However, several people have "created" their own. Read the story of Brandon Hull's ersatz S2 on www.20v.org for a very good and very clear explanation.

Did Audi ever import the coupe in a similar form?

Yes. 1990-1991 saw the coupe quattro in the US with a 5cylinder normally aspirated 20v engine. About 164 hp. Not bad, but no S-car. Also quite expensive at the time, that is part of why they are fairly rare.

one of my friends has one, he still has the original window sticker! $30K some dollars, expensive but not too fast.

Of course, compared to the '83 Turbo Quattro which sold for $40,000 here with only 160hp stock, the price looks more reasonable all of a sudden :-)

$40,000 wow i had no idea that it was that high. i was aiming for something in the 25-30 range when mine was new in 83

but only by people who converted. By yourself a 91 Coupe Q and do the conversion nick. You could have a sweet lil car. The conversion and labor probably run you about 30,000$. You would have a VERY fast little car then, and also very unique.

....at the shop the other day. Hmmm, engine swap..coming right up!

PS - i think i got my hesitation problem straightened out ; fattened my mix via the MAF adjustment screw and she runs smooth and steady :D
..maybe i'll pass emmisions this time around :P
