And, I've driven the only one I know of in the 'states, a Tornado red 
5-speed 90, that lived in Montana. Don't know what ever became of that car, 
but it was quite interesting. I worked at Dick Walter Audi in Bozeman at the 
time, and it came in from the body shop for detailing.

BTW, it was the grey (sort of charcoal) interior, and it was the complete 
interior. Don't know if it was custom ordered or not, though. I can only 
imagine it was, but I never got a chance to talk to the customer about it. 
This was back in about '96 or '97.
