Part 3:  The Commemorative Design 4000CS Sedan
==============================================
 
On April 30, 1986
I received an art print of the 1986 Commemorative Design 5000CS Sedan. 
I guess I was on
their mailing list, since we bought a new 1985 5000S the year before.
I've got the print
framed and it hung for many years in my office, now its at home.  If I
had test driven a
new Audi, I would have received 3 additional art prints of the other
cars in the
Commemorative series.  Here's the schedule of the installments that make
up the
brochure describing the 1986 Commemorative Design:
 
 Day 1  "A Celebration in Engineering and Innovation"
 Day 2  The Commemorative Design 5000CS Sedan        
 Day 3  The Commemorative Design 4000CS Sedan           <=Today's
Feature
 Day 4  The Commemorative Design 4000CS Quattro
 Day 5  The Commemorative Design Coupe GT
 
The Commemorative Design 4000CS Sedan
=====================================
To many people, the 1986 Audi 4000 Series sedan is the very model of a
modern European sports sedan.  And why not?  It is merely the latest in
a long, evolutionary line of Audis that clearly established the 
performance parameters for a whole class of automobiles.

So, like the 4000 sedans before it and the best imitators struggling to
keep up with it, this year's 4000 offers front-wheel drive, a responsive 
fuel-injected four-cyclinder engine, excellent road manners, superb 
ergonomics and refined body design.

Unlike other 1986 4000 Series sedans, the Commemorative Design 4000CS 
offers even more.  Amenities like a luxuriously upholstered and
contoured 
sport interior.  A power sunroof, AM/FM cassette radio and more.  Plus 
distinctive exterior highlights such as aero wheels and a choice of rich 
metallic finishes.

All are designed to add unlimited appeal and outstanding value to an 
automobile already blessed with the other virtues.

The 4000CS sedan's full complement of Commemorative Design Series
features include:

*Aerodynamic alloy wheels

*Alcantara suede-like upholstery with leather bolstering in Sierra
Beige,
 plus Sierra Beige leatherette door panel inserts

*AM/FM cassette radio, electronically tuned

*Choice of standard manual transmission or available automatic

*Front sport seats

*Instrument panel, carpeting and trim in Graphite

*Leather-wrapped steering wheel

*Plush, logo-embroidered, carpet floor mats

*Tilt/Slide power sunroof

The following Audi 4000S standard features are also included:
power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering, power vented disc/drum brakes,
air-conditioning, 
power windows, door locks and mirrors, cruise control, full
instrumentation, 36-month/50,000-mile limited warranty and six-year
limited warranty against
corrosion perforation.
