Moving to History – Restoration. That might be a better place for this question.

I'll just give you some food for thought since I have no numbers to back me up...

Point the first:
All thirdgen OEM convertibles are considered rare, and the fakes are just considered heavily modded.

Point the second:
Less than 50% of thirdgens produced each year were standard.

Conclusion:
If 3000 '91 convertables were made, my conservative estimate of '91 5 speed convertibles produced would be 1000.
