Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

I was just driving down the road in my moms minivan (Woot!) and saw this clean car, a white two door (It was real shiny, thats what got my attention). I went up and checked it out.. Looks sweet, its a Conquest TSI.. Looked under the front bumper and o! Nice little FMIC ;) Interior looks terrific, Exterior looks good too. Looks to be about an 87 or 88. Clean as hell, one of the cleanest cars I've seen in a while.

I'll take pics later, but what do you guys think of Conquests, anything known to go bad in them? I haven't called the owners yet, I want to know if these are good cars or not.

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Junk?
 

Conquests are to Starions, as Talons are to Eclipses. They are the same. I love those cars. They look sweet plus they are RWD. They have a head gasket problem, but that is pretty easy to solve. If the price is right, I would buy it my self! ;D

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Junk?
 

My neighbor had one not to bad of a car. If it's in the 1g area I would sport it

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Junk?
 

Yeah conquest/starions are pretty sweet... You dont see many good ones anymore, I think they look cool too. Go drifting

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Junk?
 

2.6l turbocharged i4.... i almost bought one. they're pretty cool

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Junk?
 

if the turbo is good go for it!

Check out the forums on the left hand side, there's a New Owners Tips which lists things to watch out for.

It's a rare car, but definately a cool one. Worth buying even if you'll sell it again, you don't see many.

Here's the specs:

Manufacturer: Chrysler
Model: Conquest TSi
Year: 1987
Miles: Get this... 32692!!!
The Good: 32692 miles. Paint is mostly flawless, perfect interior (Red leather seats), crank-powered moonroof. I see not one thing wrong with this car. He replaced the tires 2 years ago (but only put a few hundred miles on it), kept it in a heated garage, washed and waxed it atleast twice every time he went out.. He's put a grand total of about 800 miles on the car in 5 years! This car is truly amazing. He replaced the clutch and everything that goes with it 3 years ago, replaced the exhaust (cat-back), replaced the front bumper fins (his nephew hit a curb and chipped the ends off), and he replaced a few other things but I can't remember. He filled up the gas tank two years
The Bad: Antenna doesn't go down (bad motor), Driver's side window doesnt go down very well. Kinda slow.
The Ugly: I'm a poor high school student and the price is $5600. However, I might get a loan if I convince my mom! 3 chips in the paint (maybe), and a little rust spot the size of spenser's penis (About 1 Millimeter for you Canadians) on the top of the gas cap. You could stick white-out on it and the car would look fine.

$5600! This thing is worth every single penny.

Since newbieforces is being a bitch, and Imagestation is a bandwidth -----, here are the Villagephotos.com-sponsored pics ;)

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Junk?
 

I would still pass at that price. See if you can break him down a bit.

Re:Chrysler Conquest...NOT JUNK! (Pics!)
 

the one i was gunna buy was $3800... and it was in perfect condition with new clutch and $1000 dollars in HKS parts... boost controller, exhaust ext... but it had 126k miles

Re:Chrysler Conquest...NOT JUNK! (Pics!)
 

pics dont work :(

Re:Chrysler Conquest...NOT JUNK! (Pics!)
 

show up with 4k in hand...

Re:Chrysler Conquest...NOT JUNK! (Pics!)
 

yes thats a very nice car looks hot but its not worth 5600. you could get something so much better for that price. maybe 2k max. its still an 88 parts are a bitch to get if anything happens to it. just tell him to sell u the intercooler...

wow, imagestation could not have gotten any gayer.. time to use newbieforces :-P

Re:Chrysler Conquest...NOT JUNK! (Pics!)
 

Dude, starions and conquest are the ----. The motors are bullet proof, ---- loads of interchangeable parts. My buddys uncle has a starion with about 350WHP with OEM parts and tuning. The motor can withstand 20lbs with everything stock.....I found this for you...

5G sounds pretty fair for what you are getting. I would jump on that.

someone said something about the head gasket, that was a problem, and also the front crank seal was a problem with those cars.

Re:Chrysler Conquest...NOT JUNK! (Pics!)
 

your ------- retarded, use newbies force, and don't talk about my 9" penis, fag.

we don't get those cars up here, but yeah i guess they might be cool i have no idead, i've never seen one.

