Oooooh, Mohamed, I sure hope you have your nomex underwear on . . .

Since I have TWO Audis, one being the unmentionable, disgusting, unworthy
of this list FWD model, and the other being the ONLY true, correct, shining
example of the marque, a quattro (Turbo quattro, BTW), does that mean I can
post only half the time because only half my cars are politically correct?

Seriously, they are ALL Audis - there's an awful lot of crossover from my
lowly FWD to my exalted TQ, and the lowly FWD runs a lot more often.

Show up at an Audi group get-together - you'll be astonished at the quality
and quantity of the contributions of us lowly FWD bottom-feeders who wear
bags over our heads so no one will recognize us - perhaps we should
emblazon letters on our foreheads "FWD!" - scarlet isn't my color, how
about pearl white?

You're certainly entitled to your opinion, but oh, man, are you going to
hear about this one!!!!!

Best Regards, (Remember you can only use half of that since I'm only HALF
acceptable!)
