The Sport quattro should be legal to import and be registered in the
States. There are 9 or so running about the country, and one less than
a 10 minute drive from me in my buddies fathers garage. Vroom! I think
it's rarity in the States is attributed to it's high cost and low
production numbers (164 sold to customers, IIRC).
