    Huba Huba! The old S8's are soooo cheap for what they are, I get the feeling that this one wil hold its value a little more.[:^(]

    doesnt this thing have a sport mode like the bm's?!

    i don't get the point in it, you buy that type of car for a reason, you want full power, hugging seats and proper throttle responce permanentley!

    but nonetheless, awesome........

    I doubt it tbh, Executive cars like that never do..... Give it 6 or 7 years and that will be dirt cheap tbh.....

    Rather like the BMW 7 series.

    You have to be clinically insane to buy one of those new.

    Its a peach of an engine, had a Gallardo a few weeks back in work, had great torque from the off and pulled really well to the redline was a bit slower revving than I expected but it certainly sounded good, to be honest if I was a Gallardo owner I would be a bit annoyed having the same engine fitted in a big saloon kind of takes away some of the "specialness" of the engine but VAG are well known for this type of engine sharing :( dont know how its going to cope in the S8 which despite its aluminium construction is still a heavy car, cant help but feel that the twin turbo W12 from the Continental would have been a better bet although Audi have gone on record saying that they want to ditch forced induction on the S / RS models and go for high revving N/A engine instead, personally Id rather have a more torque based motor it just seems to suit large salons better
