In 25,000 miles it's been in for service 9 different times and I've been without vehicle a total 22 days. Power steering rack, control module, interior trim, windshield washer pump, intermitent alarm codes etc. I still lose my power steering off and on regularly. I was told by Sales Manager that the A8 I traded in would pale in comparison to the quality of the S8. $80,000+ sticker! This is as close to a lemon as I've ever owned.

Excellent handling with quattro weather is minimized. Fun to drive and very nimble for a large, very luxurious sedan. This car is a real head turner and no manufacturer does interiors like Audi.

Audi S8 is a FUN car. Kind-of uncomfortable - but a real FUN car!

The 4 wheel drive is great but it detracts from handling around curves. Little creature comforts could be improved upon (i.e heating steering wheel should be in S8, better navigation system and computer). Overall, I would probably not buy again.
