The only problem here is that the Coupe quattro wasnt made in 1983, the
first Cqs came out in 1985, all with the facelifted front end.
It could be either
a) an Ur-q that got some damages and sides replaced with regular Coupe
panels or
b) a Coupe that got the floorpan from an Ur-q or 4kq.
I've also seen a 4kq that wasnt a q. It had the diff lock panel and rear
window, and while the Lebanese dude that was trying to sell it was very
very convinced that it indeed was a quattro, it didnt have the 4wd
running gear.
