Replying to: coloradoa8l (May 29, 2006 6:57 pm) The only reason I'm selling the W-12 is that I have a great friend of mine who totalled out his Phaeton V-8 and loves my W-12 powertrain so much that he's looked high and low for a Phaeton W-12 and came up with nothing. So the S8 comes along and the wife got tired of stooping her head under the roof of the CLS 55 and sold it and we aquired the S8. MY daughter and sister both drive S4 Cab's and my uncle is now in the process of trading his hard-as-bricks X5 4.4 in favor of the Q7. So Audi does get a lot of business from my side of the world. I couldn't imagine my garage without one now, and that is easy to come buy from the last year as the S65 AMG 760iL V-12, while nice, just didn't offer the full circle like the A8 does, with little to no compromise.

Replying to: coloradoa8l (May 30, 2006 8:30 pm) 24m lease 12k/year 06 A8L Premium, Sports package. MSRP $81,650 Got it down to $79,200 First/last down, $1260/month including CA tax. Since I haven't lived anywhere else besides SoCal, it is hard for me to understand what you guys are talking about. My local dealer had 7 or 8 A8L's and 3 or 4 A8's to choose from when I got mine. They were more than willing to knock off a few bucks to make the sale. And it wasn't a big Audi dealer either. I went with 24 months so I can get myself in S8 sooner. So far I couldn't be happier and can't wait to see what difference an extra 150 horses would make. I got my wife 750Li last October. There is no comparison. Audi's line should be the ultimate driving machine, not BWM's.

Replying to: kyfdx (Mar 18, 2006 7:55 am) I live in the southern California region. Recently, I see quite a bit A8s on a daily basis and dealers seem to be in short supply here. The other day had my first Q7 sighting as well. Definitely, eye catching as is the A8L and A8L W12 that always gets attention wherever I take him.

Replying to: reality2 (Jun 26, 2006 8:47 am) BTW: You too can have the B&O system installed: to the tune of 7k by courtesy of your local Audi dealer. I ordered my '06 with the system and let's just say this: Bose, harmon/kardon, and the rest of them can only dream of sounding this good. And this is why I purchased the home unit also. With the extra leather/upgrade, the rear fridge, wheel protection for the 20's, Audi extended warranty to 8/100k, the car stickered $141k. But much did I ablige to give that kind of dough in lieu of my previous S65 AMG and 760iL as this car is the "total" package. Nothing short, nothing extra, just right....

Somehow, there has been a heck of struggling among the mind, the heart and deep into my soul (?), so I went to the dealership today and put a deposit on a 4 months waiting period S8, the emotion won! I can’t say this move is the right thing, since the 07 A8 just came to my hands on Oct, 24th is truly a wonderful car, and I like every bit of it. What it is, is you stand on one hill, you see another one seems higher and more….of what? May be this is the last car, and no more after this one, and this time I really mean it! For those out there who own the new S8, may be able to enlighten me, especially the price paid and your experiences about this vehicle and why the three dealerships in my area I went to, would budge so little the MSRP.
