I could have bought a '87 5kcst 5 speed in April '97.  Pretty thing she
was-lago blue with Borbet Type C wheels and pretty low mileage.  Engine was
very clean and no discernable dents or dings on the body.  I think the lot
wanted $6995 for it and I passed cause I wanted a Q.  Got my '87 5kcstq
couple months later and paid $4400 and I was just as happy.  But that fwd
5kcst sure was pretty.
