Shit it's already rare to see one on the road in Europe, let alone the US! This is as precious as any Ferrari/Lambo/exotics!

Yea I know. I think that the cars were never officialy imported into the US so I was greatfully supprised.

You almost don't see them in Europe, so it is quite amazing you spotted it in the US. Nice plate too.

Does anybody has an idea why they are even so rare in Europe, besides the relative small numbers made? Are they all crashed?

Probably most of them are cherished by collectors... there is a red one in mint conditions owned by one of my granparent's neighbours, and in the last 10 years I spent there before moving in Lausanne, I saw it outside his garage just once...
