Audi’s short-wheelbase Sport Quattro,
based on the first generation Audi Quattro, has become the stuff of
legend. Originally developed for Group B rallying, the Sport Quattro
also saw limited production in road-going trim.
Equipped with a 2.1-liter five cylinder turbocharged engine, production Sport Quattros produced some 302 horsepower. To save weight, the bodies were made of a carbon-kevlar blend, which guaranteed impressive performance and an equally impressive price; new, the cars sold for 203,850 German marks, or about $71,500

As for styling, expect short overhangs in front and rear, a flat roof
and a wide stance. For the record, we'd be fine with Audi using the
bodywork from its stunning 2010 quattro concept.
