I gave it a 4 and the reason for that is that Audi could have squezeed out more out of that engine. Other than that the car is very complete. Carbonfibre panels, B&S sounds system, sporty handling, top notch interior quality and a fantastic looking exterior. I has taken me a few weeks in order for me to appretiate this car and suprisingly it is right now my favorite car in the luxury car segment. Great car

I have no problem with it at all and I like the fact that it is bold, it gives the car a unique character.

Re: Grade the new AUDI S8 - 01-12-2006, 11:41 AM

To me this is typical Audi. They are not going out of their way to impress us, but they are not going to retain the regular A8 to bore us. I think this just about cuts it for Audi and their S division.

MB and BMW only really have one superior sports division which is AMG and M, but Audi has one more--RS. So with that in mind, the RS versions--which I highly doubt there will be one for this segment-- usually has way more aggressiveness than any other version under it.

With all of that said, this S8 is really okay and just simply adds more sportiness to the A8 and obviously different performance. Nevertheless if there was an RS offered I would pay the extra money to acquire one. The same goes for the S4 and the RS4.

Is it just me or is the S8 looks sportier than the S6 ?
