Interesting list with some oddball, but potentially fun little cars.  
Good to see one of mine on the list!:tup:

There was a beautiful silver 80’s scirocco 16V in the parking lot of my work the other day. Still a good looking car.

Maybe not popular to the masses, they’re all oddball niche cars.  
I’d like to have a Conquest, Scirocco, or a 6spd Type II Legend.  
Hemmings Sports and Exotics had a similar list like this a few months back, though I can’t remember what they called it.

All of those cars can be found in buffalo, one of the poorest cities in the nation… so they can’t be that rare.

Impulse would make a cool rally car. I always thought conquests looked cool but I would never own one.
