    Like the above sais. Just to clear this up, the Audi A3 is based on the 
fourth generation golf platform (A4 generation VW), not the Audi "A4". 
Previous generations of VW's are A3's ('93-'97), A2's ('85-'92) and A1 before 
'85...rabbit and jetta. I've gotten quite a few off-list emails about the 
confusion on this topic. I can't wait untill VW comes out w/ the A6 
generation golf.....
