Are you thinking of the Conquest? That was a re-badged Mitsubishi Starion.

I figured I would throw the Enclave into Carvana to see if I could save the Dispo fee
Umm.. no. I put in one accident due to the paint work on the door. That’s probably not even on the CarFax since it was a cash deal with the body shop.
Either way the offer wasn’t even close. $16,900 with a $2000 hit for the accident. Residual is $27,200.

My brother and I lusted after those, as I imagine most any enthusiasts did at the time. Thinking about it now, it’s shocking we didn’t end up with one.

Inspector just finished ... said he would knock at the door if he saw anything he knows they would balk at. Otherwise I just have to wait for the report. I was told to put the keys on the front seat because of Covid. I did just that with both sets, sitting on the owner’s manual pouch.

I've gotta think the bidding will get up there well into the $50k's though. That seems to be what they're going for on the used market - basically a modest discount over new.
