[urq] Just read an Interesting comparo of the Uq vs. S2

[Ingo Rautenberg]

I'm sure many have likely seen this, but it's from the Novermber 1990 edition of the German Gute Fahrt (pages 12-15).  They comaperd the two models, which were both available at that time new.  The Urq priced out at DM 93.650 and the S2 at DM 68.500.  Since these prices include taxes (pretty sure), if one were to take 15% off and then convert for the $ rate at the time, this would have equated to approximately US$ 49,751 for the Urq and US$ 36,390 for the S2 -- over $13,000 difference!  Both cars had the 3B motor and were roughly equivalent in performance (theough the Urq beat out the S2 in almost all performance respects except ultimate top speed.  The general conclusion was the S2 was cushier and more refined but the Urq was more sporty and fun.  I know I like mine ;-)
