[urq] I was spotted

[Brandon Rogers]

Well we love your car mike ;-)
It's a mixed bag these day - I seem to get comments/compliments/thumbs up
fairly often - but we are in serious quattro country here in CO - so maybe
there is higher awareness???  Plus I've been driving it a lot in this nice
cool weather.....

I've gotten the "nice Scirocco" - but more often I think people have seen
CGTs and can't tell the difference.  I can't tell you how many times I've
heard "my buddy had one" or "my friend had one high school" - I'm convinced
90% of those are CGTs.  But whatever. 

What else need to be done - or is it pretty much there (for now)?

Brandon

Some guy flagged me down on the road yesterday in Burlington MA, just to
comment on the car. He wasn't even an Audi guy, but he knew what the car
was.  He said his friend used to own a red one. Odd.  It is usually the
opposite.  People will say something like nice Sirocco.

I entered the car in an auto show in Orange MA, 2 weekends ago.  There were
400 cars entered. My class was titled "Imports".  There were only 7 in my
class.  I didn't place.

3rd - replica of a Porsche 550 Spyder  (was for sale and he spelled Porsche
wrong on the sign.) 2nd - VW microbus  (this was nice)
1st - '33 Austin   (neat, but not very clean)

Hardly anyone even looked at my car.  The 2 guys at the whole place that
knew what it was were willing to talk all day, but otherwise everyone just
looked past to the red "Porsch".
