I saw this at a dinky car show (like 15 cars) at a local town bank a couple years ago. Started telling my girlfriend that any time you see a Cobra it's actually a replica...then I saw the build tag. I look up the VIN online and it turns out it had just sold for about $900,000.

I parked next to the convertible version of one of those once. Beautiful car.

I shit you not my neighbor had one back when I was 13. Never brought it out except for the Dream Cruise, and he moved away a couple years after I started to live there.

Apparently he was bros with the Lingenfelters.
No clue where he went, but damn that car was badass.

Seen a lot of crazy shit, but sometimes the coolest one isn't always the most rare. 911 4.0RS was one of 500 built I think. Plus I've seen a few 918's, LaFerrari and other 'Rarris, McLarens, and random classics that are probably really rare.

And the crown jewel of his collection, a Cosmo undergoing restoration. I got to sit in it, it was cramped as hell and I'm 5'7.

He also had a Triumph roadster, a Shiro Special Z31, an sa22c, a shell of a JDM 240z, and a 48 Ford.

About 15 years ago, a guy in Springdale Arkansas had a delorean. Never saw it on the road but they're pretty easy to spot when parked in a driveway. Probably not the rarest I've ever seen, but rare considering the population density of the area to have a delorean.

I did a bit of shadowing with Unique Performance in Dallas, Texas when I was 18. They built the resto-mod GT500s like in Gone in Sixty Seconds. I saw all of the models from the 450hp ones to the super rare 700hp supercharged models.

There's also a dealership down the road that I visited with my girlfriend that had an FF, F12, BAC Mono, C8 Aileron, Murcielago SV, etc. Super cool stuff.

Cord 810.

It broke down right by my house. Nice old fella was driving it and was happy to hear that I had guessed it was a Cord.

Not even a week later I ended up seeing another one driving around the same neighborhood and have seen it two other times since but haven't been able to get a picture.

Well I saw from the rear and I immediately thought it was italian. Then they pulled over and I slowed down and looked at the front and went full autistic when I saw those two blue squares.

I've already seen enough of them here in Scottsdale AZ to not care anymore.

I actually hate living here because I see so many nice cars that I rarely get excited anymore.

About the only time I've geeked out to a modern-ish car recently was an Audi B5 S4 Avant in Imola yellow that's driven by one of the Chef's at the hotel I'm renovating. That kind of car is rare as fuck but nobody would even realize it. One of two in Arizona.

Otherwise it's classics like the sideways Ferrari 250, Dodge Power Wagon and Cord 810 I posted above that tickle my jimmies.
>>
>>14864674

Probably this, considering it's a one-off.

The rarest production car I've ever seen was probably either a Vector (the later model, can't remember the name) at Cars & Coffee back when it was in Irvine, or a Cizeta V16T at the Beverly Hills Concours back in the day.

Rarest I've seen on the road was probably an Enzo, way back in '05 or so, which I saw on Mulholland Drive.

Speaking of Mulholland, I saw an LM002 there a few weeks ago, but it was leaving as I was arriving and so I couldn't take a pic.

Outside the motor museums, right?
I'm seeing one every day. It's my car.
Nothing spectacular comes in mind at the moment. I've seen a few Volvo Amazones last summer and two Saab 96 recently.

I've seen a few replicas of this. They were built to crash in some movie.

Daily driving something like that. Epic.

>>14866069
Yeah. Running the plates on it reveals it's a 1923 Ford Touring. First registered in Norway in.. well.. 1923.

>>14866090
Where did you saw it? Wondering where it was built. Fords were built all over the world.
>>
>>14866119
Jevnaker, Norway. A tiny town an hour north of Oslo. F-licence plate from those days means it was registered in Gjovik, an hour and a half further north.

Some Fords were built in Riga, Latvia in late 30's.

Speaking of: wasn't there a 400hp version of a GC8? I somehow remember seeing a subaru impreza R 400 or something along these lines..can't find anyhting on the net though..
>>
>>14866180
yes

>>14866011
Oh, nice. How's Subaru as an employer? I know Japanese companies can be pretty bad sometimes.

I'm in PR and hoping to eventually work for a major auto manufacturer, and a Japanese one could be cool since it'd mean maybe getting to go over there from time to time and stuff.

>>14866157
You actually care about a 430 with a pretentious bodykit? Who gives a shit, really.
Unless it's a smaller scale homologation supercar, it's a redundant exercise in wank.

They wanted something like 85 for it I think? It was one of the cheaper cars in the little show room, but imo the best looking

If this is original there's a huge chance I rode in it 10 years ago I burned the back of my leg on the sidepipes I rode in it at mid ohio

Maybe you should go back there, see if you also dropped your punctuation.

Are shelby cobras rare? One of my buddies dads sold it off to make room for more projects, didn't like it desu.
>>
>>14862311
These are also rare in EU. I would like to own any Sierra some day.

>>14866205

It's not so bad from my personal experience. I'm in the performance division so its lots of true car guys. We have a mutual resentment for the bean counters though because they ruin everything. Unfortunately they also control the budgets. We could do a lot more without them mucking everything up. But we try our best with what we are given.

>Are shelby cobras rare?

The real ones, yes. Replicas are like sand on a beach.
>>
>>14865677
>>14865812
Are all of them worth that much or just some special models?
>>
>>14866305
There's only a handful of them. They're all expensive. Especially in the current valuable-car-market. Which has become ridiculous in the past 10 years.
