There was a 16V Audi 80 but it was never imported into the US.
Even in Europe this was quite a rare model.

For info and pics go to my web site: http://www.amb.org/ti/audi/

Compared to the VW 16V, the Audi version has different intake and
exhaust manifolds, amongst other things, to make things fit in the
longitudinal orientation.
