Have you even driven something with this power to weight ratio?

It's gotta be intense - the reality is - ppl love to talk numbers but most ppl can barely get the most of a car with 100 hp

That being said it's probably too much car for you :roll:
Yes I have. If you had bothered reading both sentences I wrote you would understand that I'm not saying that it's a weak car. When the last S8 hit the market it was top dog. This new S8 just isn't.


BTW I don't understand why you even start attacking me and my driving skills. That's just uncalled for. Feel free to comment my opinions but if I'm a good or bad driver has nothing to do with this.
:roll: I wasn't attacking you - I generalized. Good or bad driving has everything to do with ability - and most ppl - apparently you excluded - couldn't get 30% from a car such as this - thats a fact. 450hp is more than most can handle

I always liked the A8 styling the best over the other two marques.

But I don't like the horizontal slates on the front grill. It looks too much like a checker board.

Very nice.
The only thing is, they could not detune and leave 500 hp.
