Looks great.

But two things:

* The lights are horrible. Stick with the normal A8 lights.
* Should be the same exhaust as the RS4 and RS6.

Cool eventhough the S-line rims should be changed for more distinctive ones.

An RS8 with 550+ hp would be great but for the real world the S8 is more than enough.

Are Audi actually planning to make an RS8? - are there any rumours about it?

They probably won't since there is no way of making a huge car like the A8 very sporty and go fast around a track like the RS4. MB on the other hand don't have a problem with making AMG versions of their S-class since their cars aren't as track and racing inprised like M and RS cars.

Yeah, but there is still room for improvement with the S8 - the new S63 and S65 will certainly out-perform it.

Off course it can be faster in a straight line but it could never be a track performance and it would be against Audi's RS philosophy to produce an RS car which can't perform good on a track.
