Currently have a 2000 Audi A6 2.7TT with 155k miles, and my :siren: stock turbos aren't blown! :siren: Rarer yet, its has a manual. Beat that craplords

Serious answer:
Had a VW Corrado back in the day, something like 3.5-5 thousand of them in the states depending on where you get your info. Worldwide, hell of a lot more, but pretty uncommon in the US due to nobody ever wanting to pay a lot of money for a premium or sporty VW.
Had an Audi 90 Quattro 20V. Similar production numbers to the Corrado. Same story, Audi didn't sell many of them because they were still trying to recover from the 60 Minutes Unintended Acceleration debacle. Incredibly pretty car imho, sounded amazing, was fairly slow and had very expensive parts.

Still have a 1960 Triumph TR3A sitting in the garage waiting to get painted. I'm pretty sure the initial production numbers wouldn't indicate any sort of rarity, but the vast majority of them you see these days (all old triumphs, most MGs, occasional lotus) have been attacked by somebody who thinks they know what they are doing with bodywork and as such are now 50% lovely bondo work. That or they sit in a driveway or a yard with a half done engine swap project that both started and stopped in 1987.
