In '93 Audi fearlessly conducted a bold experiment: will us in the colonies
accept this elegant european hi-tech craze of the 90s - the carbon fibre
trim. Alas, it has failed miserably.
As an Audi salesman put it to me recently: The guy takes his mother-in-law
for a ride in his new S6 and she askes him: how come this $50000 car does
not even have the wooden trim on it?
What is he supposed to answer!?
Sh*t, what a dumb reason. If you can afford a $50K car you probably can
afford not to answer to anyone.
Oh well....
