I don't know of any books specifically, but the Internet can be an amazing resource *cough* AudiForums *cough cough*.

Can we get more information on what is to be included in this report??

I don't think AF would be a credible source to cite, I mean it would be like citing Wikipedia.


I'd hit up google and search to see if there are any books out there. I know there is at least a History of Audi out there.

Yeah, you've got a good point.

I looked at B&N once, but didn't see anything - just haven't checked the Internet yet.

Amazon, maybe??

I don't think AF would be a credible source to cite, I mean it would be like citing Wikipedia.
so you're saying i'm not a reliable source?

what about just the a4 brochure from the dealer?
what about more general books, like german cars or import cars?
or history of audi?

and i think this would be a unique place to site, given the fact that there are many different opinions and experiences. it would be likeinterviewing someone.
it shows creativity.
but, if you need to siteat least 3 sources, i'd make this your 4th, just in case the teacher didn't think this was a valid source.

yeah the assignment is called the humanities project

i have to cite a whole bunch of different places so i could defiantly do it here
or if theres any of you guys who are willing to let me interview them on their expieriences with the car or whatnot

i have to make a 30 minute presentation for the class about something that were passionate about and something that is unique to the human race and something thats benefiting it

so first thing that came to mind was audi and my a4

anybody would really be helpful

and i check b and n and they didnt have anything

thanks guys!

actually, i think you should start a thread, askaspecific question (or maybe 2 or 3)and let anyone answer.
it would probably have to be an opinion type question.
you can print out the thread when you're done.

good luck.
may the audi force be with you.

That video would be a pretty good source for more general info. Maybe you could tie it in to the A4 angle since A4's are available with quattro, and that video is about the origins of quattro. Good luck!
