1973 Audi - Full color 8" x 11" ad that compares the Audi with "8 cars. $4,260". It compares the rack and pinion steering with the Ferrari, the interior with a Mercedes-Benz 280SE, the same amount of trunk space as the Lincoln Continental Mark IV, the same type ignition system as the Porsche 911, both the Austin-Martin and the Audi have independent front suspension, it gets the same expert service as you would get with a Volkswagen, no surprise since they are both owned by the same company, it has the same headroom and legroom as the Rolls Royce Silver Shadow and, like the Cadillac ElDorado, they both have front wheel drive. But Audi had it first.
