Which S8 trim does Edmunds recommend?

The S8 comes in just one well-stocked trim level, but there are options to further season it to taste. We'd add the Executive package for its larger wheels, stickier summer tires, and advanced driver assist features along with the Bang & Olufsen surround-sound system. Those feeling more indulgent might consider the Comfort Plus package for its upgraded LED headlights, heated rear seats and extended leather treatment, while the Rear Seat Comfort package delivers a complete VIP experience: a rear center console (reducing capacity to four passengers), folding tables, heated armrests, and power-adjustable, heated, ventilated and massaging rear seats.
