My Essay:


If I were in charge of Audi, I would only offer Quattro on all the cars under production. I would ensure all customers issues are catered to and taken care of to the best of my ability. I would have every dealership run the same, and let all managers know “Customers First”. I would continue advertising Audi through its achievements in racing and rallying. I’d add more standard horse power to most models; the A4 would be more comparable to the 3 series than it currently is. I’d get our name out there as much as possible, and try to make Audi a known name to all Americans. I would also shrink our car production as a whole; I feel there are a few un-needed cars currently being built. I would do away with certain classes to perfect the remaining cars performance and luxury, leaving our vehicles with fewer faults.

 

^^^^^ +1 about the whole production part

 

You're about 144 words short, Vato!

 

If I were in charge of Audi, I would establish a racing division and launch a new campaign into the WRC. Knowing that Quattro dominates all, it would be great for marketing and sales. The R8 is a good step in the right direction of competing with high end luxury sports cars but it’s only the first few steps on a ladder that doesn’t have a top.
I would offer all cars in 6 speed manual transmissions as an option so those who are inspired to drive an S8 will be able to feel the passion when they shift gears through a gated 6 speed manual transmission.
I would push the launch date of the B8 chassis out for a number of years, knowing that there was great success with the B5 because it ran so long (5 years). Owners of the older B5’s did not feel like they were driving around in an outdated car due to the fact that the current chassis was what they had.
Although this may hurt sales somewhat, with the release of the new lineup (R8, A5/S5, and the A7) the new models should help out in this matter. Also production of replacement parts will be cheaper since we can start making OEM replacement parts to fit more cars.

 

Sure, I'll give my biased thoughts on it.

You should reread your post about spelling & grammar. [:@]

 

That's a BIG PART of why I will NOT be submitting an essay for this competition. Well, that, plus I drive a D2.

 

yea but those posts didnt require me to think

 

so, post a couple more times, cut & paste it all together, and re-submit... DUH! Oh, yeah, the whole "no-thinking" thing, right? Sorry!

 

haha, AWD
