I was rather miffed about them calling it something like 
last-quattro-sport-coupe-produced....or whatever the actual terminology was.

It makes me wonder what other Q-owners with merely two doors consider their 
cars?

  Very interesting story. However, this quote seems a tad ironic:
  
  "We would never be able to replace this car and its value to the
brand is inestimable" said Jeremy Hicks Director of Audi UK.
  
  After all, we are talking about a car the manufacturer dumped the
spares inventory for and offers zero support for. Yeah, "inestimable"
is about right. The way things are going the already scare Ur-Quattro
will become extinct and only the "inestimable" examples will be all
the remain as the ones the rest of us own become cannibalized to keep
the museum pieces alive.
  
  What, me bitter? Perhaps...
