This is a real luxury car with nice and tight handling. It's pretty amazing. Would buy it again.

I just picked up a very well cared for 2023 Q8 prestige. Have put about 500 miles on it so far. I bought it because after many car sit ins to figure out if my left leg was going to fit in seat, have leg room to stretch out, and not numb out my leg. This car fit that bill. Nothing else really did that. Porsche Cayenne was similar and found out is essentially same interior. Driver area is comfortable though not really spacious, I’m a big guy. Everything is within reach. Storage space for miscellaneous things is non existent and it has two tiny cupholders in center console. So keeping it small that way keeps everything in reach. Getting in is hard for me, getting out is okay. Working on how to do without scraping my head. Going in head first sort of works. I’m big and not as flexible as I once was. So this is an ongoing thing to learn. The things like the wireless charging pad in console is difficult to maneuver once inside and thankfully I don’t use it with wireless CarPlay and most of my trips are short. For a long trip I have a USB cable to charge. I use it to store handiwipes to wipe my hands as needed. Not much room in there. Glovebox is big but with a side less frame on left it lets stuff fall to floor. While it has the 6 cylinder engine and can be super quick, I’m older and just want to get where I’m going comfortably. To get the extension seat you have to get the prestige package. So that adds a lot. Don’t misunderstand me, it is a finely tuned racy type suv that absorbs roll in turns and windy roads, it does that well. It handles like a sports car really, can’t complain about that at all. And the drivers position and seat is outstanding. I sat in the back seat with the front seat all the way back, and it was doable. My issue is with cost and hype. Original sticker price was $93k. Not even 2 years later I bought it for $62k. Big depreciation. If I had bought new and lost that much I’d be pretty upset. Of course I could not afford new so moot point. The idea that everyone is of a certain weight and height ratio is outdated. I have cancer and all the meds I must take to live are the kind that add weight. The seat and legroom is perfect. Getting in is hard. A slight increase in roofline would allow easy entry for more. It seems to me that these cars are more or less the same for many years at a time and not often have major design changes. The world and people living in it are changing and as such it might be time to reconsider the design to incorporate some changes. Nice car, yes! Looks sharp, yes! Would benefit from a higher roofline at driver entry, and some reconsideration of storage space vs just console size. Wish there was a more affordable option that would let you get a top end seat without having to go high package items, that would be nice. Maintenance is expensive and while I don’t know about costs for things. At 14,000 miles brakes had been done and at 19,000 four new tires were put on. That’s a lot of expensive service in a short time. But I drive conservatively so hopefully that won’t happen as soon. The American car companies have some nice cars but provide short and uncomfortable seats. Thin or materials that cut into your leg instead of supporting it. Seems that big consoles are the thing now and that is at the expense of bigger more substantial seats. So it kind of forces you to a German car but with the caveats above. It’s no secret we weigh more now than ever, yet cheap junky seats are commonplace in American cars, even expensive sturdy brand SUV’s. Plus no allowance to move driver seat back past some predetermined amount someone decided. Audi lets you to back enough to stretch out your leg, which is nice! And the seat supports all of me and my legs (both of them). So kudos to Audi for this. Time will tell how things go. Had some errors this morning when I started it up, with presence and a bunch of related things. Disappointing but went away on a restart after a 30 minute trip. Seems internet shows this is not all that uncommon. Sometimes I think hype overcomes reality. Nice car and seems to handle and drive well. I drive on roads not raceways. I drive conservatively so as not to risk an accident. I bought it cause it was available and once inside I can drive comfortably. I don’t care about looks and would say I see so many Audis I would think I’m in Germany sometimes, I’m sure they are everywhere in Germany. The years long same design makes them all look alike and other than facade changes over the years, they really all blend together.

This is my third new Audi since 2019; first I had the S4 Sedan and loved it, but it was too low to the ground as I was coming from a truck. So I raded it in for an SQ5 sport back and unfortunately that wasn’t quite big enough for me so ended up with this third Audi; the Q8 and it’s a regular one not even an “S” model and it’s absolutely perfect. With the Q8 you don’t need the “S” - it’s plenty fast enough and it handles beautifully and it’s just absolutely perfect. I will continue with the Q8 for quite some time now updating it every two or three years for the newer model. As an FYI, I did rent through TURO an SQ8 on a recent West Coast visit and unfortunately as the SQ8 only comes with sports seats; my back ached after 30 minutes in the car so it’s just not an option for me. But again the regular Q8 has plenty of power and handles beautifully.
