But where’s the online community for these rare machines? You’d think a rare beast like that would have one.

Though, most examples are pretty trashed.

They did suffer from horrible wheel trims.

I have inspected and driven two examples. The one was great with a trashed interior, the other had some steering issue that made it difficult to assess. I should have bought the second one, because it was immaculate, but the steering issue scared me away. Another concern is you never get your investment back. LaForzas don't have good resale values.

There is a really nice one on eBay now, with a proportional price tag. I have seen lesser examples go for $3-$5K.
