good review! Something different, an honest opinion of the car and it doesnt feel like its being forced. getting better each time! keep up the good work
This is your best effort yet, JF. It helps when someone actually knows the brand. From one Audi lover to another, great job on relaying your knowledge on the car. I'd take this car over the S class or 7 series any day.
i think that this is a amazing looking car! i thought the same with the previous model and i like how they made the grill bigger it makes it look better.
Awesome review. I just like the fact that Audi is ahead of the pack with its technology. There are too many luxury car makers that are behind the times.
Why not in HD video? And the car seems sufficiently protensive so that there is no need for longer versions/wheelbases to look complete and aesthetic. Though long-wheelbase is sine qua non.
honestly if i was looking to buy a car for day to day, with performance not being a hug issue. use i think JF is who i'd pay attention to. but for being entertained and looking at how a car performs and makes you feel none better than the almight JC.
can you review the 911. My question is - is the 911 a good everyday car? if not what GT car is the best everyday driver ? try to be subjective we all know that you guys love 911 s
I predict that this car holds value better tan the other german rivals. It has an irresistible sense of understatement that makes it somehow better to be seen driving than an S-class.
@CSIS25 Way too many Buttons? It has more buttons than a 7 series or a S-Class, yes, but I see that as a positive thing since you'll always have to go deep into BMW's/Mercedes' Nav system to change something you can do with the press of a button in the A8. So I personally like the fact that it has more buttons than the others. As long as they don't put in as many buttons as in a Panamera, which looks like an airplane inside, it's OK.
@JDisturbed it's not necessarily biased, like i know it's not exactly the same thing but say someone didn't listen to Disturbed, you do though so if you were asked by a friend if their old music was any good after saying their new music (which is awesome) sucks, since you know what the old sound is like and you like it you could say it's extremely badass, and then I know not alot of people would go this far into detail but say then he asked you what should they have done to make their new...
Good review, it's always interesting to know what each single button and feature do - something you don't always get in other reviews. As for the car. Don't like the headlights at all, the rest looks good but not outstanding as other latest Audis. Can't imagine this style in S8 configuration, looks too boring and dull for S badge.
everything in this video is also on the s class mercedes and the price is very similar, what i really wanted to hear in this video is why would i want this new "leader" over an s class?
it looks like a b8 a4 with a bigger mouthm however this is not a complaint more like an observation, for sure this is the best audi better than the R8?
music better, if you get where I'm going with this so far, you know that you can tell him based on Disturbs older music what they should have done to make it better.
u can make it stiff if u really wanna have fun with it, and make it soft if u just wanna go in the city...the fuck they get this dude from "Hey guys i know what well do, drive a brilliant car through puddles and...yea drive it through lots of puddles"
@mondeost2202008 "interior is a winner but thats just it"? what the..? the interior is just about the most important thing in a full size luxury sedan like this.
Let me break it down for some of you who don't have the access to get the truth about the Auto industry right about now...Let's take this review for example on the 2011 Audi A8. "Before we get to drive this car there are a lot of things you need know"...(He got one thing right.) Audi and many other auto companies have gone from top quality build to budget building all within the past 2 to 3 years now. While others have gone the opposite ( Ford, Hyundai,Susuki,Kia)...
really great job today guys. NIce work JF!! Loved the FLDetour!
awesome detailed review, it must be your love for audi's, I could even sense the passion there. Great job
u make really good car reviews:)
good review! Something different, an honest opinion of the car and it doesnt feel like its being forced. getting better each time! keep up the good work
THAT GRILLE IS HUGE!!!!! the front kind of makes it look like a concept going down the road
This is your best effort yet, JF. It helps when someone actually knows the brand. From one Audi lover to another, great job on relaying your knowledge on the car. I'd take this car over the S class or 7 series any day.
The grille on that A88 makes it look like it's 10 years ahead of our time.
GREAT REVIEW JF
Awesome Review JF.
Great Review JF ;)
Great review. I am loving this car.
Good choice of music for this review
i think that this is a amazing looking car! i thought the same with the previous model and i like how they made the grill bigger it makes it look better.
awesome review, really. goob job
Great job JF
That grill is bangin!!
Great VIdeo!! Fabuloso!
Good Review, JF.
If i want entertainment and dreams i watch the top gear review, is i want to buy a car, i'll look for the FLD reviews. Good one.
the fact that its a wifi hotspot just blew my mind, I was deciding between this and a 750Li and now I'm gonna take this beast. I want it haha
Awesome review. I just like the fact that Audi is ahead of the pack with its technology. There are too many luxury car makers that are behind the times.
that grill.. wow! i love it actually
car sounds freaking awesome
impressive on the fuel economy improvements with switching to the 8 speed auto, but damn, 8 gears...when is it not shifting¿
is that verrazano bridge in the backdrop?
I soooo want one of these. As an ultimate family car
interior simply amazing
What does MMI stand for? Multimedia Interface?
How does it compare to the 2008 audi a8?
Did E-40 design that Grill?
How does it ghost ride?
what will the new S8 be like?
They need to bring the A8 TDI over here!
Why not in HD video? And the car seems sufficiently protensive so that there is no need for longer versions/wheelbases to look complete and aesthetic. Though long-wheelbase is sine qua non.
you forgot to go into detail about the b&w sound system =/ It looks so sweet when the speakers come out
honestly if i was looking to buy a car for day to day, with performance not being a hug issue. use i think JF is who i'd pay attention to. but for being entertained and looking at how a car performs and makes you feel none better than the almight JC.
Where is the HD?
"You can make it stiff if you really want to have fun with it."
That's definitely what she said 😁
S8?
love it.
wait so no monthly subcription to service for wifi?!?!
Does it cook for you?
Amazing technology.
I think the chrome bars on the grille should be vertical. It would look better.
what does he mean that it is a wifi hotspot? can you use youtube and internet stuff? z
A true beast. I want.
Good job guys you really demonstrated this car's ability to drive through puddles
Didn´t know that the pre-facelift version had LED lights
are the audi grills getting bigger and bigger or is it just me?
Ohh snap!! thats right under the GWB! NICE!! I like the 7 BMW. A8 its a very nice car though.
@maverick223 awesome?
Don't cars need front bumpers?
can you review the 911. My question is - is the 911 a good everyday car? if not what GT car is the best everyday driver ? try to be subjective we all know that you guys love 911 s

