	Careful...

	>Resale vale is also far better on q Vs non-q.

	This is currently true.  It would appear from current research
(none is factory derived, just word of mouth stuff) however, the turbo 5
speed non-q MAY be more rare than a Ur-Q (I assume the Ur-q was sent to
the US under homologation rules? 500yr minimum - please correct me if
wrong).  I think the 5kcstQ is more desirable resale.  If you find
someone who wants a clean 5kcst 5speed, however, the car may one day
command a higher price than a similar year/condition Q.  I've never seen
another one, know of only 3 (including mine) on the list, and my
mechanic says he's only seen 4 his whole life.

	I'm slowly slipping on the Nomex...
