Great Car Bad Company

A great car which deserves a company to stand behind it. The car spent a total of two months in for service, with the last one being 45 dyas in a row. The car has computer and transmission problems which Audi will not stand behind. It was a bad experience. the transmission slips and progressively gets worse.

Traded my 3 year old S500 for this car and I love it - much prefer it to the Benz, and even to the BMW I had before that. Very sporty ride and handling, which I love, and I just love the way it looks. I know some have suggested it could use a little more power, but I find it at least comparable to the S500, if not better. Gas mileage also comparable to Benz. The MMI only took me a few minutes to figure out, much to my surprise.

As a previous BMW 745il owner I have a good idea for the cars differences. The A8l is a good car comparatively from a performance point of view to the BMW and a hands down winner from a looks , both in and out, point of view.

Terrible surprise

Initially loved the car, until I went for a car wash and the trunk lid opened by itself...everything got wet in the trunk. How this kind of thing can happen in a luxury car??? Then I went to the dealer and supposedly they changed the motor of the trunk lid. I also changed the tires to all season for the winter (got unfortunatedly the 19'' wheels with summer tires). The dealer messed up the tires and wheels (with quite a few scraches). Also they used the car for ~ 60 miles (probably the technician took for a ride). This is unacceptable from a luxury car dealership.
