How Many '97 A8's were produced?

[The Quattro King]

13,600 for a 91 20V 200????  That is insane.  Even with 85K miles (must be
perfect), I would not pay a cent of $10,000 for that car.  In 1994 we paid a
mere $5,000 more then you did for the 200 20V with less then 22K miles on
it.  You can buy them in this area (NW) for $7,000-$9,000 with less then
100K on them.
