Why would this be the rarest FC ever? It's probably common as all get-out in Japan. Since they only had turbos, and many 'verts came with automatics, it only makes sense.

I imagine Japanese 'verts would be more common in Japan than, say, in Greenland .

They're really not too uncommon - probably about as common as you see a 'vert here in the States. The majority of 'verts I've seen have been automatics (just a different market), and I imagine that would hold true in Japan as well.

Automatic transmission = the devil

I think the reason you have not seen them is because we look at the hoped up 2nd gens in Japan. And lets face it if you bought an Auto you probably don’t want to hop it up. So there fore we would not see it.

My buddy in who was stationed in Japan had one...till he popped the motor in it. Then, he sold it and came back to the states. He said his first gen with a streetported 86 engine would walk on it pretty easily. CJ
