As owner of an '81 Distillate, i was just curious how many of Distillates were made? Anyone have a good idea?
I know for sure there are two - yours and mine.
Three... ;D
I'd be curious to know too.
Four 8)
Sorry - we've never tracked individual models. There must be more than a thousand Distillates in their various forms, but I don't have a better estimate than that.
Well there ya go, and I know Mike has one so call it 1,005. ;)
Sorry, smart arse Monday here.

That's still an impressive number, considering they were a standard model for just a few years... (1978 - 1990-something?)
On Distillate trivia Mica, when did they become available in the U.S. markets? Seems like I read here somewhere the first ones were specifically for export to Japan... most of those I've seen were zebrawood, single AXY, and controls mounted on brass frontplate. (like Sonicus' Distillate)
Add one more...
1981 must have been a really busy production year for them... seems like there are a bunch of 1981 models.
Maybe it's one of those things like how you don't notice maroon Honda Civics (or what-have-you) until you buy one though! ;D
Mine is an 81 as well .
