Thanks- now I start another round of regret... for trading in my 88
5ksq for my A4 turboq.

The car was unshakeable. On off camber turns, the car would get light,
4 wheel drift with power on. I never managed to spin it (I'd spun
everything until that car). I could get the car to oversteer in some
severe autoxing action.

Lugging quattro with just 130hp didn't win drag races, but once it was
hummin' I'd take it over alot of newer sport sedans. 

My only complaint was the suspension was a little soft, a little more
roll, dive and squat than I like.
