I liked the Rocco, but an Audi Coupe...Looks nice. Good luck with it. There's another car we don't get to see here in the midwest. Clean car. Can't wait to see what you do with it!

I have always loved coupe Audis from 1980īs.
Reminds me of rallysport glory and victories...

Famous Finn, Hannu Mikkola, won World Rally Championship title
in 1983 with Audi Quattro. He actually developed that car together with Audi engineers

(in Finland, of course)

I bought this, remember? The big boat could have a "dingy"! J/K Can't wait to see what you do with the Audi. P.S. I don't drive the limo much so yes, I need to find a smaller 4 door still.
