    None of those are obscure.
    The 1922 Paige Daytona Tourer, 1962 Checker Aerobus and HMV Fee-Way would like to talk to you.

    Corvair is a 4-wheeled car that drives like a 3-wheeled one with sticky tire, The beetle's origins has something in WW2, and the Pinto has a deadly problem already discovered during developpement

    Yes, I think most car enthusiasts know that. Do you know what ‘obscure’ means?

    “not discovered or known about; uncertain”
    Basically, an obscure car is a car not many people know exist.

    I'd say anyone interested in classic vehicles should at least know the name.

    the real obscure one here is the Electrovair, an electric corvair with silver-zinc batteries.

    Rarest car I’ve seen on the street is either a 1958 Edsel, a Delorean, a r32 Gtr, or an AMC Javelin. As for museum cars, that title probably goes to the Gaz 13 Chaika.

    The one I found was pink, sitting in the back parking lot of an abandoned Denny's. I don't remember if it was a Ranger or a Corsair, but my dad and I could barely believe that it was an Edsel to begin with.

    The rarest car I saw, was a Nissan R390 road car. At the Peterson Museum in California. all the way back in 2019. The coolest car I also saw, was at the 2024 New York Auto Show. It was the Lamborghini Reveluto.. Very cool indeed.
