This question has been brought up before..

No one knows exactly how many are left.. I thought I knew all the FD owners in town, but once in awhile, I meet someone who lives in B'ham, who had it for years!
My guess used to be 3-4K.. but now I'm thinking 5-6k
Here is a quote from someone who talked to Cameron Worth (Pettit Racing).

When you think about it, US versions are more proper car and more rare (13k VS 40+K).
Right hand drive cars are slightly harder to mod since the exaust and steerings are on the same side. I've heard someone in Japan saying that they prefer to get US spec FDs because of this reason.. I could be wrong.. US SPEC RULES!!!! (just kidding DMRH)

This means that 3300 cars were still being used for the road. Additional unregistered cars would also exist (track/race cars etc.). Not sure how you would count every one.

Bringing back to life. :-D
Just wanted to let you all know just received my FD out of the shop 8-19-05, has a salvaged title but she runs once more.....well...kinda.
Bought the car wrecked, front right upper/lower controlarm ripped off at an 75mph impact on the freeway. Sooooo +1 to that list,
Needing help for engine work but i'll post elsewhere.
Take care all!
