AE86 doesn't need to be describe as "rare"... it is already kinda over valued in general. A genuine Black Limited... thats rare. In the US, a genuine rhd car is rare... but for $3k on top of what you pay on yahoo japan you can import your own.

Being olde (55) I remember when 64-66 Mustangs... V8 cars, could be purchased for $200. After all they made a million + Mustangs in those 3 years Try to find a 64-66 V8 Mustang priced anywhere near that today..........

As I see it... my AE71 coupe is pretty rare... you can't get replacement sheetmetal... glass is nearly non existent... try to find a set of tail lamps...

BUT I do like all of that... because I see more Tesla's driving around then I see E7 Corolla coupes

I can agree on the AE71. It's not so much of the use of the word rare as it is the extra couple grand added to the price when accompanied by the word. Like the 87 SR5 auto with a good body but the guy wanted 6320 which should include a free head check with purchase.

What about a 2TG with a cam grin of int322R and exh304R,. Along with everything swapped from stock to somewhat match a N2 spec engine,. The guy who is offering it to me for 3k worked for toysport in his days,?

I'd be willing to bet it would cost you more than this to replicate it... Now if it also has the full counterweight TRD crank :!:

2000gt has allways been rare, 351 produced says wiki. But i think ppl who says that hes car is rare means actually that it is "less common" than in the past.

Like ke20 corolla in here. In the 90's you could change pack of smokes to corolla :D But not anymoore, not even close. :lol:
