Had one of these many years ago. Only 4675 were made, and only 2500 stayed in the UK. Rather fitting, this week.

Had a lot of fun in this:

Rarest cars I've owned... BMW E30 M3 (all original, drove it for two years and sold it for more than I paid), Porsche 997 GT3, Audi Quattro Coupé (quite rare in the USA). Nothing truly exotic though...

Just realized I posted in this thread two years ago... Face palm

If your obsessed with poster cars this is a quintessential 80's tuner car.

Its a 1988 Koenig Specials 928

No pics but I had a 1969 Pontiac GTO fresh out of high school. Green with a red stripe, god that car was a monster. Got t boned one day in front of my house. I had bought that car for... $500.00!

rolio · 12 October 2013, 02:23 AM

how rare it was, but the love hate relationship between me and this car was all but rare:

My 67 was just like this one.

'97 Subaru SVX. 1 of 51 in Canada in that, it's last, year.
Sadly, recently sold but replaced by an almost equally rare 2001 Saab 9-5 Aero 5-speed wagon with only 122,000 km.

I've never owned a rare car, but I have had a couple that weren't very well done.

Funny enough, I drive the 2nd most popular vehicle in the US, however mine is excessively rare due to the 6.2L under its hood..... Does that count?

My car while serving in the Navy back in the 80s. Don't see a lot of them around anymore.

Oh my Erwin, we had one of those way back. Powder blue it was, I called it the "fishbowl"!

Mine's color is ....dunno... rusty?

Pacers are quite ugly back then and even now

jcd · 14 October 2013, 10:53 AM

Here's mine. I know, not super cars or everyone's cup of tea, but I like them.

First is my 1984 20th Anniversary Mustang. It's one of 104 convertibles with a 2.3L turbo engine.

The other is a light desert tan 1984 Mustang GT. I don't know the actual production numbers. I really should contact Kevin Marti and find out. But it's more rare than the other car. These pics are from a photo shoot for a magazine 2 years ago.
