| The
Conquest was a unique and cool car. It only came
as a 3 door hatchback, but unlike other hatchbacks
of the time, it was a true sports car. The engine
was a turbocharged 4 cylinder with rear wheel drive.
It competed in the sports car market with the Mazda
RX-7, Porsche 944, Nissan 280ZX, and Toyota Supra.
The Conquest (under the Starion name) was very successful
on the race track, but never appealed to a broad
group of consumers. The 2.6 L G54B engine had a
single camshaft head (SOHC) and throttle body fuel
injection. The Chrysler model was sold as a Conquest
TSi to indicate that it was a turbocharged vehicle.
It was actually only sold as a Chrysler for 1987
1988 and 1989, and other the Dodge and Plymouth
brands the other years. Many consider the Dodge
Stealth to be a replacement of the Conquest, although
they had very different body types. If you are looking
to buy a used Conquest or twin car, I suggest you
scan you local classifieds, although your chances
of finding one are low. Your best chances are looking
on eBay, where you might also be able to find parts,
if you are lucky. |
