Name it and I've probably seen it, thanks to living in LA and going to Pebble Beach and other concours events and to the original Cars & Coffee.

I'd guess that out of cars that saw any kind of production, it'd be a Cizeta V16T (Rodeo Drive concours, 10-ish years ago) or a Vector W8 (C&C, just before they left the old Irvine location.)

I don't have pictures of either of those, so here's a Bizzarrini that I saw race at the Monterey Historics in 2012. I don't think this is as rare as the other two, but it's still pretty uncommon.

>>
>>17138633
Americans. Apparently a clueless one too, since like you said, Automatics are a big no-no for rotaries, and an automatic driver is much more likely to treat a rotary like a normal car. Plus, isn't the Renesis considered to be worse than the RX-7's engine, in power output, apex seal durability, and even fuel economy?

Peel P50 comes to mind, only 47 made. Though to be completely fair that was in a museum. I saw a factory supercharged Qvale Mangusta in an import garage in Florida. According to them there were only ever three of them. Wasn't a different model though, just a factory option.

I haven't seen anything notably rare just out and about on the street.

Is it because a human can control the gears better than the computer can when it comes to optimal RPM for fuel efficiency? Or because a human can redline whenever he wants and an auto tries to avoid that whenever possible?

Rotaries have to redline regularly to burn off carbon deposits. Excess carbon deposits will unseat apex seals.

The autos can't rev as high as the manuals, and in addition to that I believe they may have lacked the same amount of oil injectors as the manuals.

Ah, as I thought. I ask because I'm an American dumb enough to buy a rotary engine car, but the only RX-7s that aren't beat to shit in my area seem to be automatics, so I was thinking of getting one and then eventually doing a swap to a manual transmission.

>I believe they may have lacked the same amount of oil injectors as the manuals
A quick google of the parts needed for a conversion seems to indicate this isn't the case, as oil injectors don't come up in the list.

Most auto gearboxes have a position on the shifter that tells it to hold a gear, they don't even have that?

no, compare its output to the last naturally aspirated 13b before
>apex seal durability
no, it's not even boosted

no, that was one of the main reasons for switching to side exhaust ports

people just sperg out over the renesis because it's difficult to add forced induction, and mazda handled the bad ignition system problems in the worst way possible. or they're just shitposting, either way.

Yes they can, they have paddle shifters and a manual mode on the regular shifter.

The problem is that no one actually red lines them. Mostly old people bought the auto's and babied the fuck out of the engines causing them to carbon lock.

They have a HUGE price range depending on whether they're steel or alloy cars, ones that were raced, and of course the options like tool rolls and luggage set.

They can go for as low as around $700k and up to a couple of million.

I used to see a Futurliner pretty frequently when I was a kid, rusting away on a side street in the San Fernando Valley. I'm pretty sure it's the one that was owned and restored by Bob Valdez, but I'm not sure where it is now, the last info I can find is that it was up for sale in 2008.

Speaking of things I saw when I was a kid, I used to go past Dean Jeffries' old shop on the way to school every day, and this thing was parked out front for years. It was in pretty bad shape after sitting outside for 20 years (it would've been '98-'00 or so), looks like it's since been restored.

Ferrari LaFerrari. Someone locally collects Ferraris and has one.
There's a bunch of classic ones as well, but I can't identify those on sight.

The rarest vehicle is probably the Tiger tank, and 50% of the Tank Museum's collection.is rare and one-off vehicles they were given when the army had finished playing with them.
With the rest being half captured vehicles and half basic british army vehicles. There's also a scattering of foreign ones they've had donated for display, like the S-tank and their pack of Leopard 1s.

That car was rear-wheel drive unlike the Scirocco, making it the better car even if it's a blatant copy.

Rarest I've seen on the road, not including car shows etc
Edmonton and calgary have a (sort of )surprising amount of nice cars

Aston Martin one 77 but it was at a dealer. Also a Zonda roadster but also at a dealer. I had an Enzo drive with me for a bit and he saw me taking a video so he did a drive by on me. That's probably the coolest.

Was it yellow with brown interior and in California? There was a guy out there that drove one all the time.
>>
>>17153205
No. Just where I am because I live in Wisconsin and everything rusts here.

They pretty rust prone from what I hear too.
>>
>>17168557
Nope. Exterior was white, I think the interior was black. SE-Michigan, so I saw it for the week of the Dream Cruise (it didn't have plates). I'm fairly certain he lived in my neighborhood but never found out where he lived.

i have seen a BMW M1 driving around on public roads in Narragansett RI
>>
>>17138387
1936 REO Speedwagon at a car show.
Rarest car I saw "in the wild" (not at a show or meet) was some random lambo at a gas station in Cali.
>>
>>17138465
that's cool as shit. i've seen model t's but never a paddy wagon.
>>
Not exactly rare but some old dude came in to my shop in a 4-door e36 M3 the other day. Never seen one before because I live in the sticks

Saw this at a tiny car show at my tiny town bank. Started telling my girlfriend it was a replica until I saw the build plate. It had sold for $800,00 a few months before.

I saw a fucking SLR on the STREET not at a show. There are only a few SLRs in my entire state of WA.

1967 Shelby GT500

I vowed from that day to purchase a replica.
>>
Probably a Rolls Royce phantom and I lived in nyc for 10 years.
>>
>>17143078
There's one around me too, never realized they were rare, but I guess I don't see too many orange GTIs now that you mention it.
>>
>>17143287
It's being stolen at this very moment.
>>
>>17143078
It's because of dealer allocations. The local VW dealer probably got one for some reason, and I'll bet the dude got a good deal after it sat for a few months because nobody wanted to pay extra for a special color.

I know a guy who got a steal on a Lime Rock edition E92 M3 for similar reasons.

>>17138387

In the wild: Cord 812 Supercharged, looked just like pic related.
Ever: Probably something at LeMay's. I didn't get to really take in everything I saw there since I went in like 90 minutes before they closed.

Doug Demuro lives in my area. I've seen him drive his GTR & his Viper.

Neither are "rare" but they are extremely specific cars. Even came across his GTR on craigslist and used the opportunity to just say hi- He responded and said thanks for watching his vids,

1990 Consulier GTP-LX. This was in High River and it is the only own known to be in Canada.

Is that right outside of bijan's?

It is probably Bijan's Son's car then, but could easily be a customer's car
