You are saying that you saw a two door Type 85 with a trunk, and it also had quattro and a turbo?

The only cars that come close to that description that I've ever seen or heard of, are front wheel drive non-
turbo's.  I believe they are "5+5's", 5 speed, 5 cylinders, I believe is what the name refers to.  They are
probably more correctly Type 81's too, or whatever was the same body but didn't include the later model
bumpers/headlights/grilles.

They are pretty cool looking, and it would be neat and different, imo, to have one of those fixed up.  Given
a choice of only one, I'd prolly take another Coupe GT tho'.  If I could have both, I would.
