suprisingly they made 2 million White 850R's, but only a few thousand black/yellow/red.... sorry monkey.gif


on a serious note... I know there is a chart for the T5R that shows total number of each color shipped to every country but not sure about the 96-97 R's

Well, it depends on your definition of rare. Certainly the R model is rare, in comparison to non R's.. but yes T5R is more rare than R. smile.gif

Its easy man.

I think the black humbers indicate the total number of black T-5Rs and the yellow , the total number of yellow T-5R. The number in bold Red is the total number of T-5Rs shipped to that country. Also, it says a total of 5000 T-5Rs were produced.

The 850R is a rare car plain and simple, especially when it is a red wagon with black interior smile.gif

In my experience, white has been the least common color. As far as what I've seen/found, it seems to be either red or black then white.
