Could someone explain to me why Audi decided to make FWD's? Shouldn't they be all about Quattro??

Default Actually - Audi was one of the pioneers of FWD - don't remember

which brand of the "four" that comprise the 4 rings did it first though. Quattro was actually pretty far down the evolutionary scale.
