Tina Turner Approved: 1990 Plymouth Laser RS Turbo

The Mitsubishi Eclipse, Eagle Talon, and Plymouth Laser triplets were three versions of the same car, all built in Normal, Illinois, by Diamond Star Motors. Each was available as a simple 4-banger front driver, a turbo-4 front driver, and a turbo-4 all-wheel-drive version – today we’ve got the cool RS Turbo version that uses a 2.0 liter Mitsubishi 4G63T to push 195 horsepower into the front wheels. If it is good enough for Tina Turner, it is good enough for you. Find this 1990 Plymouth Laser RS Turbo offered for $8500 in Bayonne, NJ via faceplaceblaze laserbook.
