In fact in Aug/sept 1983 when the SC has been left and the new 3.2 pointing his nose, it was just 10 years after the mythic RS 2.7. In Italy ten nostalgic of this wonderful car decided with the agent In Milano (I presume) to issue a new RS in the spirit they decided to call it ST (just one letter difference from R to S and from S to T) They took the basic .2 which was as light as the SC, and much more performant that the official figures (for Europe 231 HP) in fact it was more probably around 240hpp, they put down the engine and polished everything they can do, plus a little modification in the Motronic first generation (which was welded as that time), and finaly the exhaust banana was lighted of his content. The result was between 250/255hp . Finally they add the ducktail and a 3.2 logo on the boot lead as in the past, the wheels (telephone dial) were painted in red or blue and the stripes also red or blue were sticked on the sides. All these ten cars were "Grand Prix Weiss" and a commemorative plate was fixed on the glove box.
I hope these explainations will be of interrest for you. I post also a picture of the Beast which is Number 9/10 and has a mileage of only 108.000kms after 28 years, not bad at all.
Best regards.
