ptschett, i dont think the mirada was the last one, but more among the final group. the last mirada was in 1983, which, do to poor sales, i have read articles how the last few hundred were destroyed, and never released to the public. but the mirada, volare/aspen, cordoba, imperial, diplomat were among the last, and i dont know if there was a rwd car in 1984.

Technically no. The conquest was made as a dodge and then a Chrysler. But if you mean true Chryslers, (no offense Pat, yours is far more a Chrysler than a conquest) then yes the mirada and the cordobas were the last 2 door rwd cars. Besides the viper of course.

what was the last year of the conquest? i thought they ran at the same time as the mirada? i consider the conquest a mopar...and id love to have one. when i had my good job right out of college, i looked into several of them, and there is a guy who runs two of them at PRP, with the faster, more beatup, of the two running 13.60s. he told me that i could have both for 5 grand...but i had just bought the RT when i met him. the only reason i didnt mention that was because ptschett said V8...im actually surprised that we dont have any conquest owners here

The M-body's were the last rear wheels drive cars, ending after the 88 model year.

Actually, the M bodies went into the '89 model year. The J bodies (2 doors) ended in '83.
