Impossible Audi

Spotted in downtown Durham recently--1991 200 Avant Quattro with V8 front sheetmetal. Definitely a '91 as only the 20V 200 had the flared rear fender openings, and in the US market the 20V engine was 1991 only. Beautiful clean look though--great execution. I just don't know what to call it!

 

The factory did actually make one and only one Avant version of the V8, a special commision for the wife of Ferdinand Piech. That car is now in the Audi museum--but this one offers all the style with much less of a trip to see it.
