Hello. I am getting ready to pull the trigger on another Audi. I owned a 2001 S8 for about six weeks, of which I had it in the shop 4 times and got frustrated and traded it for a MB E500. Well, after three years with the Benz and 110K miles, I am ready for a change.

I am leaning towards the Audi. My local dealer has three that interest me most, but I cannot decide.

2005 A8L with 49K miles = $35,800
2005 A8 with 46K miles = $32,800
or
2006 A6 4.2 S-line 27K miles = $39,000

All are Certified. Please HELP!

 

Well out of those three I would pick the A6 personally, because it is the sportiest of the bunch. What kind of driving do you normally do?

 

i agree with acollicott, the a6 is going to be the sportiest looking and turn the most heads.

 

Thanks for the input.

I do a lot of highway driving, and by a lot I mean 40K miles per year. I am a sales rep.

I drove all three, and the A6 sportline 4.2 was very sporty and handled very well. But, for what I do and need, I went with the A8L. I absolutely love it. It makes my 2003 E500 MB feel like a go cart now. Of course the MB had over 100K miles on it.

This A8L is awsome. I hope it holds up to my abuse. If it does that consistently well, and is reliable, then it will be the best car I have ever driven. I bought a 2005 Black on Black. The car is very very clean and almost like new.

 

post pics when available and congrats!

 

Nice pick. The A8L is a great car

 

Congrats on the new purchase and welcome to the club
