2016 Audi S8 plus

[FiestaST]

I'm an S-Class man in this segment but ever since the days of Ronin I've had a soft spot for the S8.

The new updated S8 plus is hot stuff!

"Audi is making a strong statement with the new Audi S8 plus. With a power output of 445 kW (605 hp) and a top speed of up to 305 km/h (189.5 mph), the new Audi S8 plus delivers even more enhanced driving performance. The new top model is reinforcing the brand's position in the segment of premium class sedans"

"Audi engineers have further advanced the development of the 4.0 TFSI engine for the new S8 plus. The sonorous V8 biturbo engine now has a power output of 445 kW (605 hp) and a maximum torque of 700 Nm (516.3 lb‑ft); in overboost mode, it can even produce 750 Nm (553.2 lb‑ft).

The large sport sedan - whose power was boosted 63 kW (85 hp) compared to the S8 - accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in 3.8 seconds, and its governed top speed of 250 km/h (155.3 mph) can optionally be increased to 305 km/h (189.5 mph)."

"The new Audi S8 plus will be available at the end of November 2015 for a base price of 145,200 euros."

You can still keep your Auris though.

It will fit in the boot

I'm as big an Audi fanboi as you likely to find on this forum but I got to say, the criticism that all models are looking the same, is valid!

Hate silver too!! Ordered mine in burgundy with cream leather interior...

/just saying

Same here, but they dont have one that matched the colour of my underwear, so I passed.

Why do all Audis's and BMW's still look the same after so many years? its old and outdated. Even Toyota updates more often than them.

If I had R2m to spend on a car, I wouldn't want it to look like a stretched entry level model. But maybe that is the appeal of the A/S8. It blends in and goes largely unnoticed.

Using Toyota design as a reference? :wtf:

Tongue in cheek, yes.

Very much so, its understated but will still rip your face off and blow your mind with its technology.
