Exclamation 2 Dr. Sport Sedan or Coupe . . .

You're absolutely correct but overlooked one tiny Opel naming detail . . . the Kadett 2 Dr. Sport Sedan is indeed a Model 91, but the 2 Dr. Sport Coupe is a Model 92 in all its incarnations - L, LS and Rallye! . . . and I still have not seen or heard of anyone actually having either a Model 95 or 99, a 2 Dr. Sport Coupe L or LS.

. . . and BTW, the Model 91 Sport Sedan has a convex rear window while the Model 92 Sport Coupe in all its iterations has a concave rear window . . . that's the quickest and easiest way to distinguish them visually!
