"Which means you should be able to humiliate and embarrass just about anything on the road, especially for those kids that don't know what they're racing" Is the perfect way to describe this. My 2009 A6 is the same beat, quiet and subtle enough even lowered with some performance mods- but it blows the doors off Type R's, M3's, and STIs.

Audi guy here. And a Wisconsin based one at that. Love the D2.5 S8. Great quality from this era. Exterior: 8.5 Interior: 7 Looks and feels good. No rattles but the lack of tech is obvious by modern standards. Performance: 6 It's a GT Luxo barge cruiser. Not a performance car by todays standards but still peppy enough. Mods: Eh. It's not like a B5S4 but sure, you can mod it up a bit if you want. Typically, people don't do as much of that with the NA V8 but let's be honest, most of us can't leave something completely stock. Please put a stock wheel back in and take off the windscreen decal. That looks silly. Especially in an Audi S8. Audi is, and traditionally has always been , understated class. One last minor CC, the RS5 Rotors look out of place on that era. Just my opinion.

Love the S8 model as a whole. Colors are great on this one. Personally I would take my 2013 any day though. Stock rated 520HP and pushing 667 with just a stage 1 APR tune. All kinds of upgrades from the older ones. I'm a techy though so newer cars will always appeal to me.

They’re cool, but lack character, and also weigh ~1000lbs++ more than a D2. The original S8 is also feasible to maintain yourself. The amount of fuckery to work on a D3 or D4 is unbelievable. Plus, 3 pedals and a manual gearbox are available. Not sure a D3 or D4 could ever be manual swapped.

I own a '98 A4 1.8T sedan (Amazing engine for a first car) and I just love the looks of it. The A8 and S8 look very similar up front but that rear end of the D2 is just that little bit nicer, I wish I could afford owning one haha. In my opinion the Audi B4, B5 and the D2 chassis are the best Audi's ever made, both in therms of engines (Not really reliability but more likely the mechanics) and looks, I love them!

Plus you still have that amazing grunt from the V8, the amazing handling for a car of it's size and the flawless quattro drive. And, mine is Black.

I have one too. 2001, double rare Fern Green, solar sunroof electric rear blind, electric seats in the back as well. Everything works except for the tv but that isn’t the cars fault. Every option on it except for the heated steering wheel which wasn’t available in the U.K. Mine is a 10/10. Edgars example has been fiddled with unfortunately. Get everything working and restore it back to original condition starting with the steering wheel. Then it’s value will sky rocket.

I'd say it's a 9/10 overall. I wish the wheels were painted bronze or satin black. The steering wheel looks okay but I'd go for a better looking wheel.

Beautiful car. I rate it 9.5 out of 10 only because I don't care for the steering wheel and it's not a d3. Lol Maybe he could review mine sometime. I have an 07 d3 s8 v10 and live less than a mile from fitment. I would like to do a few more mods first though.

One more thing about this, you need to mention, it has the Aluminium chasis, so no rust! I own A8 D2 with 4.2 220KW made in 95 and i absolutelly love the car. If you imagine, it is 27 years old, some of new cars cant offer comfort as this one can. It is unbelivable what they could develop in these times.

Well my dad loves Audis so I might be a little bias but 8 8 5 3 I know it can be a great car because it was an amazing back in the day. Keyword, back in the day. No one wants to work on the cars and the ones who do either will rob you for driving an Audi or hate themselves...my dad went through both stages and has a mk4 Jetta now. It's still a good car but don't expect it to lasting forever cuz the headaches it gives will kill you first. Also Alex, I think it would be funny if you reviewed the Avalon there, also because I have the first generation and they're almost identical and think they're pretty nice for a economy Lexus but give it a shot.

These engines are simple and reliable. Last good V8s from Audi. Run forever, as long as you take care of them with something outlandish like oil changes, proper warm driving, regular coolant changes, proper fuel and filters. Had many, none ever failed, up to 500.000km and always in good juice. Everyone reached their original 0-100 times even at 340.000km. Great cars
