11 Super Rare Cars Of All Time!

misinformation about cars and everything

[@steverushforth7009]

Toyota only made 2 convertible 2000GTs. They were specially made for use in a James Bond movie because Sean Connery was too tall to fit in the standard model.

[@lancerevell5979]

On the Bristol cars, narrator can't seem to decide on pronouncing the car names correctly or otherwise. 🤨 The sad truth is no company handbuilding a small number of high quality custom cars can remain in business for long. No matter the car quality, auto companies can only make profit on mass sales.

There are some beautiful cars in here... ...and some truly hideous. Thanks for the upload🙏👍

[@TygonBC]

Cool video. Some of the footage and pronunciations were a little off eg. film of a Miura when talking about the 2000GT, and "beau" is pretty much pronounced "bo", but you'd be hard pushed to find anything else about the Triumph Acclaim Avon Turbo on KZbin. Some cool cars and the info seems to be very accurate.

[@somebloke5565]

I want to know how a 'Jaguar' become a "Jagwahhhhr". I say put a random 'W' everywhere. A Ford becomes a "Forwooord". A Chrysler a "Ker-Why-sler?" The possibilities are endless. Always dreamed of a Wolls-Woyce Wilver Cloud and a Werrari 250 WTO.

"The LTD LX is a symbol of a time when American car companies were taking risks and trying new things" Shows a boring bland shitbox... *laughs in Citroen* Also, the Triumph Acclaim might be rare now, but it certainly wasn't in its days... there's a difference between a car that's only been made in very small numbers, and cars that didn't really survive times in great numbers. Okay, the Avons were really rare.

[@dominicgibson9529]

Great video...just a small point on the XJ12 segment, some of the pictures used actually show the Daimler model. Jags had a plain edge radiator, whereas the Daimler had the "fluted" top to their radiators. In many ways they were essentially the same car, although the Daimlers were seen as the more luxurious vehicle.

[@milesromanus7041]

You can make huge lists of super rare cars and be sure you still missed a bunch. As a Romanian, there are seceral Dacia cars with under 10 units ever made, like the Dacia 2000, Dacia MaxiBreak, Dacia 1320 "ax în cap", Dacia Extase,.... And that's just Romania. Cool video idea, but you could make a lot more episodes of it.

[@top.intel0]

Yup even 10 episodes on this topic won't be enough! Yeah, I'll try to make more videos about this topic

[@Ardent445]

What is so rare about the Jaguar XJ12? there are plenty on the road. Also why the cut to a Lambo Muira in the segment of the Toyota GT 2000?

[@darthwiizius]

Depends which era, they went right into the 2000s. The MK1s are pretty rare because they mostly got scrapped due to fuel costs, most of the V12s averaged 6-8 miles to the gallon at the time. I remember my old metalwork teacher at school bought a pristine low mileage one in 1982 for £50, that's all people could get for them. Lesser ones ended up in the crushers, breakers yards didn't even bother pulling them apart most of the time.

"... aluminum became too expensive and they switched to steel... ... which made it more costly to make"? (re: Panhard)

[@Decybello]

About couple of those cars, you've said things like - "unique, very rare, very expensive and hard to get, shown those times when car manufacturers were willing to experiment etc etc" which is a steaming pile of rubbish...Cars like Marcos M70 or that completely stupid Ford LXsomethingXTFXXXX are just cars, which are rare, because they didn't make any sense to buyl they are no unique or different, they're just plain ugly... And not even saying anything about that, that many of those stupid, idiotic cars killed many of those more obscure automakers, and that should be enough to realise, that those are just shitty cars...

[@bryanpalmer9660]

The Marcos M70 styling was not how it was originally envisaged,the kindest comment was that it looked more like a prototype car than a production car

Super rare...my nimrod kit car is produced only 15 times plus prototype...nown existing today..the prototype plus 4 cars....thats pretty rare

[@00Zy99]

First up is the Bristol 412, a fancy British car from the 1970s. It was made by a company that used to build airplanes! The 412 had a unique roof you could take off and store in the trunk. Only 98 were ever made, so spotting one today is super rare. Next, we've got the Ginetta G21. This little sports car was built by a small British company in the early 1970s. It was designed to be fun to drive but also practical enough for everyday use. Ginetta only made about 80 of these, so they're pretty hard to find now. The Panther J72 is another cool British car from the 1970s. It looked like an old-fashioned 1930s sports car but had modern engines under the hood. Each one was built by hand, making them extra special. Moving on to France, we have the Panhard PL 17. This car was super light and aerodynamic, which made it really fuel-efficient. It even won a big rally race in 1961! Sadly, the company that made it went out of business not long after. From America, there's the Ford LTD LX. This was a family car with a muscle car heart. Ford only made about 3,260 of them in 1984 and 1985, so they're pretty uncommon today. The TVR Tasmin is another British sports car that's often forgotten. It had a wedge-shaped design that was really futuristic for its time. TVR was a small company, so they didn't make too many of these. Let's not forget the Triumph Acclaim. This was actually based on a Honda design, which was pretty unusual for a British car back then. It was reliable and popular, but not many have survived to today. We'll also check out the Toyota 2000GT, Japan's first supercar. Only 337 were ever made, and they're worth millions now! It even starred in a James Bond movie. Finally, there's the Jaguar XJ12, a luxury car with a massive 12-cylinder engine. It was super fast for its size but used a ton of gas. That, plus its high price, means not many were sold. Aside from the cars listed in the description, the other ones are the Marcos Mantis and Bond Equipe.

[@mainlandtoisland7260]

The ligier JS2 is a beautiful sounding and looking exotic. I know a gentleman that owns one in yellow

[@csj9619]

XJ is the best looking Jaguar in my opinion. I recall it being one of my early favorites, behind the Porsche 911 and Chevy Camaro.

[@darthwiizius]

The MK2 had the most expensive body shell of any production car at the time, it was curve detail loaded. When Ford bought Jaguar they immediately abandoned the design because they could find no way of mechanically mass producing the body panels which until then were still being mostly hand made and took a lot of fettling and panel beating to get fitted to a reasonable standard. Thus you then got the squared off XJs, they followed the rough dimensions, they still looked sleek but alas no longer beautiful. Later iterations were a little more rounded off and featured aluminium body shells until in the end even the V12s were pretty much abandoned and replaced with V8s. Ford on one hand saved the company but on the other hand tarnished the brand, and their biggest mistake? Flogging it off literally just weeks before sales of Jags exploded around the World.
