I was driving my '82 Euro urq in Portland, Maine (yeah, the end of the trolley) yesterday and somebody in a Nissan or Toyota Camry waves and gives me a "thumbs up." Next stoplight we were next to each other. He said "nice car--does it have the turbo..." No questions like: is that a Scirocco" or "what is it?" The guy knew (more or less). First time--ever--that my near mint '82 Euro urq (with "quattro" vanity plate and blacked out tail lights) had ever been "recognized" by somebody not already in another urq.... I verified the turbo when the light turned green.... ;-)
Actually made the challenges and hassles of ownership worthwhile.

PS. Interesting comment by Paul Giletta--that no one wants to sell their urq. They haven't shown up in the Quattro Quarterly of late, or in Autoweek, or even on the urq list; occasionally on eBay--a few nice ones and a few that, well, are just parts cars." Very interesting.....
