The ad shows an early 80's UR Quattro Coupe kicking *** in a rough rally as it did on a regular basis back then. Then the commercial cuts to the new Quattro Coupe sliding around on what appears to be turf the consistancy of a baseball infield. Big whoop. The ad says "Then and Now" or some such baloney. I don't think the new coupe could handle the serious side of a swamp or desert. Where did Quattro go over the past 20 years?

Default That's too bad. If even a little rally technology bleeds over into their street cars....

they gotta be sturdy machines.
