I used to think that the 240SX convertible is the rarest type of 240SX out there, but according to this review (http://www.cars.com/carsapp/national/?mkid=36&act=search&rvid=28319&mdid=329&srv=review&yr=1992), more than 10,000 were sold in the first three months since their introduction in May, 1992.
According to this DOT page (http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/theft/theftsearch3.cfm), 27,033 240SXs were made in 1992, 21,471 in 1993, and only 1,167 in 1994. That adds up to 49,671 240SXs (all types) made in those years. I guess a large chunk of it, or over 10,000 at least, are convertibles. That could explain why I've seen more 240SX convertibles on the road than S14as.
That makes the S14a (1997-1998) the rarest 240SX, with only 5,833 produced. :P
Just wanted to point that out to everyone who, like me, thought that the convertible is the rarest. ^_^;
