Edmunds Inside Line - 2007 Audi S8 - 02-20-2007, 01:09 AM







Real-world performance in a sport sedan is not about how many g's you can pull on the freeway off-ramp; it's about how quickly you get from L.A. to New York, no matter the season. And that's what the Audi S8 delivers. More like a Bentley than a BMW, it's a confident, grown-up sport sedan that doesn't skimp on the fun, but doesn't tart itself up in the process.

There is no explanation needed as to why this car is one my favorites, it even makes my top 10 list - an esteemed Merc1 honor! Love this car!

It gets 0-100 in 5.5, not very important but still a little disappointing.
