Used to love these cars, was the only Coupe with a carb, a big Solex one too! I remember back in their day, everyone used to call them "Audi quattro"!
These were the first Audi models I cut my teeth on, I owned 4 of them, 3 manuals, and 1 auto.
My favourite was the 1981 model, with the 4 square headlamps. I reckon with the carb, it was less refined than the injected models, but it emphasized the delightful 5-cylinder "warble", really loved those cars!
They also had a slight PAS pump whine after about 80,000 miles, which added to their charm. I'd buy another one, if I could find one, and fully restore her to her former glory.
What do you guys think of these cars?
