I have it from a very reliable source that there were indeed a very limited number of 1986 GTI 16Vs in the USA. These 1986 GTI 16Vs were built as "test mules" used by VW engineers for all kinds of testing. Somewhere I believe I have information from my source that describes how to identify one of these 1986 GTI 16V test vehicles. In other parts of the world, there were also GTI 16Vs prior to 1987. Those models varied from country to country based on where that country's VWs were assembled.
