I saw my rarest car yesterday, a Ferrari 250 GTO. For those who dont know, only 39 were made and this guy was driving his. I could tell it was definatly not a show car, it wasnt it bad shape but not show quality. What about everyone else here?

Sure it wasn't a kit?

I've seen....hmmm...nothing special. A diablo Jota, Ferrari 355's.

Nothing that most everybody hasn't seen.

Well it wasnt a kit, i looked up a pic about 2 min after i saw it and it was defintly a 250 GTO.

Some people actually have character and drive thier 250 GTO's. I would if I had one. I'd also make sure that it was in a bit better shape though. As for the rarest car, probably either the Silver 360 Modena or the Light Blue Bentley Azure.

Whats the rarest care u have ever seen being driven?

Hmmmm..... I briefly cared that Tim McVeigh was going to die to slowly, but it quickly passed. http://www.contrabandent.com/pez/contrib/Bizkit/confused.gif

The rarest car with real "wow" factor being driven was an F40, but the rarest cars I've seen on the road (not in a showroom) are probly: 2nd rarest, my friends '98 Integra Type-R, only 500 NA versions made in '98 spec, and 1st, a Bitter SC (parked not driving, but still on the road, and driven to that spot)

Actually, add a '99 ZX2 S/R to that list. They only made 110 S/R models in 99.

i have seen several rare cars. I have seen two f40, an f50, a mercedes 300sl, a diablo vt all of which were being driven to and from car club shows, and i have ridden in my friends dads buick GNX which of only 554 were made.

I saw one of the 200 1992 Vipers and one of the 500 (or so) Honda EV-Pluses. I saw one of the 50 1963 Chrysler Turbines (one of the 6 to still exist and one of two that run) and two of the 51 Tuckers. I saw one of the two Lincoln-Continental Mark II convertibles ever built and one of the six McLaren F1s imported to the US.

I drove both of the first generation Subaru Impreza WRXs (one was an STi) imported to the US by the factory. I drove one of the 50 (or so) GM Impacts produced.

I saw Jay Leno in what I think was a McLaren F1. I thoought that you could drive them on the road.

I have also seen a Ferrari F-50 driving on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu.

There are six that are legal to drive on the road in the US.

I heard seven;

1. Guy in Texas
2. One at Newport Autosport
3. Ralph Lauren owns 2 in the US.
4. Leno?
5. One in Pennsylvania (SP)
6. ?
7. ?


Note: Some of these might travel around a fair bit but #1-3 I am definately sure exist at their locations.

I have seen one of the Corvette Grand Sports (five were built in 1963 all had 550hp and weighed 1900 lbs) being driven...it was only from a trailer to a showroom though.

There is a McLaren F1 for sale in one of my older DuPont Registries (not the Newport one). I'll check out the address later.

Also, while I was in Cali I saw a couple of those Honda EV-Pluses, a couple Rav4 EV's, and a couple of big wierd Nissan wagons at a rental place, probably electrics. Also, I'm really into Euro and Japanese home market vehicles so I was quite excited to see a blue R34 Skyline GT-R and a new red Alfa Romeo 156.

there is a 95 McLaren in this months duPont...

Nobody believes me, but I saw Bruce Willis driving what appeared to be a Brabus, the kind that looks like a mercades(sp.?) 150,000 USD car. It was on a back road in Arkansas. Anyone know if actually owns one? Brabus that is.

I believe you. :)

thanx:)

Driving the rarest car i seen was a Ferrari 512tr i think the model number is not to sure but i remember it was a 512 something

At car shows ive seen heaps of awsome rare cars.

Sweet, I love those. If it had 4 circular taillights, it was a 512M, but more likely the (much better looking, IMO) 512TR, which is an update of the Testarossa.
