Reminds me of the call I got from my local Audi dealer after I brought 
my new-to-me 2000 A6 in for an outstanding recall issue a couple months 
ago.  A couple days afterwards, I get a call from the sales department 
telling me that my out of warranty Audi can be expensive to maintain and 
asking if I would like to come in and look at a newer one....  Thanks 
for encouraging the high quality perception of your brand.  I find it 
nice that the sales team is essentially is telling me that Audi can't 
build a quality product that will stand up to time and miles.
