This car in the ebay looks goofy. Who has two different hub caps colors?

BTW stock w123 turbo 0-60 was about 15 seconds. With a manual take no more than a second off that. My modified 95X engine with a IC got it close to 11+ seconds- with a MYNA IP about 9 seconds. This car with the five speed maybe 16 seconds.
I was under the impression that the stock turbo 123 got 12seconds to 60...
the 124 wagon will do it in around 10, the 124 sedan will do it in around 8... the NA auto 617's will get there in around 20, the NA 616's will do it in around a year...
