Beige Cruise Missile: 1990 Plymouth Laser RS Turbo
Before Plymouth slid quietly into the automotive graveyard, they briefly flirted with turbocharged performance in the form of the Laser RS—a badge-engineered DSM sibling to the Mitsubishi Eclipse and Eagle Talon. This 1990 example is peak boost-era optimism: a front-drive hatchback with a 5-speed manual, a 6-bolt 4G63 under the hood, and beige paint so understated it might just slip past radar. Find this 1990 Plymouth Laser RS offered for $4,500 in Merrick, NY via facemouth laserbook. Tip from Cory.

This era Mitsubishi always seems to ‘smoke a little’. Likely a whole generation of Mitsubishis were ridden hard and put away wet thanks to their policy of extending loans to anyone who could either fog a mirror or went to raves. The price is almost low enough on this one to warrant saving it.
