Recaro's were standard as well as KONI shocks?
Check out this link and get the details of what this Kurrus place did, buy the brochure there everywhere onlne! Kind of a poorboys RUF that never made it out of the eighties custom import car boom?

Look at the big brain on you. I'd say you nailed it. Way to go, pulling out a link to the obscure brochure to back it up.
If I'd seen that car in a driveway, I would have been thinking I was in Bizarro world.