beautiful car. Wish i had it. Insurance is probably 2 damn high. I want an A4 though!!
@JDisturbed ya but i hope u got my point I know that no one would really ask ur opinion and then broadcast it i was just using that as an example
just saw the new A8 in the street. The front is SO SEXY, especially at night with the LED lights!!!
the baq looks so like a new vw jetta
Read some comments & I have to say I liked this review, & I'm not kidding
Wifi hotspot would make this a great car for vacations
Not good as clarkson or tiff? they are different people...your a good reviewer. I enjoyed the watch.
@JDisturbed it's not necessarily biased, like i know it's not exactly the same thing but say someone didn't listen to Disturbed, you do though so if you were asked by a friend if their old music was any good after saying their new music (which is awesome) sucks, since you know what the old sound is like and you like it you could say it's extremely badass, and then I know not alot of people would go this far into detail but say then he asked you what should they have done to make their new...
my god how pimp is that grill.
The only thing that isn't nice about this car is the licence plate that we have to put on the awesome front grille. :P

It looks way better than the 7. Just need a front plate to split the grill. European plate works much better than the American one in this aspect.
If anything it definitely looks better than the competition from Mercedes and BMW.
MMI touchpad is much better than that jog wheel on the prior version. Google Earth for Nav, impressive. W12 model available?
that was a rolling stop 6:30
Big Audi a4 ^^
nice
it looks like a b8 a4 with a bigger mouthm however this is not a complaint more like an observation, for sure this is the best audi better than the R8?
the rear looks just like the A4 but a bit stretched in width
music better, if you get where I'm going with this so far, you know that you can tell him based on Disturbs older music what they should have done to make it better.
Jesus H. Murphy, that thing has one big grille
@Snipedout209 There's a difference between someone asking my opinion, and broadcasting it to many.
audis have the best looking engine bays!
you can make it stiff if you really want to have fun with it
At least JF is very honest!
So what? You are not fast and not funny but instead you are yourself, thats great review i like it.
@purpleflith ha ha ha yeah except for when it drives by you in your honda civic and your like damn.
The Audi 8 appears to have traveled from the near future and got stuck in the present. I drool from the left side of my mouth when I look at it.
LOL 'You can make it stiff, if you wanna have some fun'
@bottomlayer True true...
that's a big ass grill!!!
@auggles thats what she said!
u can make it stiff if u really wanna have fun with it, and make it soft if u just wanna go in the city...the fuck they get this dude from
"Hey guys i know what well do, drive a brilliant car through puddles and...yea drive it through lots of puddles"
don't forget about the XJ...
oh boy.....wat will the s8 gonna be like.....
Love the car but am not really liking the google feature.
@mondeost2202008 "interior is a winner but thats just it"? what the..? the interior is just about the most important thing in a full size luxury sedan like this.
@MrNothingButAir yep i pay $160 for my A6
i dont think its very good looking and i like audis, but when your inside, audi cabins are just amazing.
Can it do my laundry too??
Let me break it down for some of you who don't have the access to get the truth about the Auto industry right about now...Let's take this review for example on the 2011 Audi A8.

@tunawookie only if there were people on the sidewalk
you can make it stiff when you want to have fun with it... thats what she said
It's all about the V8 TDI.
top gear best tv show eva!
"I want to go to Hoboken" I would NOT take a 2011 A8 to Hoboken...
wait what? it will brake for you? what if i want to personally take someone out?
