RE: New car discounts

["Paul Wilson" <pauldwilson@ne.mediaone.net>]

Within 50 miles of my town(20 miles NW of Boston) there are 9 Audi dealers.
Within 100 miles there are 17.

Audis seem to be much more popular in New England than other parts of the
country so I'm surprised there aren't more dealers.
