The Audi Quattro was highly successful in rally competition across the globe, winning numerous trophies between 1980 and 1991. It would prove equally unrivaled in the consumer marketplace, yet it was only offered in North America between 1983 and 1986, and just 763 examples reached the United States and Canada through official channels during this time. The 2-door Audi Quattro, introduced in 1982 as a 1983 model, came with a five-speed manual gearbox and a turbocharged five-cylinder engine displacing 130.8 cubic-inches and offering 160 horsepower. They had full-time four-wheel drive and disc brakes at all four corners. They rode on 205/60HR15 tires and 6Jx15 light-alloy wheels. Standard equipment included a 23.8-gallon fuel tank, tool kit, dual remote heated mirrors, lighted visor mirror, cruise control, power steering, AM/FM stereo radio with cassette player, intermittent wipers, power windows, and front and rear spoilers.
