RE: bringing black/black leather audi to Nevada HELP!

Anyway you cut it, your car going to be a "Dutch oven"..............never
buy black, terrible color.........
You can tint your widows (a must) and you can park your car in the shade a
lot (not easy to find shade in Vegas) and you can run your AC in recrc. all
the time. Of course you can get a dash cover (looks tacky) and treat your
plastic interior regularly (to prevent cracking). You can also use one of
those inside shades when you park it in the sun.
Good luck, when I go to Vegas (ONLY for business!) I will watch for paint
peeling 90Q,
If you didn't get it (by now) it this post supposes to be "amusing"..to some
people anyway,
Avi

Subject:	bringing black/black leather audi to Nevada  HELP!

Hi folks,

	I am new to the list, and I need some advice.  I am getting
transferred from Boston to Nellis AFB in Las Vegas Nevada this summer and I
am worried about the heat and my car.  My 1995 90 Quattro is black with
black leather interior.  This strikes me as a potentially uncomfortable
combination.  I have purchased some mesh see-through sun shades for the back
windows, but I am not sure this will be enough.  Does anybody have a lighter
interior for this car?  I seem to remember them coming in at least charcoal
and creme cloth.  Any other suggestions from folks in hot climates?   Also,
I will be needing a timing belt in a year or so.  Does anybody know any good
Audi mechanics in the Las Vegas area?   Thanks.
