This car is everything i imagined it would be. Great features, great ride. The only thing it is missing is the infrared camera our other A8 has but I am still ecstatic with my purchase.May 03, 2024

Perhaps its understated styling is responsible for it being less popular than other flagship luxury car brands like the S Class and 7 Series, but it is an absolute joy to drive. The cockpit is beautiful, the instruments and tech features are intuitive, the build quality is precise, and little expense has been spared on the quality of materials. Despite its size, it feels nimble. No, it wont turn heads, but not everybody wants to. My two cents? It outshines a comparable BMW in almost every respect. If youre considering the L version with the executive package, it is at least equal to the S Class, except for, arguably, comfort, and even that is a close call. Best of all, because its competitors are more in demand, you can pick up an Audi A8 well below market value, even in these supply-chain-challenging times. Lastly, take advantage of that brutal luxary car depreciation. The original MSRP on my 2017 A8 L .30 was $92k. I paid $29k, which was almost $3k below market. There are other similar deals out there if youre a smart shopper.Mar 10, 2022
