	On a humbler note, I always thought that the '85-'89 generation
	Accord coupe (which was a fairly blatant, but well-executed,
	rip-off of the 44 series Audis) was pretty nice looking. If Audi
	had done that .... well, it would probably wouldn't have been
	too good for the 80/90 cars. But it would've been a *huge* coupe,
	probably a tad longer than the MB 300CE's of the era.
