my 83 5kt was a metric car. got real good at dividing by 0.621 :-)
When i bought it from MA, the NH DMV wanted to look at it and put their
own sticker on the door jamb. The VIN was not US, it had XXX I think
after the WAU.
I was told it was imported by a VAG exec, but the dash was in English,
so I think it may have been Canadian? I dunno, it had a cat and OXS.
The dual rect headlights were not mounted very neatly and were wired
wrong, using female spades, no socket doohickey.
top speed 118 mph, I mean 190.... great car! like flying around in a
big comfy glove that did *exactly* what you wanted it to do. until the
wastegate started sticking. (pre net daze for me)
