Don't think the early cars had the lower frame, though the '91 does seem
to have it. My (or is it Lisa's?) '88 5kcstq with sport seats definately
sits higher at the minimum seat setting than the '91 200 tq with sport
seats. Lisa likes it as she can sit higher and see better in the 5kq.
Suits me just fine to drive the 200 :-)
