[INTERACTION] Audi on Apr 1st We have just gotten a new e-mail from Will Star to Ian about going to a car dealership at 7 tonight(New York time) on Park Ave.... it would be wise to stick to an Audi dealership because of the info on Ian's site... also there is a new journal on Nisha's site... nothing really important there. That's all...

I don't see anything about a car dealership. It looks like they simply plan to go to a party at 7:00 and getting drunk. The plan to "motorvate" (drive?) there.

Maybe somebody in NY can have a look?
I think this is the place:
Name: Audi Park Avenue
Address: 250 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10003
Phone #: (212) 515-8282
Website:
E-Mail: parkavenue@zumbachmtrs.com
I guess I'll send an email to them, at least to know if they are throwing a party tonight... which they probably aren't, but this could still be a hint for some kind of physical clue, or maybe even a real-life encounter, who knows. This game just started and is already playing a lot with the vborder between in-game and OOG...

Car Dealership Party I'm fairly sure that Ian & Gunter were working together, and that someone needs to go to the Audi drinks (I'm in UK so not possible!).
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I think they linked with the Bluetooth chips in the Audi's in the warehouse (something went wrong & Gunter was captured), and are planning to track one of them after the NY AutoShow.
1. Ian has a phone message from Gunter(?) about safehouses on 1 Mar.
2. Ian and Gunter have checked out Bluetooth schematics (Schematics, Gunter phone PDA & Bluetooth sch.)
3. Audi are bluetooth enabled, bluetooth has security flaws, previously "trusted" chip can be read at will, Ian also checked out Emden & Shipping - Misc stuff, Links, Recent unfiled.
4. Ian has made presspass for NY car show (Personal stuff), and that is where the Audi's are being shipped (Gunter Bluetooth car shipping info).
5. Gunter – broke-in, had key but struggled to get first door unlocked, cars unlocked, opened each car door, then went to bonnet, talked on phone, then started the next car he went into, then captured. – Movies, Emden Warehouse 15 Mar.
6. Ian wants to track a car – 1 Apr IRC chat w. CyberGosse - Program needs fixing to track a car (CG time=9am, DJH time=1.48 am), email through Tokyo server.

I haven't gone through everything yet but that would be bad, since Gunter is on Nisha's Suspect list of bad guys. I'm hoping this is just Ian trying to prove to Nisha that he can go after the bad guys even though he's not a former secret agent.

Okay, I called the number on the photo (btw, why can't I see the inline images?). It's a recording from Audi America asking for information on the stolen car. They also say that they will update their website on Tuesday, April 5th with more information: www.audiusa.com/a3

Dealership damage Can any of those local to the dealership check police reports for that precinct to see if anything was reported by the dealership?

If not, at least we have one of our sponsors

Aside on Audi:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Hm! Audi did some nice promotional work last year - I was keeping an eye on the David Bowie "mash up" thing here in which the grand prize was a TT: http://www.neverfollow.com - and it looks like maybe they've got some plans for this year too?
