JAMES DELLOCONO

I had an '75 Audi Fox for two years while I was in college. It was my
second car (first was a '69 Chevelle SS - 396????). I absolutley loved that
car! It was fast, handled very well and was loaded with features that most
Americans were still dreaming of ( FWD, fuel injection, dual diagonal
braking circuits, rack and pinion steering, etc.) The only problem that I
ever had with the car, beside rust was the ground connection for the
electric fuel pump. I suppose that road salt had a lot to do with that.

I would love to hear from others who experienced the wonders of this
forgotten treasure!

IIRC
Yes it was also reported that it kicked a## when racing the only true
American sportscar at the time, the Chevy Corvette, on a curvey course NOT a
straightaway. 8^)
The Corvette had to be very heavily modified to be able to just beat the Fox
on that same course!
Not bad for a "grocery getter" huh? lol

While I was too young to drive my parents had a 76 Fox that my dad enjoyed
driving all the time. Unfortunately it met its demise when a drunk teenager
ran into it while it was parked in front of our house.

I was working on these cars when they where under warranty! I guess we are
both telling our age.
