[s-cars] look for contributors to new Audi websitewww.audiportal.com

[Emre Washburn]

Most of this back and forth bickering is a mute point. Any sites not
belonging to Volkswagen AG that use any of their copyrighted brand
names (Audi, quattro, VW, etc.) will eventually be found by VAG
lawyers, and have their domains killed. Take a look at such sites as
vwparts.com, audiquattroparts.com, 800allaudi.com, etc. Unless you
have permission from Volkswagen AG, your sites days are numbed.
