I recently purchased the Audi A8 4.2 FSI as I own import export firm and we always get top executives and business owners visiting us from Europe and America. The Audi A8 is an imposing vehicle that impresses every one right away.
The 4.2L is a performing marvel. It's best to feel the performance of the engine yourself. It's simply classic. The interiors are fabulous with the great frills and added extras. The dash is perfection in art. The Bose audio system looks handsome. There are so many nuances that require the eyes to experience all these themselves.
The A8 sets the benchmark in luxury and performance. The Quattro system is amazing along with the aluminium substructure. The 4.2 litre engine generates 335 horsepower. Forget about manual at this level, it's the 6-speed tiptronic automatic transmission. Other serious competitors are the 7-series BMW and the Mercedes S-class, but frankly, the Audi A8 is miles further than these. Not convinced? Take a closer look and you'll believe!
