Impressive cars

The Audi A8 has so many options! Really impressed with the comfort and power of this car. The all wheel drive is a major plus!!!

Best car I've owned!

I've had 3 previous BMW's, couple of Caddy's and driven others.. I must say, the value you get buying a used Audi A8 is amazing. Sticker on these baby's are over 100k which is great if you can afford that. I recommend buying something 3 years off lease or even longer as long as the miles are below 70k. This car has more toys than Toys R Us. Feels great to drive, plenty of room and a definite head turner. Love the pick up when you hit the gas and great car in the snow. I opted for the bigger engine, I like the kick!

Complete disaster

Purchased from Audi dealer...coolant leak, AC problems, cowl leak (due to dealer, not car), screen malfunction...at dealer for 2 of 7 months of ownership. Loved the car, but it was a maintenance nightmare

Just bought this car

Lots of bells and whistles. Very little noise heard from outside the cabin. The seats are awesome and the car is very spacious. Bought this car used with 65k miles and got it for a 3rd of the price of a new one. Very happy with this purchase.

This Car Has Everything You Could Imagine In It!

The exterior of this car is sharp and sexy. The interior is beautiful! I even have massaging seats! The drive is so smooth you feel like you are floating. The car has awesome pick up when you hit the gas. The back seat has so much room it's unbelievable. I've owned quite a few luxury car but this one beats them all!

There have been numerous repairs at mid-age

Wonderful to drive - excellent gas milage for large car 21 -28 - expensive to maintain - numerous repairs to console and navigation system - also had to replace the entire engine at less than 32K miles

My dream car

It's a great vehicle, it looks a drive like a spaceship. It hugs the curve when you turning the wheel. Very very nice car

Disappointing

I had beamers before the A8. I sold it after 6 months and returned to BMW. The A8 was boring to drive. No room in the trunk. Lots of rattling noises, tires noise of all surfaces, uncomfortable seats despite all the possible settings and massage feature. Gearbox not really seamless. Positives: excellent stereo, good mileage. That's it.
