God, just tell me to shut up already. I have a clear anti-domestic bias and a lack of facts.

I guess I'm a sucker for rare-ish stuff. My last car was a 2009 G8 GXP; about 1829 total cars were built, of which only ~800 of the 1800 or so were manual, and then once you got down to options it was one of 42 or so (a common configuration relatively speaking. There's a couple GXP option combinations that are single digit numbers.)
While we had the GXP we also had a 2006 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, of which only 600 were imported in 2006. My wife totaled it last fall and I replaced it with another odd duck, a 2008 Saab 9-7x Aero, which is a somewhat de-Chevyified Trailblazer SS with a nicer interior but keeping the LS2. Only 500 9-7x Aeros were produced in 2008, and between '08 and '09 only something like ~621 total were built before things went south.
Now I drive an '05 E55 AMG which ironically is the most "common" of all these cars (at ~2200 produced in 2005 and less than 8,000 over the 2003-2006 run) and my wife has the Aero. Pretty happy with both actually.
If we're gonna do this poo poo then I win because my 1994 GMC Suburban was only one of two built with certain options.
