Are these rare (in good shape)? Toronado Trofeo, for those wondering.

Yes. Be on the lookout for optional suede interior.

90-92 are quite rare. Most are in piss poor shape now, but there is the potential for gems. They also came with the optional touch screen color Vehicle Information Center . If the VIC goes out, good luck finding another one/repairing it. Otherwise, typical GM 90's drivetrain and other technology. The cars did have a Corvette style mono-leaf spring in the rear with air shocks (FE3 Sport suspension) too. Kinda neat.

I miss the one my father had:

When I was born, I came home in the hospital in one of these, it was red. It had the touch screen and all. It also won my parents 40k in a lawsuit against the dealer that sold it.

Rare doesn't mean desireable...

They bought it from a pretty big dealer around where I'm from, they were pretty well known for being honest as well, so they trusted what they told them. When they bought it, they bought it having a clear title and 0n paper saying it had never been crashed. Fast forward a few weeks at a get together with some friends, a friend that worked at a body shop wanted to look at it, because he thought it was cool. They get to the point where they pop the hood, and as soon as he looks down, he says "You know it's been crashed, right?" They said no. Then after months of trying to get the dealer to reimburse them for how much they over payed for the car, since they had it on paper that they lied, they had to sue. And they won. And instead of saving that money, like a smart young couple would do, they bought 7 acres on a private lake and never built on it and lost their ass when they sold it.
