The car I see in the FB ad is not a Sport Homologation. Looks like a regular UrQ to me. They didn't import as many in '85 as previous years so, for the US market a bit more rare but, certainly Seahawk's Mom could have had a Silver UrQ. Or, maybe it was the GT Coupe which looks very similar but without the obvious flaring and not AWD obviously.

My friend three houses down (GRHS) had an '84 or '85 UrQ. Can't recall the specific year now but, I know it wasn't an '83. He sold it and got his SC. Several of my Sat. coffee Mates are hard core Audi nuts and I've been around and driven several of these over the years.

VERY capable cars and like Porsche, the lumps are very much interchangeable.. 16V to 20V, etc.

Back to the OP, I think the car is overpriced and represents the rare overzealous BAT money dumper.
