I know. Why would you get a 2WD Audi? There's no point unless it's a Fox
or a 100LS. The truly great Audis.

I see 200s about once a week. They're almost always quattros.

Oh, we're around. There's my '85 up in Chelmsford, Rob Houk's '83 in
Arlington, Dave Clark (of the Benz Den)'s '83 in Belmont, Carol
Martini's '85 in Danvers, a white '84 (for sale) in Concord (I forget
the owner's name), and a red (formerly Gobi Beige) '83 out on the Cape.
Plus I've seen two others driving around - a black one and a red one.
And I'm sure I'm forgeting one or two.

Percentage-wise, I'm surprised you haven't seen an ur-q, given their
relative high density out here. Hell, I'm down there in mine all the
time! And there's at least one ur-q that lives in Concord. Neil McHugh.
I think that's the guy in Concord with the white '84 for sale.

Then if you look outside the Boston area and look up toward NH...and
VT....
