The awesome rare car thread

[monoblanco]

I'll begin.
Had never heard about this little beastie before I found this article.

"Given that only 200 road-going examples were built to appease Group B’s sanctioning body, finding a 205 Turbo 16 in Europe is nothing short of a miracle, but in North America? C’est incroyable. Peugeot sold the random assortment of 505s and 405s here in North America during the ’80s, but its cute little 205 hatch — let alone the hardcore rally version — never crossed its way into les Etats Unis."

The 206 is definitely on my short list of cars I would like to own. I have a soft spot for rare cars though.
Some I used to own:
Citroen CX GTi Turbo (Not the actual car)

BMW 850Csi 6 speed

Current fleet:
Lotus Elan M100 SE (504 Imported to US)

Maserati Biturbo Si (approx 300 fuel injected Si cars imported to US)

I really need to get the finished pics of that car posted up...

Future plans:
Renault R5 Turbo 2

Lancia Delta Integrale

Audi 50

Although not that rare, not available in the US and my dream car...
Renault Clio Sport

Sorry for the long post, this is my favorite automotive topic. Keep 'em coming!

I saw a R5 turbo sell for so cheap.. It was MINT, with 30,000km.. Collector's dream!

[aintnothang]

If only they had Lancia Delta.Integrales in the us. I love there stylish.

I used to have the 205 GTi 1.9. It was awesome fun to drive!

Though not very beautiful, quite rare here in the states.

1991 Audi 200 20vt Quattro Avant

They shipped over 150 of them, and they were only made in 91. It's got a 20v I5 turbo engine that made 240hp stock, and with a mild tune it would put just about 280hp at the wheels. It retailed for what would be $80,000 today with inflation. This car was the direct predecessor to the S6.

I'm lucky enough to own one, however mine is a poor example due to it's entire life being exposed to copious amounts of road salt, and 300,000mi.

This is a pic of a clean example.

I can't believe there have been 13 posts with no mention of either of these cars.
