Not quite.  There were something like 70 1994 Audi V8Q's sold in the US
officially.  I saw a breakdown somewhere (maybe on this very list?) and
77 V8Q's were sold that year, but 7 of those were leftover/undelivered
1993's.  By this time V8Q's were a special order, money up front
proposition.  Offhand I can recall 3 V8Q listers over the years lucky
enough to have 1994's.  There was 1, 1995 V8Q sold in the US.  Three or
four years ago the 1995 Audi V8Q made the insurance carriers "hottest"
most stolen car list.  Whoever makes the list for the insurance companies
must use percentage of total vehicles to come up with that list, because
that's the only way it made any sense, the One 1995 V8Q in the country
got stolen....that's a 100% theft rate.
