Anyone care to trade?

I have a 1995 Audi 90 fwd (BLACK) that I have been doing a lot of work on even though I want a quattro. Would anyone be up for trade? I'd like a quattro but the only thing I have of value is my car lol. If interested I can post pics up when I get my car down to iowa.
It is RUST FREE

Keep your car, it's faster than the quattro, lighter, and gets better gas mileage. You'll be disappointed in the swap.

Except that the best reason for owning an Audi is the quattro system, only Subaru has a system thats even close. Having driven both the quattro and Subarus symmetrical allwheel drive system, easily the best invention for a driver who loves to drive. No other manufacturers come even close on an Awd. Ive driven my 90q down unplowed roads with almost 2 feet of snow and it just pushes through. Find a quattro you will love it, the 12v engine was never designed to be a speed denom and the 400 odd lbs that the quattro adds is well worth it when it dumps snow and toyotas and hondas are getting stuck like jap scrap

And the 12v engine is the biggest lump that Audi ever created. Don't get me wrong, I like these cars, but don't kid yourself into thinking that they're all that great.
