glossy blue Audi

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2003.05.08

So I saw this Audi S4 the other day. It's a European 'performance auto', with plenty of horsepower, and a price tag that's probably in excess of $40k. The owner of this particular vehicle had seen fit to paint it a glossy blue (like one of those Testor paints you get to paint model cars as a kid). He's also added front and rear air damns, and skirts on the sides. It looked like one of those 80's-era mustangs. I guess in a pinch, you can re-create a disasterous Ford by using just about anything that's lying around. Like an Audi!
