What do I look for on a 5000CS quattro?

Um-
Just to put things into perspective- A Porsche 911 was about
$34k brand new in '86, when my 5ktq was about $30k. Now a 911
is a $70k car as are the A8s.

A $35k car back in '83 was a _very_ expensive car. You could go
buy an Accord for around $10k back then, IIRC. UrQs were basically
exotic cars back then, without the cachet that Porsche or Ferrari
had.

Well actually, the 5000cstq's were in the high $20's low 30's.  To put it
into perspective, my 89 200q was $32,500 MSRP when new.  No where close to
$50k.  Even the Urq's were only $35k new in their day.  And many people
started offloading their Audi's in the late 80's... shortly after the 60
Minutes debacle.
