There were 8000 Z1’s produced, they are a bit rare now
Scarce, yes. But a quick search shows that you can choose from 10 Z1s on one site if you want to buy one. Rare is when you have to look for 6 months to find even one for sale. A 507 is truly rare!
So is an M1, which I'd much rather own than the rather odd Z1 - but they do have similar noses!
A chap I knew owned what was probably exceptionally rare, a 1950s BMW sedan with small V8 (502, I think). Although they did make a fair number of them, they weren't valued that highly and many were allowed to rust away, so I expect that there are few still in good shape today.

Just because there are 10 for sale doesn’t mean they aren’t rare.

Suggest the title ought to be amended to ‘Rare & Desirable’.
The British Leyland Allegro is now a rare Coupe... brings shivers just writing its name...

I think that Edsels are rare for a reason - no one bought them in the first place. Trabants are now pretty rare - but about as far from desirable as you can get.

Yeah baby.. closing on this bad boy next week. 34k miles, clean AF.
Sold my Interlagos/black coupe in 2015 that I'd owned since new, regretted it ever since. This will be a worthy replacement.
