OEM ext WG's?

What other cars came with stock external wastegates? I know the older audi 5000 came with them but what other cars came with external wastegates? Has anyone used any oem ext. wg's on there setups?

I also saw that some mercedes use ext WG's and they go for like $40 on ebay and there not as large as the audi 5000 wg's. Also uses a Tial style flange also.

Here's a pic I found online since I haven't gotten around to posting the real pic of it up yet but I also got the good section of the downpipe with the flange on it also.