Re:Chrysler Conquest...NOT JUNK! (Pics!)
 

yeah that looks like a clean specimen.

" Could not copy: Wrong filetype (Conquest.JPG) "

Keep getting that from newbieforces. What else kind of file type does it take? I definetly don't want to make them BMP's :-X

Re:Chrysler Conquest...NOT JUNK! (Pics!)
 

pics no worky.....ur both fired ;D :P

Re:Chrysler Conquest...NOT JUNK! (Pics!)
 

Imagestation is to greedy with their bandwidth and newbieforces won't recognize .jpg format ::).. grr

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

*BUMP*

Fixed the pics. Still want some opinions here, because this car really is nice.. but I can maybe get a CRX for cheap and a B18 and turbo it or something, not sure. what do you guys think?

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

get the conquest...my uncle used to have one and they are badass.

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

depends on what you want. Hondas are fun cause they're cheap, if you smash one or blow up a motor it doesn't cost too much. But a semi-restored conquest with some decent tweaking and R W D (rear wheel drive) would own alot of people at the meets you plan on going to. There generally going to cost about the same, especially if a ricer owned your crx at any time, they have a tendancy to screw with wiring harnesses.

Seriously, get $4k, knock on his door and tell him to give you the keys.

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

pics not working still. ???

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

spenser

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

Spenser, pics should be working.

I still need some opinions.. do you think he'd take 4k?

The more important question.. is it WORTH 4k? :-\

EDIT: sorry spens, everytime i write your name it comes up with "SpensorIsGay".. Wonder if a Mod did that? ;)

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

"I" think it's worth $4K, ofcourse I hold no value in money; mostly because I have none.

I'm telling you, show up with 4 grand and slap it on him, act like your parents don't know about it and say this is all you got. He'll piss and moan, then you bring up the small problems with the car and note the KBB and that you checked other cars of similar shape. Then He'll piss and moan some more. NEVER say you need the car or want the car; of course it'e implied but don't say it out right; just say how much you like the looks and heard it would make a good project, get him sidetracked into talking about preformance or restoration, let him bitch and moan a little bit more then let there be an eerie silence for a good while until he caves in. Oh and make sure he sees the dough; don't flash it at him, just have an open envelope in your shirt pocket. Then buy it.

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

go there with ur offer, look at the car, and point out all the bad things, dont talk, kinda look at it, play with it, just dont talk. kinda look at it like it is just a pile, and u dont want it. tell him ur lookin for a project vehicle, and that about it. tell him ur lookin at a few others. then be like Ill give you 4 for it and SHUT UP! first person to talk after that looses. if he says no, or counteroffers, say I have 4G and that all. Im a highschool student....bla bla bla. then tell him again what u will have to fix and ----, and tell him its just a toy for you. if he still wont take 4, give him ur number and walk away.

*I was a car salesman before the miltiary....it works.* most of that is how we would talk people down with trades.

*make sure u point out all of the bad things but dont say anything to him, just make sure he sees u pointing things out*

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

if the guy has a 5k+ price tag on it, he's probably in no huge hurry to sell it. further, if he's been babying it all these years, he'll probably be reluctant to sell it to a high-school student. even more so if you act like you're just going to throw it away. car salesmen tend to annoy people :)

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

Pics still don't work, ???

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

Your PC must suck Spenser.

He drove it off of his lawn and into his garage after I left... It hasn't been out since. Maybe I should take a hint. :P

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

it worked for me to sell cars! and its worked for me to buy cars! I bought my civic with a 5G price tag, I give him 2300 bucks for it, cash. it works.

Re:Chrysler Conquest...Updated working pics! (9)
 

nope they really don't work. this is what I get

anyways, that car is nice, but it's value is more about the people who own them. For the general public and old chrysler will not cost more than 2k. For the Conquest/Starion enthusiasts, they are like gold, specially if it is near mint condition. If you really like it, then it is worth the 5k, but I'm sure that if you wait you can get one cheaper, but it might not be in the best condition.

When I moved to the house I live right now, the neighor right across the street hasd one in the driveway, black, near perfect condition outside. I never went to ask about it, and a month later they told me he called the junkyard to scrap it. I should have offered him some money before, but i never asked.
