The interior door handles are meant to be lightly pulled and the lock opens door electronically. It’s meant to be effortless. Just slight pull and door is available to push open. Simple. Everyone in my A8 pullls them so hard that it hits the emergency mechanical release.

I remember some years ago, maybe it was Discovery Chanel, maybe not, Tiff test driving the McLaren F1. The car was orange, and he used headphones to be able to hear himself. For a young boy, living in Romania back in the days seeing Tiff thundering down with that beast of a car... unbelievable. I'm glad you're doing fine Tiff, keep up the good work, you make us happy and this is all that counts. Best regards from Transylvania!
@manenwan3 жыл бұрын
If a c8 rs6 overtaken that c63s it wouldn't have looked as cool because the s8 looks like an a8 with new exhausts while the rs6 is dramatically different from the regular model. Eventhough the rs6 looks so good, I'd still want audi to go back to this understated styling

It’s a beast. Imagine when the plus version is released. That will have the full blown Urus engine I assume. And will fly around the track like usain bolt.

I'm a motorcycle fanatic with just an average runabout hatchback, but were I in the market for a luxurious saloon, this would be the car I'd want. I feel that not nearly enough is made of its aluminium construction. Anyone who pays £100,000 for a different vehicle made largely from steel, regardless of how well it's rustproofed and painted, is a person who, perhaps by wealth or by nature is less pedantic than me. I was impressed by the track footage that indicated a lack of understeer that has plagued many other Audis. Does anyone know if an effort was made to place that big V8 further rearwards in the engine bay than has been the case with other Audi offerings ?
