2003 Audi S8 quattro AWD 4dr Sedan (4.2L 8cyl 5A)

Review

Excellent handling with quattro weather is minimized. Fun to drive and very nimble for a large, very luxurious sedan. This car is a real head turner and no manufacturer does interiors like Audi.

Favorite Features

The quattro system and Audi interior. Safety features are also very impressive. Oh, then there is the neck jerking torque.

Suggested Improvements

Can't think of any, I am so satisfied with this car

Review

In 25,000 miles it's been in for service 9 different times and I've been without vehicle a total 22 days. Power steering rack, control module, interior trim, windshield washer pump, intermitent alarm codes etc. I still lose my power steering off and on regularly. I was told by Sales Manager that the A8 I traded in would pale in comparison to the quality of the S8. $80,000+ sticker! This is as close to a lemon as I've ever owned.

Favorite Features

Having it run and start.

Suggested Improvements

Take mine back and start over.

Review

The 4 wheel drive is great but it detracts from handling around curves. Little creature comforts could be improved upon (i.e heating steering wheel should be in S8, better navigation system and computer). Overall, I would probably not buy again.

Favorite Features

4 Wheel Drive for bad weather only.
