It’s just a pity these big uber sport sedans from Germany depreciate like no one’s business because all those big German cars are super impressive (as they should be for the insane money they ask), the S8 would be my choice of the big three. There is another car in this kind of sphere of sports sedans the one could look at if your wallet was even thicker and that’s the Porsche Panamera.
Its a beautiful car, but it seriously needs a modernization, specifically the interior. Audi is my fave luxury brand, but it looks almost like an a6/s6 interior. Once you factor in depreciation, you can get a high spec a6 with slight use for like 60k lmao. The price is simply too insane for this vehicle Regardless, if money isnt a pressing factor, this car is stellar
I am an old geezer that could actually buy one and I say it's good just like it is. I don't need any "modernization". I like "tried and tested" over a few model years. By now it's like an aged red wine. Just right.
I love how when this generation of A8 came out people were like "The most technologically advanced car ever!!" And now people are like "Oh, that old clunker"
What a great review. Congrats
Another channel ( maybe carwow) ran acceleration tests with this and the rs6 they were identical.
For sure. This thing is a weapon!
It really boogies for such a large car
It has everything the Bentley Flying Spur has for half the price. Audi and Bentley are owned by VW
It would be nice to know what model year he is talking about. Is it a 24 or 25?
2024.
As soon as i saw the price i clicked off the video😂
That's not an American price dude
@@Vicinity-y1r im not american
40k and you can get a c7 rs6 with the same engine makes no sense 😭
So this or the Merc?
Great review!
Thanks!!
@@ProductReviewCars I’ve been following you and I see a marked improvement in your reviews. Great job!
I stopped watching when you had an issue opening the rear door
I have a 2022 A8L. Waiting on the EV.

They're a good bargain second hand, but someone has to buy it new in the first place.

@@mlo5083 could not agree more! also, note that reliability goes up with familiarity.
No Audi worth that kind money
It's not an American price
