A3 in the US, FS

[Fred Munro]

Now that is indeed a pity. The 204 HP VR6, a six-speed box, and 4-motion in
a Golf - now that would be a fun car to drive! As noted many times before,
the Europeans get all the neat cars - but then, they are building them :o)

The Golf isnt sold with 4motion in USA. The only car with 4wd on that
platform sold in US is the Audi TT
