Vehicle Description

To Be OFFERED AT AUCTION WITHOUT RESERVE at RM Sothebys' Essen event, 11 - 12 April 2019. Estimate: €10.000 - €15.000 Offered from the Youngtimer Collection Single ownership for 30 years and just two registered owners from new Under 9,300 miles from new Offered with original Bill of Sale and folder of supporting documents The first Japanese sports car featuring EFI and turbocharging, Mitsubishi's Starion was at the forefront of 1980s motorsports at the international level. In the U.S., Starions won SCCA Endurance Championships outright, three times. Thirty years on, nice, low-mileage examples of the exciting, widebody Starions are very hard to find, as they have become cherished collector's items. The car being offered here was first owned by a well-known Santa Barbara, California, antiques dealer. The original invoice - included in the file - shows that Mr Roy Yeabsley purchased the Starion from his local Nissan-Datsun dealership in November of 1986. The top-of-the-line Starion, ordered in silver over black leather, features a body with boxy, flared fenders and is powered by a turbo-charged inline-four, all part of the recipe of a 1980s road rocket. Deep reaching front air dam and low-drag pop-up headlights add to the theme. Why the owner, almost 60 years old at the time, parked the car after covering less than 10,000 miles is a mystery, but the Starion was certainly loved by Mr Yeabsley. After his unfortunate passing in 2016, the car was purchased by the current owner and joined his collection in Switzerland - where it would be taken care of just as Mr Yeabsley would have wanted. Having been stored indoors all of its life, most of the time in sunny California, it remains in incredible condition throughout, having been driven less than 9,300 miles from new. The Starion ESI-R represents a rare opportunity to experience a well-loved, well-maintained car absolutely loaded with mid-1980s technology. • Aus der Youngtimer Collection • 30 Jahre in einer Hand und nur zwei eingetragene Besitzer insgesamt • Unter 9.300 Meilen • Angeboten mit dem originalen Kaufvertrag und umfangreicher Dokumentation Der Mitsubishi Starion stand als Japans erstes Auto mit elektronischer Benzineinspritzung an der Spitze des internationalen Motorsports. In den USA gewannen Starions drei Mal die Langstreckenmeisterschaft des SCCA als Gesamtsieger. Drei�ig Jahre sp�ter sind gute Exemplare des tollen Widebody Starion mit niedriger Laufleistung so gut wie nicht zu finden - und die wenigen �berlebenden sind zu gesuchten Sammlerexemplaren geworden. Das hier angebotene Fahrzeug geh�rte urspr�nglich einem bekannten Antiquit�tenh�ndler aus dem kalifornischen Santa Barbara. Die in den Unterlagen enthaletene Originalrechnung belegt den Neukauf durch einen Mr. Roy Yeabsley, der den Wagen im November 1986 bei seinem �rtlichen Nissan-Datsun H�ndler erworben hatte. Dieses Starion-Topmodell in silber mit schwarzem Leder und der Karosserie mit den kantig ausgestellten Kotfl�geln verf�gt �ber einen Reihenvierzylinder mit Turbolader - alles Zutaten f�r eine 80er Jahre-Ikone. Ein weit heruntergezogener Spoiler und die damals so beliebten Klappscheinwerfer komplettieren den Auftritt. Warum der damalige Besitzer im Alter von fast 60 Jahren den Starion mit weniger als 10.000 Meilen Laufleistung eines Tages einfach abgestellt hatte, bleibt ein R�tsel, doch geliebt haben muss Mr. Yeabsley diesen Starion. Nach seinem Ableben 2016 wurde das Fahrzeug vom jetzigen Besitzer erstanden und seiner Sammlung in der Schweiz hinzugef�gt - wo es so gepflegt wurde, wie es Mr. Yeabsley gewollt h�tte. Dieser Wagen wurde Zeit seines Lebens unter Dach gelagert und hat die meiste Zeit im sonnigen Kalifornien verbracht, weshalb er heute noch in au�ergw�hnlich gutem Zustand ist. Der Tachostand zeigt heute weniger als 9.300 Meilen an. Dieser Mitsubishi Starion ESI-R stellt eine seltene Gelegenheit dar, ein sehr gepflegtes und vollausgestattetes japanisches Sportcoup� mit 80er-Jahre Technik zu erwerben.
