Default Somebody got a steal on ebay.

I've been following A8s lately and this is as cheap as I've seen one in nice condition. It doesn't bode well for me selling mine on ebay.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;item=2448696563&amp;cat egory=6005">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;item=2448696563&amp;cat egory=6005</a</li></ul>

Default Lets wait and see if he gets the car...Seller has backed out of.....

"NO RESERVE" auctions before.

However that is a Good Deal if it goes through!

See Link<ul><li><a href="http://cgi2.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&amp;userid=buypay">http ://cgi2.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&amp;userid=buypay</a</li></ul>

Default Re: It has additional upgrades not mentioned

<center><img src="http://www.compassluxor.com/autotrader/00A8LGreyTan_YN012483/DSC00001.JPG"></center><p>Did you notice the K40 Undetectable Rader Detector (switch located at driver left knee dash). That's a $1,500 install upgrade!

Yet, the rear seat leather looks oddly worn (wrinkled). Maybe kid's car seats?

Finally, does anyone else have a similar sunroof liner with a vent (last picture). My 2000 A8L has a one-piece solid headliner.

Default Re: What's the difference in designs?

<center><img src="http://www.compassluxor.com/autotrader/00A8LGreyTan_YN012483/DSC00001.JPG"></center><p>Wondering what the design/functioning differences are (vented vs non-vented)?

Does the vented design let light come through?

Very little if any light comes through, but what it does let you do it raise the sunroof, while still blocking the sun and still get the venting effect.

Default You are talking about the solar sunroof option..Why are these cars losing value??

First thing I would like to say is after spending $75,000 on a loaded new A8L in 2001 and then seeing this 2000 L going for under $25,000 is a disgrace to Audi! What is going on here? Why are these grand cars losing their value so damm fast? I knew the Audi cars dropped in value when I bought mine but I did not care..I wanted to have one brand new as I never plan on selling mine and It still only has a few thousand miles on it..A used A8 must be the best buy in the world! Name another $75,000 car that you can buy for $50,000 less in only 3 years? Shame Shame Shame on this!
