Euro spec 5000?



Earlier tonight I saw what I think was a European-spec 5000 parked in the 
Ballard district of Seattle.
 
It was white, with Washington state plates, the angular body shell that I 
think hit U.S. streets in the late '70s, European headlights. The trunk lid 
badges said "Audi 200" on the left, something like "5ST," "5TS," or "5T" on 
the right. I say "something like" only because my memory is hazy, not because 
the badge was unclear at the time.
 
If the owner is a QLister, how did you get the car into the country, and how do 
you pass smog inspection?
