Why it matters
A small-series revival of the 1966 Abarth 1000 SP sports prototype, built on the Alfa Romeo 4C. It was presented as a limited-run car for collectors rather than a new model line, and reports on how many will be built have varied.
How rare is it?
Six separate kinds of rarity – never combined into one number.
