Review
I bought this car in August of 04 and
it had 117,000 miles. Near perfect
condition inside and out. I've done
quite a bit of research online and I've
never seen a one with a bad interior
yet. The leather NEVER cracks. The
exterior is just about the same. I have
yet to see a rusty one. It's geared on
the high end so you won't get the fast
0-60 you'd hope for, but I had it at
125 MPH (smooth as silk)and it coulda
did more but I didn't want to see a
deer. On the other
hand it is a 15 year old car and there
is some nuisance electrical problems,
ie. radio, back window, AC.

Great car! Comfort, luxury &
reliability for less than $5,000. We
use it in the Rocky mountains. The
AWD & ABS make it perfect for winter
mountain driving. It's like a
luxurious SUV without the high
rollover potential!

I was actually looking for another
200tq, but decided to get the V8 after
I had the pleasure of driving one. I
can't express enough how great a car
the V8 is. I live in NH and travel to
NYC about 5-6 times a year. I have
driven it at 125 mph (no traffic, good
radar det.) and it is flawless. 15
years old, 160k miles. Added sat
radio, and 16" wheels. Audi was not
selling many cars here in the early
90's, so great cars like this went by
basically unnoticed.

I bought this car for $4,000. Quite a
bargain considering it cost nearly
$50,000 14 years ago. What a steal.
I was looking for an inexpensive
package of luxury and all wheel
drive. And this car is all of that
and then some. It has every possible
option (excluding navigation) that
today's luxury cars come equipped
with. And the V8 sticks to the road
in any weather condition. Still no
rust and only minor mechanical
repairs. Great value!

The 1990 Audi V8 clearly demonstrates
what quality design, build, and
materials can do for a car. The
attention to detail is prevalent
through out. Though this car is 13
years old (review written in '03) it
demonstrates virtually no wear inside
or out. The materials used in
manufacture are cleary top notch.
This car does not squeak, rattle, or
succomb to wind noise. For its size,
it has strong acceleration and good
braking. Interior comfort is well
above average. The '90 V8 befits its
name as a flagship.

This car has every option possible,
except cupholders. It's excellent in
the snow, rain, dry...the AWD system
mated with a nice V8 provides lots of
grip and acceleration an all sorts of
weather. I feel incredibly safe driving
it. And it weighs 2 tons so I'm pretty
safe in an accident! I highly recommend
this car to anyone! Was $50,000 new!

This car has been a true delight to
own. It now has 157,000 miles on it
and I can't seem to bring myself to
part with it. I have driven many other
cars, which I thought might be the
replacement, but have yet to find one
that has the equivalent build quality,
performance, and sheer fun factor to
drive. I suppose it will be with me
for another 157k, which is fine by me!
By the way, at 157k miles most people
still believe it is, at most, a two to
three year old car and nobody believes
the miles! The V8 is an extremely well
built vehicle.

You have all the features you would
expect from a vehicle of this class -
and some features that are still not
being used on brand new domestic cars.
Under the hood is an energetic V8 3.6L
engine with 4OHC, 32 valves.
Classy, anonymous exteriour - domestics
feel the need to put "V6", "ABS", "24-
valves" on their outsides to compesate
for a faulty product. Audi does not.
Exteriour hides blazing perfomrance.
People will still look. You will blow
them away too.
