Type 44's are officially classics, or at least scarce.

Maybe not by a strict year designation,  but it seems that just about
everywhere I stop with the '90 200TQA someone wants to strike up a
conversation about how they haven't seen one of those in a long time, or
wow, that's in great shape etc.  Might be a regional thing, as around
here type 44 Audi's were a dime a dozen "back in the day."  It kind of
struck me by surprise, it's not THAT old, but I guess attrition has taken
it's toll.  Thinking about it, in the last couple weeks or so I haven't
seen ONE other type 44 on the road.
