I'd definately go for the option Carbon-Ceramic brakes. £6k is a snip!

Gotta go with the W-12. What a sexy automobile. Every time I see one I have an instant chubby.

All depends on what you want. I have not driven either but I would suspect the S8 handles better and the suspension is probably a little stiffer. S8 more driver oriented and the W12 more of a luxo cruiser. Wish I could afford either.

S8 is the perfect all rounder IMHO.

I'm on the fence between S8 and S6 at the moment?

i have a 2006 W-12 and the audi website says the car goes from 0-60 in 5 seconds? Is that true? my younger is 350 seems to always beat it. Can someone tell me what the deal is and where I can find out the specs beside Audi.com?

I have driven in both a W12 and S8. Of course W12 is luxury and S8 is sporty. I prefer the W12 because it really pulls and puts you in the seat. The S8 and S6 pulls but not like the W12. S8 and S6 are the same engines, just the S8 has about 15hp more because of tuning. Can't have the S6 better than the S8! Know what i mean. Good luck on your decision. May the Rings be with you!
