Growing up I said one day I would own a BMW. Well I’m full grown and don’t own a BMW and I’m glad I don’t. This A8 is rare comparison to say BMW 7-Series or the MB S-Class. Exclusivity has its privileges and boy does this car turn heads. Fit and finish from the outside is great. An all aluminum frame with sheet metal. The only thing that I would improve on is the grill. The plastic seems cheesy in comparison. Once inside you have so much eye candy and buttons galore. From heated seats, steering wheel to programing the Sirius equipped radio. Engine power is at an abundance. 430hp with a 0-60 4.3 seconds. These are corvette numbers. Safety features can have this car driving itself. Only the U.S. regulations prohibit. But the adaptive cruise control, lane assist and optional infrared camera you can sit back and enjoy all the creature comforts of this 100k beast. As with any car of this magnitude I expect to pay hefty for repairs. But I have an extended warranty that will take me up to 105k miles. I don’t regret a day of owning this car and I hate when I have to park it. I’ve gotten 30 mph on a drive to Ga from NY and on the return home I was able to get 32mpg. All the while hitting speeds of up to 80mph cruising around 70. I tell anyone who is thinking of buying this car just do so and thank me later. Update 7/20 it’s been a little over two years of owning this car. I still smile when I drive it. Still take a glance over my shoulder after I park. Maintenance wise, there were 2 recalls dealing with the fuel lines that were fixed free of charge. I’ve done regular oil changes. The most expensive repair/ replacement were the brakes. I should have known better to go to the dealership. $2000 for front and rear brakes. This did not include changing the rotors that would probably jumped the cost to over 3g. Next time I’ll buy after market slotted and drilled and have a regular shop install them. I’d save about 1g. Other than that I still get compliments on how beautiful the car is 1/16/21 Update. With almost 72k on the clock and one replaced pirelli tire the smiles are still there. I am having a small water leak when it rains heavily for long periods of time. The Headliner isn't wet but I've look into forums and it's stated the sunroof drain holes could be blocked. Some weed wacker feed line I read should fix it. I'm also hearing creaking noises while going over bumps. It's freezing in NYC now. I read in the forums its the rubber bushings on the front control arms that are causing the issue. When I bring it in for service I'll have them look at it. Maybe it's covered under the extended warranty. 1/19/2023 Still loving the car at 86000 miles the turbos went kaput. A known issue that the factory installed oil strainer gets clogged and starves the turbo causing them to fail. The NHTSA has had several complaints and are investigating. Audi sent out a bulletin to all owners of the 4.0TT engine. Audi has extended the warranty to 10 years 90000 miles. $14,000 job. Audi America was great at covering the faulty part and replacing new turbochargers. My advice to anyone buying one of these cars second hand is to make sure this repair was done. Side note. If there were any engine mods Audi will not cover the repairs.

I purchased 2015 a8 turbo after 3 months of driving. Oil filter clog and turbo's no good. If your miles are over 120,000 audi will not fix your vehicle and they have a recall on that part! So, they know its bad. your best bet is to file a lawsuit. 6,000 to 11,000 to fix the problem. I will never purchase an audi again. Good luck!

I had every top end car over the years & just got the Audi A8L 4.0 Engine this car is a beast. Everything about this car is top end from the sound system to the seats & the ride. I test drove the M/B-S & the B/M/W 750iL & went with the Audi A8L. Only one problem the 20" tires make a lot of road noise .

Vehicle rode very well - Has unbelievable performance w/4.0L V-8 - Absolutely NO evidence of bear-tracking no matter hard I pushed it. Road noise via tires was a bit more than the S550 & the dash was nice but not as plush or expensive looking - Actually the whole car, exterior & exterior was not as 'expensive looking as a S550 but very clean & soft lines. Trunk room is awful small for a 'L' luxury car & roof is somewhat low for a vehicle in this class. In spite of a few cons as listed here, this is a very, very nice vehicle & I will likely purchase one if I can get the right deal. According to the dealer, repair can be an expensive & long ordeal due to the amount aluminum used in the body & frame.
