	this is the flyer that will be on my car at monterey
	this weekend.  andrew at 2bennett said it was worth
	$12k, but i am asking less OBO.

	for clarification, my company diddn't actually IPO,
	but i did get a stack of cash from a private stock
	option transaction.  
	
	why sell the urw?  i have never owned a new car,
	and can only have one car because of where i live.
	after driving the a4 1.8t, then driving a chipped 
	one with a k04... well it fits my lifestyle.  it's
	quiet, smooth.  i can fit my musical equipment in
	the back, carry 5 people *and* gear for skiing, 
	carry enough gear for a long road trip with camping,
	even fold down the seats and sleep in the back
	(i already measured for this).  new cars have
	warranties, extended warranties, etc.

	i had been considering getting a cq and all that,
	but the appeal of a new car is just too strong.
	it's awd, it's a wagon, it's a "sportscar" - everything
	i would want in a car.

	any problems? 
	- windows slow but functional
	- one of the headlights has a hole from a rock impact
	- front right side was hit and repaired some years ago,
	  along with an entire coat of paint which was well
	  done.  the PO actually rear-ended someone. the car
	  appears perfect, the repair was good imo.  this was
	  enough, however, to scare away a potential buyer who
	  was going to trade the car for his, which had a $14.5k
	  asking price.
	- minor crack in one taillight
	- alarm isn't that great, but it works fine
	- heater and diff panel lights out
	- a/c removed for weight savings (have all parts)

	anyway i wanted to run the ad by y'all and get opinons
	and such.  it's a shame to sell it, but i still have
	*plenty* of stock options to sell in the future, then
	i can get a house of my own with a 3-4 car garage...
	you know the rest of THAT dream... when it happens i'll
	find myself another urq and start over!  whee!
