Hi Doug: > >Igor sez: >>I am thinking about buying an S4 sometime next spring, probably of a '93 >>vintage almost solely because of the beautiful carbon fibre trim. > >Igor, all of the S4's I've seen have the elm(?)/wood trim. Was there many >that had the carbon fibre? I've seen photos in EC of tuner specials with >the carbon fibre, but have yet to see one here. > >Inquiring minds, etc. In '93 Audi fearlessly conducted a bold experiment: will us in the colonies accept this elegant european hi-tech craze of the 90s - the carbon fibre trim. Alas, it has failed miserably. As an Audi salesman put it to me recently: The guy takes his mother-in-law for a ride in his new S6 and she askes him: how come this $50000 car does not even have the wooden trim on it? What is he supposed to answer!? Sh*t, what a dumb reason. If you can afford a $50K car you probably can afford not to answer to anyone. Oh well....
