Having owned many high performance German sports cars over 45 years, I wanted to upgrade to a comfortable luxury cruiser that offers high performance and many driver assistance features. The Audi S8 (SWB) is a perfect solution with 520hp, AWD /w sport diff, exceptional B&O sound and air suspension. My three passengers ride in extreme luxury and I can maintain an aggressive pace with minimal intrusion inside, thanks to thicker glass, AUDI Sport tuning of the sport suspension and complimentary 21” wheels & tires. Understated Fun car!!

I started looking for a used A8 L. I test drove both the 6 and 8 cylinder models. As expected, they drove like a dream. Then, by pure chance, I came across the S8. Wow! A real muscle car wrapped in luxury. 0-60 in 3.8 seconds? Check! Most comfortable interior in its class? Check!! Classic lines plus Audi touch? Check!!! The seats are first class, and massage, cooling and heating front seats will make a trip of any length a delight. Need to pass or merge on the highway? You have all the power you need plus more. I’m going to be really picky here. A long wheelbase would make this the absolute perfect luxury sport car.

If you want extreme luxury with a 3.5 second 0-60, then this is the car for you. Doesn't handle like a sports car but extremely comfortable. Long trips felt like going around the block.
