RE: Quattro, ur-quattro and TQC?
<snip>
There are several variants. The best known is the true 'Sport' - just under
200 originally made it to customers, although the precise numbers vary
depending on exactly how and where you draw the line. A number of ur-quattros
have been shortened into 'pseudo-Sports' - some of these lost AWD in the
process.
No AWD? HAH! Whattahjoke! It's not even quattro......
The Sport is an unrefined, hairy machine. I stood in a field last weekend with
13 or 14 of the beasts (and 60+ ur-quattros) talking to their owners and
drivers. It's best described as a well-built kit car. It's also quite
uncomfortable to drive long distances because it pitches fore and aft a lot,

Ditto. From what I've heard the ur-q is definitely the better street-machine.
