Get ready for snowfall and icy roads all over Britain as the Winter season sets in. This week the 1988 Mitsubishi Starion ESI-R invites Horizon Festival drivers to experience the final evolution of the Starion breed and the last rear-wheel drive turbocharged Mitsubishi to date.
With iconic 80s styling, four-wheel independent suspension, and a massive 2.6-liter “Astron” engine, the 180-horsepower Starion gave all its contemporaries a run for their money and won the intense Paris-Dakar rally’s experimental class back in 1983. Unlock it in this week’s Seasonal Championships and you too can experience a car that remains active and beloved today amongst the JDM community.
