... I don't know that we need professional writers ... I think I can do a reasonable job of expressing my disappointment with Audi ... especially when you see the commercials for an *SUV* where they intimate that it is the spiritual successor of the quattro turbo coupe.  If I had an address of someone who had some chance they would actually read and consider a letter that I might send that would be sufficient for me.  

Over here in the USA the luxo-badged Nissan is called Infiniti.  Lately they have their commercials trying to do the same thing Audi is doing here with the Q7 ... showing that a couple lines of their SUV match the similar lines on sporty model ... OK, what I take away from those lines is that you're not going to have much visibility with that small of a greenhouse on something that big and that far away from the ground!  :-)  In the case of the Audi though, I'm always a sucker for watching the Rally cars back those 25 years ago ... it is truly a shame that Audi does not recognize what they are doing ...

Perhaps one sign that might get attention would be one that showed a picture of one of the classic A1 or A2 rally cars with text that reads "FOR PARTS" ...
