     You guys must drive backwards a lot.  I didn't think Audis ever used 
     up their rear brakes.  (Oh.  Now that I recollect, I probably got new 
     pads every time the calipers seized and had to be replaced.  Never 
     mind.)

Sure ... buy a FWD Audi with rear drums.  I routinely got 80-90,000 miles on
a set of brake shoes and only had to replace them every other time I did the
front brakes.
