I LOVE MY A8 AUDI

I found out Audi does not retain its value, bought a new 2013 A6 prestige and traded up to the A8. Can look at it different ways i feel i lost a lot of value on my A6 , but i really gained a lot moving up to the A8. Bottom line is We will always have an Audi, this is the finest driving and quality built automobile out there. I always tell people you drive an Audi and you will end up getting one.

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.

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.
