I had one and sold it. I don't know why a seller would even bother quoting a (dubious) piece of info like that, since "rarity" simply doesn't affect value! There's plenty of things which are "rare" because they're rubbish - example, the Dacia Denem. (I'm not saying auto cabbys are, just that rare doesn't mean better).
