VIXEN! Yes, I remember those at the 1986 MN Auto Show, along with Bertone
X1/9s, Maserati Quattroportes, and new Yugos ($3990!) The invisible hand
of the marketplace strikes again.

As for factory turbo Bimmers:
2002 Turbo (never exported officially to USA)
745i (ditto) 
524td

And that's all, folks. 
WRT the Turbo questions thread: Should I be starting the t,not q-list??
