The new A8 is absolutely stunning. Go for the A8 if you're still deciding...
My dad and I both went to see LS430 and the A8 last time...LS430 was 'okay', yet we thought that the A8 was incredible.

Japanese cars...just can't beat the European heritage...

I find it quite amusing all the "Lexus is unreliabel" etc claims...

Audi is the one that has become "bland" over the years.

In this case, I would choose the Lexus. For what the A8 represents and costs, it should be a lot more special appearing and performing than it does. The Lexus is a great around-town luxo car.

And before you all start with the "yanks don't know squat" comments - I have always been a strong VW/Audi fan - and not just because my grand-father wa the chairman of VW/Audi South Africa either...

Get the A8 it´s the best choice man, though the Lexus is a pretty cool car too. Can you get the 4.0 TDI in the States?? If you do, then get that one.
