Default This Thing is Big

Almost 3 weeks into ownership of new S8, and just gave it its first wash job this afternoon. Boy, this thing is big. It must have 4 times the surface area of my 911 Cab. But, all in all, it wasn't that bad.

The car was delivered with nitrogen filled tires. Is this a dealer thing or an Audi thing? I'm of the opinion that nitrogen filled tires are a complete waste of time.

LOL, be glad it's not an A8L...

I prefer the nitrogen fill as they tend to leak very very very little over time in my experience, no matter the temperature.

My A8 didn't come with nitrogen, so it may be a model or dealer thing.
