a) Please trim.  It's bad enough having 4KB of non-quattro (and even non-Audi)
   going to everyone on the list.  It's worse when it's just attached to a 
   (6KB, now) repost.

b) A Ferrari 328GTB is no match for an ur-quattro, even.  Seriously 
   disappointing car.  No room in the back, and no luggage space _either_.

The quattro aim is to provide stunning performance within a package that's also 
useful as a car.  Engines that last 250K+ are another aspect of the same deal.  
Looking at (especially European) sports cars - I often think the more they 
cost, the less useful they are as transport.
