Sale at Techtonics!!!!

Yeah, it was Canadian dollars.  I couldn't imagine a $27K Scirocco,
except when you convert.  Back in 1987 you got 1.31 Canadian per USD =
$23,389.  So, with some extras, you might get to $27K.

Speaking of which, when you were talking about the original price of a 
Scirocco 16v the other day, was that US or Canadian dollars?  The amount
was 
$27,000 iirc.
