@@djeslic5377 Hit that 8-10 year window, I grabbed a 2013 with the 4.0TT for 18k a couple years ago and it's just so good to be in. Even cheaper now since used prices have come back to normal.
As a previous owner of several Audis these aren't as bad as Mercedes or BMW which is worst far as long term ownership. But these are flagship cars that cost regardless or price you pay when you buy it new or used. Used with a warranty is a nice bargain price wise, its just when its time to sell you are going to cry, that depreciation is serious.
of course it's COE's fault. In Singapore, people are encouraged to walk or to take public transportation because Singapore is tiny but it is a rich country. So to prevent traffic jams there, it is only a solution to control or limit car ownership. But I agree with that
The first flash of the indicators looks to be the whole of the section on the boot (trunk, sorry English) lid. That part alone looks bigger than Tesla indicators (Turn signals, sorry English again), Hopefully you'll get them as they are.
@@lamontwaters510 There are a couple of " gotchas" with buying an extended warranty on a car like this. If its not factory the warranty will not cover many of the parts on cars these complicated. For instance some of them expressly will not cover any components of the laser cruise control. On this car the sensors can be $4000 ( each side). If you buy a CPO car depending on the time you bought it...if early in its life you still have the depreciation to deal with...if later you probably only have a couple of years of available warranty and then the repairs are on you Bottom line..there is no free lunch
Putting mechanical and electrical complexity into something so vital and necessary as air vents isn't great. There are parts of the world where you can die in a car without air conditioning but Audi is projecting it's not concerned about the health and safety of owners which is out of step with so much else on the car. This is from a car company known for reliability problems - VW. The hubris in this design is honestly creepy.
I often see people, ridicule, technology, and while it’s true. The simpler things are the less likely things will break however, if all engineers thought that way, we would not push the envelope in the progression of mankind. There’s always a chance something can go wrong, but then again who needs a $100,000 car? That’s a choice. If someone wants something simple, you can buy a strip down Honda accord or civic or something of that sort.
These cars have about 50 different modules and are plagued with problems from brand new. Even the dealership can't repair these vehicles. Problems with water intrusion and leaks, transmission problems, you're lucky if this car makes it to 100K miles.
shhh the young ones must suffer with VAGina products like we did. else they will never learn. dont warn them, let them find out while riding in the tow truck
but since mentioned dealers.. VAGina dealers are the rudest most incompetent and disinterested people ever. from sales to service you will be met with nothing but disdain. and audi/vw never has a random part you need in stock, anywhere. not even in germany.
sure. and 2 years down all parts are discontinued. meanwhile 40 years later you can get most parts for any MB. and if its a designated classic model, it has forever support. @@Wulf44445
Audi is not good. ⭕Poor quality in material and manufacturing, especially in non-visible places. ⭕Cheap electronics made in China. ⭕Unreliable software. ⭕Terrible value for money. Conclusion: Driving Audi is not fun but trouble! 👎😠
Thanks for the reupload! I really wanted to see it, so this was helpful
I can’t wait to buy this car in 14 years
🤣🤣🤣 Me too... Maybe not 14 though more like 4 or 5.

My 2012 is becoming a 2019 soon!
For anyone wondering why this video was taken down, read the description.

i like how they opt for luxury over sporty
Well that was worth 24mins of my life. Great Job and a true deep dive about this vehicle. Thanks
Yeah come 2030 I’ll be ready to purchase it
In Singapore, this car (3 liters version) costs 400k US dollars. Lol.

you have 900999900 6
Can’t find any online for sale with features like this, is this the only model with the rear infotainment system ?
It’s called the executive edition
thanks fr the re-upload
My pleasure
Shame it never went viral, especially the scene with demonstrating the audio buttons
Worth $50,000 in 2024
I've seen some for sale that are close to $30K.
Cars like that just tend to do that. They devalue like crazy.
Got my 2021 for $51,000 with 14K miles 😮😮😮😮
What ever happened to this video?
I really like those rims. They weren’t offered on U.S. A8s.
GOOD JOB ON THE REUPLOAD. SUBBED
Why he dropped the video ?
Well, Audi took down this exact video...
Thank you!
myyyyyyy corvete is worth 200k and its one of a kind. oh boy...
Which corvette costs that much? Who scammed you my guy LOL
Me gusta Audi para mi familia
Did you all know that we're all gonna die?
Noooooo waaaaaay🤪
Die in a Kia or die in a Audi A8 hmmmn????
Theirs no way it's worth it those things depreciate about 10,000+ a year. I would pick one up in a few years but not brand new.
@Lamont Waters
After the warranty is up, I would budget $5000-7000 per year owning one of these for repairs and maintenance.
@@turnne I would just get one with a extended warranty. Under a extended warranty it's somewhat of a bargain. But like I said new it makes no sense.

You can tell that Doug was being really negative on audi after they took down this video.
It's not worth 100k anymore. It's worth 40k now. How ironic.
okay? like all the luxury cars lol
@@v____l exactly, it has a lot of mechanical issues. Not reliable at all.
okay, I would buy it now. I lf I have a money
@@jeancarlorabino6454 Don't buy the used. Go new or nothing. If you can afford the repairs then buy used.
It's funny how I'm looking at one and it's $36k

This is car much more looks like from 2009 rather than 2019. same old styling. good for uncles maybe
no audi is worth its price.

None

Elaborate, if you will 🤔

are you joking? stealing video from Doug Demuro. You are reported
Kinda, but not exactly stolen. It was taken down by Audi and reuploaded here. Have a look at the description.

Utter nonsense. I have a 2019 Audi A8 and it is absolutely magnificent. I have has Mercedes and BMW in the past and this is far superior.

@@raymondancill1501 I have a d4 A8 right now. I want to get a D5 so so badly. What engine do you have and do you think its enough power?
@@raymondancill1501 same, I couldn’t agree more. Was less impressed with my bmws and Mercedes’ then my previous generation a8.
