The Chrysler Conquest, a name synonymous with a unique blend of American muscle and Japanese engineering, was a two-door sports coupe produced from 1987 to 1989. Developed as a joint venture between Chrysler Corporation and Mitsubishi Motors, the Conquest was built on a stretched version of the Mitsubishi Starion's platform. This collaboration resulted in a stylish and powerful car, distinguished by its sleek, wedge-shaped body, retractable headlights, and a turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The Conquest was available in two trim levels: the base model and the more luxurious and sporty "Tsi" (Turbocharged Sport Injection). Both models featured a 2.6-liter four-cylinder engine, but the Tsi boasted a Garrett T3 turbocharger, generating an impressive 175 horsepower and 180 lb-ft of torque.

Despite its distinctive design and performance credentials, the Chrysler Conquest struggled to find its footing in the competitive sports car market. While its handling and acceleration were lauded by reviewers, issues like a cramped interior, a lack of refinement, and the perceived reliability of Japanese rivals contributed to its decline in popularity. The Conquest's production was discontinued in 1989, leaving a legacy of a unique and daring attempt by Chrysler to capitalize on the burgeoning sports car market. Some argue that the Conquest's true potential was never fully realized, as its blend of American bravado and Japanese engineering was a formula that could have been a recipe for success with some fine-tuning. The Chrysler Conquest, a car that was both a product of its time and a bit ahead of its time, remains a testament to the innovative spirit of carmaking in the 1980s.
