Audi S8 Plus (D4) specs

I have to agree with some of the older comments on here. 11.8 is more realistic for a car like this than 11.2 for 0-200 kph.

It's similar in size to an S63 or an Alpina B7, but in terms of overall performance it's barely shy of the E63 and Alpina B5. It's not as track-focused as the E63 S-Modell or the M5 though.

Could you add the torque: 553lb-ft @ 2500rpm

hell yeah m140i just spins all its power away. why has fastest laps got no data on a m140i?

lol a 1 seris interior is the most dated ever. golf r has more stable rear axle than a 140i.

also the vw groups golf r is lots better than the over weight number seris of the bmw range. a golf r is better priced than a bmw . a golf r has no extra cost for back seats folding down. but in a 1 seris you have to pay..i feel bmws are quite hideous actually. and i find the quite sillyness of the the bmw bonnet to be quite square. and silly

W12

I hate when company's giver there cars the same power as the next, And i think every Series should have there own engine, Im sure its cost efficient, But it just ticks me off, Like when every damn start up company uses a damned Chevrolet engine-_-

IMO, I think this car need a 6.0L V12, Love the S8, One of my fav 4 door cars, But i never thought a V8 fit it properly.

"It's not a sports car, but it does perform like one." - Henry Ford

Gniddik tsuj! Lol

...Dont think anybody mentioning anything bout this being a sportscar...

@biscione:
Nobody said that this is a sports car and it doesn't want to be a sports car.

So much people still believe a car in excess of 2 ton weight with a powerful engine can be considered as a real sports car. Maybe in Russia?
Definitely the opposite of my idea of what a sports car must be.
Then as a status-symbol, it is really anonymous if compared to Jaguar, Maserati, Mercedes, Bentley...

I dont see it, When your average person here thinks about a luxurious car, Its always Mercedes THEN Bmw, Audi would barely even come up, Its more a communion car rather then outright luxury, Same with Volkswagen, Ive never herd Prestigious and w come together..

But i guess it depends where you are as each would make a different impact.

The VW Passat W8 and the Phaeton haven't been sold here in the USA for a very long time. I guess VW doesn't want to be a luxury brand in America. Maybe VW is the Buick of Europe?? Lol ...And then Audi is to Cadillac just about everywhere you go!

Audi, Mercedes, BMW, the big German trio.

Of course they are status cars. The quintessential exec cars.

Btw, in Europe VW badge is considered to be prestigious too.

Ive never thought of Audis as much of a status car, Even the 8 Series, Maybe more today then a few years back, But the only car i thought was a true status car was the R8.

Its great the cars are comfy and have speed, But i feel its a bit pointless.

Audi knows its market.

The rest of the world prefer ride comfort, craftmanship, aesthetics, etc.

Someone sitting in the back of an A8 is not going to want to be thrashed around. And if that owner is wanting to drive something fast himself, he'd have a supercar.

Fast and heavy fridge lol

Its a status symbol car. Russians will love it!

I don't understand what is the purpose of a such fast and heavy fridge. It's not 0-60 time or the max speed to make a car a sports car... but some manufacturers still ignore this!

Exactly. The RS6/7 are already rivals with the E63 and E63 estate.

A8 vs 7 series vs S class is about car size. People don't buy cars solely based on price. Else a Rolls Royce is a rival to the Lamborghini aventador

I'm sure an S8 and a S400 will be similar prices? The S8 is all about speed and motor. The S class pwns the Audi in luxury, equipment and ride.

.....lol Oops! I mean RS6 plus = E63S competitor, and RS7 plus = CLS63S.
