Ur-quattro article

[Todd Young <tyoung@wamnet.com>]

Just had to let everyone know. I was at my parents this last weekend and
decided to see if I had any Audi articles in my stash of magazines in
their basement. The very first box I opened, I came across a July 1981
issue of Motor Trend with an article about the Audi Coupe, they
basically gushed over it, saying it was one of the most beautiful cars
Audi has produced to date. There was a sidebar at the end of the article
about the soon-to-be-introduce Quattro.

The very next magazine was the June 1982 issue of Motor Trend with a
line on the cover, "New Audi Quattro", I was almost drooling. Opened the
magazine up and there it was, a great 6 page write up of the Audi
Quattro. Interesting that one of the sidebars talks about what I believe
has come to be known as the "spider bite".

The best part is that both magazines are in pristine shape, I only
brought the June '82 magazine back with me to Minneapolis, but if any
body would like a photocopy of the article, send me a fax number and
I'll do my best to get a copy to you, the pictures might not turn out
too great, but the type should.
