Loaded with innovation, the A8 is a thinking man's luxury sedan, more progressive, less traditional than a BMW or Mercedes.
The five-passenger Audi A8 comes in three variations: 4.2, 4.2 long wheelbase, and W12 long wheelbase. The 4.2L V8 produces 350 horsepower, while the twelve cylinder 6.0L W12 makes 450 horsepower. A full leather upgrade is available on A8 L models, while W12 models get the option of 20-inch wheels. Antilock brakes, electronic stability system, and a bevy of airbags are standard on the A8.
Changes for 2008 include a subtle front and rear end facelift, turn signals on the side mirrors, new rear taillights and various other miscellaneous changes inside and out.
