so similar yet so different, the SQ is actually as shortened audi 90, with coupe doors and 90 frames, you'd be lucky to get a sport quattro for 20k now i reckon

sport quattro -

coupe quattro -

you can clearly see the difference between the two, the windscreen is more upright on the sport for a start

Mates Dad has a red Sport Quattro thats been fully restored and now sits in his air conditioned garage under a proper Audi storage cover 99% of the time. Its totally original and like new but thats because it doesn't get used

it proves that they are not the same car, the green one is clearly different from the red one, but similar in many ways
