pound-feet of torque. They were replaced by the Plymouth Laser, the Eagle Talon and the Mitsubishi Eclipse.
