Let's see.  I live in suburban Philadelphia, specifically, Warminster (zip
18974).  Going to the Audi web site dealer locator and entering my zip code,
the locator found 5 Audi dealerships within 30 miles of my house.  It found
11dealers within 50 miles and 23 dealers within 75 miles.

Robert wrote:  "a half day's drive" - well, I could probably drive about 400
miles in a half day.  The Audi dealer locator found 95 dealers within 400
miles of Warminster.  

I thought, "I wonder what metropolitan area has the highest concentration of
Audi dealers".  A quick stop at the US Postal Service web site to get the
zip codes of some popular cities, and back to the dealer locator.  Here's
what I found:

Number of Audi dealers within 50 miles of the following cities:

NY - 23
L.A. - 12
Philadelphia - 9
San Fran - 8
Chicago - 7
Detroit - 4
Miami - 3
Dallas - 2

I wonder how many Audi dealerships are located in some overseas countries.
