Just to add spice to the thread:
MKIV Toyota Supra was rarer still, with a run from mid-1993 through 1998, a TOTAL of less than 12,000 cars, now that's rare.

I've only saw one other S when i drove from NC to FL to TX and it was being pulled on a trailer on I95.

There is only one other S in glorious Goldsboro NC. It's probably only slightly bigger than fantaS2k's cul-de-sac.

is that total cars or total twin turbos? i think that number is off i see at least one a day.....might just be my area but i somehow doubt that. Maybe 12000 a year? twin turboes are rare but the nome turbos are fairly easy to come across.

I probably see 2-3 a day around here...Very rarely will I not sight another S2K driving around. I know of at least 10 S2Ks that live around my area (Laguna/Aliso/Mission).

*edit* I forgot to add I live in Cali

It's definitely uncommon, but I don't think it's rare. To me, 'rare' gets to the point where there maybe only a hundred or so of 'em in your state, or even less. My Prelude Type SH was rare.... it probably was the only 2001 silver Type SH in the state of Michigan. I bet my '04 Suzuka Blue S2000 will be rare in the same sense. But is the S2000 overall rare? No, not when I see one every other week... that's uncommon but they're out there.

There are about 25 houses in my neighborhood & someone else just bought a black S2k.

Another rare car:

MKII MR2

Rare enough for me!
