It seems a late hardtop Cabriolet with a few modifications such as Cup mirrors and USA/Japan rear lights. |

More than likely a real H plate. Is that 3rd letter a D? We can probably get the VIN. |

peto1995 didn't put any infos so I assume the plate check gave no results. |

JFD453 returns a specialized/truck/commercial plate. (no results from allianz except a redirect to the aforementioned plate types). JFB453 returns a Ford Focus. |

it was JFE-453, but without result from Allianz I added it as US spec according to small licence plate and red indicators blinking at unlocking of vehicle -- Last edit: 2024-02-29 21:56:35 |

I've actually never seen one of these in US spec, and it looks like they came very late - 1994-98. |

Was it sold as TDI also in the US? ![]() |

as far as i remember , only the 5-cylinders and the VR6 ( or called only V6 at Audi ? ) was found under the hood in NA |

The only engine for the US was the 2.8 V6. As per my first comment above, this is probably an EU model wearing the US rear lights. I can see now by that second shot that it hasn't got the late Final edition front bumper, so it can be an earlier model too. 1.9 TDI came in mid-1995 but since this is quite a modified Cabrio it could well be a more powerful V6 model with the 1.9 TDI badges as far as I'm concerned - the surprise effect for the other drivers at the green traffic light is guaranteed. |

A couple of days ago I saw a Tesla Model 3 with 3.0 TDI badges, I bet this would be a surprise effect too for many ![]() |
