What do I look for on a 5000CS quattro?

[Ken Keith]

I've got the sticker for my car, and it's around $31k.  Mine's an '88 
5kcstq, with no sport seats and no heated seats (therefore no 
"winter package"?).

I don't know what other options I'm missing.  What am I missing?  I 
know I don't have the change holder that I saw in my 5kta donor 
car, but didn't see anything else jump out at me.

I wish there was a group eurolite purchase coming up again.  I wish 
I could afford to get in on it if there was one.  I withdraw the first 
wish for now.

Later,

Ken
