Yes, it was definitely a 2 door, sedan, and it had a turbo for sure, that
was why I didn't jump on it as soon as I saw it, as at the time I wasn't to
sure of the reliability of turbo motors.  I am almost positive it was a
quattro, too.  It was white, sold to a dealer in NY (just before I made an
offer on it) and had the Euro style front lights (one filled with water.)
