The S2 was originally a Coupe Q with a 20v turbo motor in it.  Also had a
different front end(one piece hood/grille).  The later S2's are based on
the 4-door 90Q.  The RS2 is a 90Q Avant (wagon) whichwas tweeked by
Porsche (computer/turbo/brakes/wheels/suspension). Again, none of them in
the good ol' US of A....
