New European Car issue.....whole lotta Audi



I just got my EC mag, after Dave Head called me up teasing me since he ALWAYS
gets his 1-2 days before I do.

The magazine has some good Audi stuff in it.  The best part is a
review/buyer's guide for the Coupe Quattro that mentions the 20V site that
Eric Renneisen built.  They don't use Eric's name, they just say it was
compiled by an "unnamed author".  When I read it, I called Eric last night,
and he is now answering the phone "Hello, unnamed author here".  He says he is
glad they didn't use his name, since he doesn't want to take credit for all
the info that the whole 20V list helped him compile.  The Coupe Quattro
featured looks real sharp, and dare I say that I am a trend setter since the
CQ has clear turn signals like i had and Audisport stickers, like I had.

They have a quick article on a CGT with a 20V NA engine.  Looks great and it
even has the intake manifold painted red - another trend I think i started
with painting my CQ's manifold! :).

There is also a concept drawing of the new Audi GT1 race car.  I burst out
laughing when I saw the artist's conception, it is so bad, it looks like Roger
Rabbit's car.  You have to see it, and you have to wonder what 3rd graded drew
the car!

They also have an article on an Axis modified A4 turbo.  The article was
written by Troy McClure.....which is funny since that is a guy from the
Simpsons played by the deceased Phil Hartman.
