Re: Audis in movies

[Matt Bauer <mtbauer@uswest.net>]

There was a ski movie made by Warren Miller where he drives a red 500/200 up
a ski hill. No, its not the controversial commercial.  It was back in the
days when Audi sponsored Warren's movies. Too bad I don't remeber the name of
the movie. I wonder if bilsteins or boges handle better in the bumps?
