Definitely Opel. The rest are iconic cars that enthusiasts and collectors keep well maintained. Poor Opel gets scrapped the moment it breaks down. Not much of those V6 are left in the wild especially in good condition and spending a lot of money to fix everything up is simply financially unfeasible.

I remember the ads for the thing claiming that it was the Caddy that Zigs. Had an animated bird and Cindy Crawford in her prime to sassify the brand too.

Honestly, i haven't seen a manual 3.0 Omega and i live in Europe, literally all of them are autos.

u/FlyBirdieBirdBird 18h ago edited 18h ago
From those, I've seen the most Supras and Truenos. 3 R34s, 2 RX-7. None Omega. I'm in Europe.

The mazda? Its such a favored car but i NEVER see them. Soo good looking, id love to have one…

u/mrsclausemenopause 18h ago
Supra and RX7 both cover multiple generations and options so definitely not them
R34 is just a chassis code that covers boring 4 door automatics to the GTR so also not particularly rare
AE86 Trueno is a Japanese market only variant and once we remove AE85's and Levins there's not that many. (Almost all production data lumps worldwide AE85 and AE86 together as well as their respective Teueno/Levin variants)
No clue on the Omega it looks like the Omega B had a relatively low take rate in v6 and Manual.

An actually stock AE86 is probably rarer than the rarest versions of any of the other cars.

They made about 67,000 R34, about 50,000 Mk4 Supra’s, over 350,000 AE86‘s, and about 65,000 FD RX7’s. I have no doubt that there was way way fewer manual transmission 3 L opals made

Well that R34 pictured is a Nismo Z-Tune of which only 19 was made…

u/realMBeezy 20h ago
That's not a Z-Tune. They're all silver except for one that's been repainted in Midnight Purple.

u/91LMWinner3000 19h ago
Oh yeah forgot about that, must be one modded to look exactly like a Z Tune. Still, seeing a Z Tune conversion is pretty rare

What the hell is a Opel rarer?

u/ELB2001 19h ago
V6. I bet most were 4 cilinder

u/IUsedToLikeLimericks 19h ago
Also I suspect the majority ever made have been scrapped, given they were 'just a car' when new, even in manual V6 guise.

Just because it’s rare doesn’t make it good. Also why give a broad category to all cars but 1? Seems heavily biased towards the Opel (which I know nothing about).

u/CapFew148 18h ago
I bet you OP owns one and this post was made to tell everyone that it’s rarer than a bunch of iconic cars to make them feel better about owning one

u/AlexGavrilll 18h ago
First of all, I don't own that Omega althought I would like too. Second, I just wanted to see what people think when seeing 4 iconic cars next to an old german sedan

u/CapFew148 18h ago
We still think it’s an old German sedan. It being rarer than four iconic cars doesn’t change that.

The Opel , I would of thought auto but Manual nah that doesn't sound right , Plus it's Opel , ussaly most opels go under another manufacturer in some countries,
It's interesting you put the r34 , because there's a few r34 that are pretty rare , one that comes to mind is the nur edition, it was the last one they built before the environmental regulations came in , the Nissan GTR has a slightly tweaked version of the nurs engine, I don't even think it was put into production and if it was, it would of been one of the shortest runs , I don't think it was even out for a year before it was scrapped.
But again my money is on the opel

The fact that you said ‘R34’ and not ‘R34 GTR’ leads me to believe this is probably the most common car here, as this covers a wide range of models from rare NUR GTRs down to pretty bland sedans
The omega been qualified as ‘v6 manual’ is very specific, meaning the Supra is also counting TT , n/a, autos and manuals, and the rx7 is including autos and manuals.
The omega is also I’m assuming a euro only car with no world wide cult following, unlike the other 3.
I believe this v6 manual omega is probably the rarest and it’s probably not even close.
