Hey Hemi fan,

What about the 1966 Shelby GT 350 Convertible! I saw one the other day in California. I asked the guy about it and he said that there was only 4 build! He said that he paid $300 grand for his at auction.

Thats a lot for a mustang!

how bout this




"This interesting car was a concept car built by PMD (Pontiac Motor Division). It was labeled as the "K" car for Kammback. The car never saw production but two models were specially constructed in Italy for GM's Design vice president David Holls. The concept was to put out a Firebird station wagon that would provide a performance car to the public. The write-up that is the fifth picture gives a good description of the origin of the car. A silver wagon and gold wagon were built (total of two) and were 100% factory original as they appear below. The gold wagon has been destroyed reportedly due to internal company issues.

From stationwagon.com: "The 10/1/98 issue of Old Cars magazine has a short article (pages 23-24) on an experimental 1978 Pontiac Firebird 'shooting brake' station wagon. Constructed for GM by Pininfarina, they were dropped from production plans because of their projected $24-25,000 price tags (in 1978 dollars). There were evidently two running versions constructed - one Firebird, and one Trans Am. It's doesn't look like they had a tailgate, but had two 'gullwing' doors that gave access to the rear cargo area. The Firebird was crushed by GM, but the Trans Am survived to be upgraded to 1979 specs and taken on the show circuit again. "


or






"This is the GTA Kammback. It was a concept car where Pontiac tried to design a Firebird with a station wagon style rear extension. It obviously never saw production but the car does have some fans out there and actually is not a bad looking car with a whole lot of functionality. This car may have been developed in an effort to take care of the most basic problem with third generation F-Bodies; a lack of space in the back end. A white wagon and red wagon were built (total of two). The white wagon has long since been destroyed in a fire, so this is now a one-of-a-kind and is all factory original with no modifications. Both these cars also featured the Recaro Seat Option, available from 1985 to 1986 (not to be confused with Recaro Edition, from 1982 - 1984).

Gert Hofman of Holland writes: "In 1986 somebody at Pontiac really lost it and designed a station [wagon] model for the Firebird and called it the Kammaback. Pontiac, of course, never produced it"

Im with Svenska, a Brabus is not rare, because I have seen quite a few. Brabus is an aftermarket tuner, so obviously they tune enough cars to be in business, and they have been for over 20 years. And as far as "most rare cars" goes, any car can be that...it just needs to be a one of a kind! I can build a car from scratch and it can be a pile of junk, but its still rare.

Hey about the Hispano Suiza. It's from Spain yes? Anyways...

There was some Spanish show that someone had taped from Europe and put on Public Access where I live. I was like "What the hell I've seen that car" and it continued to introduce more cars through out the show. I was curious a to what show it was and how gross the Suiza is. Hmm oh well.

One of the heads of BMW's M devision owns a FACTORY made M5 Wagon/Estate, the only one ever made. I thought that was pretty cool.
