Yep, they only made like 50 or something. The guy who used to post in the "Supercars spotted" thread from Tokyo snapped one on the road once, confirmed as a real deal SL73. He actually photographed some sweet cars, there is a much better selection on the street, year round in Japan.

Granted, these may not be the best cars ever produced by each country but that would make a damn nice collection parked at the front of the house. Covers nearly all bases.
