The Avus quattro is now on display at Audi's museum mobile in Ingolstadt, Germany. ==External links== * (Audi Corporate website ) * (museum mobile, Ingolstadt ) * (Audi Avus Quattro Info Page By 21st Century ) * (Audi Avus quattro page on Audi Corporate Website ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Audi Avus quattro」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
