Cars that have gone extinct.

I saw a mint Pontiac 6000 today that looked like it was in a time capsule since it was built. I think this is the first time in years I've seen a 6000 out in the wild. What cars haven't you guys seen in a while?

I saw one like a few years ago where I live...i was going to ask about it a week later and it was gone

A lot of the cars from the 90's have gone extinct.

I no longer see any Dodge Neons, Chevy Cavaliers, Ford Probes.

Saw a couple of them last weekend







The one with the gold Gotti's is mine, they are all 5 Alpine Turbo's.

Saab 900 SPGs. Especially the early ones like pictured. Didn't have huge production numbers, liked to rust, and had weak trannies. Seems to be why most are found in salvage yards now.



Last flat nose SPG I saw (outside of a meet) was in a salvage yard with the floor totally rusted out. Had over 200k on it.

I've always loved these cars. The one's AMC brought to north america were crap.

Not to mention pretty questionable electrical systems. My brother had an SPG for a couple years. It was in good shape, but it spent a lot more time being towed to the shop than it did driving.

The only thing I liked about it was that the reversed longitudinal engine layout meant zero torque steer... when the car could be convinced to start and run.

Citroen LNA, can't find them anywhere. Friend of mine owns one out of maybe 8 or 13 left on the road in Holland. Even in France we only spotted two of them. Awesome small little car that comes with a 650 air-cooled boxer or a 1.1 4 cil. engine

Yeah, I've never owned one, but I've heard they're the type of car that is either super reliable and will go forever (there's one in a Museum with over 1,000,000 miles on the original engine and 800,000 on the second tranny) or they'll never run. lol
