Best in Class
Audi's flagship sets a high mark in the luxury sedan category. I enjoy that it is less common than the other marks, but outperforms them in many aspects. Even after three years, the model remains a head-turner and a true joy to drive on my daily 20-mile commute. Performance of the A8 4.0L T is robust, yet the look is understated. My only concerns relate to the inability of local dealerships to keep up with the service capacity demands as more Audis are sold. Also, the unexpected service charge of more than $650 to align the adaptive cruise control should be covered in the pre-purchased Audi Care package. On the whole, I am quite satisfied with what is my fifth A8.

Everything you could want and more.
For the price, it is the best premium executive sedan you can buy. It is comfortable, quiet, handles great, come standard with AWD, the standard BOSE surround sound system is good, and it gets great gas mileage.The S class Mercedes is also a great car, but costs more, does not use the Quatro system in their AWD, does not have an all aluminum chassis (no rust), does not handle as well, and does not get as good gas mileage. I have put 50000 trouble free miles on this car. Replaced tires and brakes.

Ultimate commuter
Put 80 k miles on this. Traded bc CPO warranty was running out, and I had itch for new car. This car had excellent fuel economy. High mileage warrior - 20k miles/yr. Exterior still looks great. Had excellent road manners. Fast at high speed and super stable at higher speeds. All wheel drive. Tires wore out quickly- May have been my driving style. Interior is 5 stars. Massaging seats nice touch, but just ok. No heated steering wheel in mine?? Bang and Olufsen was impressive, but Lexus Mark Levinsen sounds better in wife’s SUV. Overall cockpit was super. Own another Audi- costs are high out of warranty, so upgraded to a superb Cayenne GTS CPO- with an amazing warranty. Dieselgate was disappointing, but made up for lost $$ in the trade. Worth the buy.

Surprising Luxury and Performance
I have owned Audi A8 sedans previously but switched to Mercedes S Class a few years ago - all of these high tech sedans can be problematic due to the complexity of their electronic systems - so be prepared to buy only from a dealer with 5 star service - recently, I was intrigued by the 2014 A8L TDI diesel sedan's specs and options so I acquired one - it does everything right, especially fuel mileage which surpasses my expectations - the A8L is "sized right" as compared to the lumbering S550 - the diesel performance is outstanding - the electronic gizmos are entertaining but most are not necessary for daily use - cons - lots of road noise from stiff tires, mediocre stereo, electronic failures
