Default New S8 owner!

I am now the proud owner of a 2003 Ming Blue Audi S8. I'm loving this thing so far as a complement to my 86 944 Turbo. Pics will be coming later, but you can see them at Maplewood Audi's website. Any other S8 owners in the Chicago area?

Congrats! This is Bruce, the warranty guy. There are a few in Chi-town, notably Tozo.

Default Welcome aboard!

Chicago is blessed with a huge D2 knowledge base, namely Paul W and TozoGabor. Without the help of these geniuses, I would almost certainly have moved to something else by now.
Chicago is for sure a D2 kind of town.
