Default Hello, my name is Jim and I am a car-aholic.

Just traded my 2012 Corvette Coupe Centennial edition on a very gently used Audi S8. I was tried of making the "old man grunting noise" as I entered and exited the vehicle, and my wife wanted something quieter on the highway. She doesn't suspect that my S8 is faster than the 'vett...(don't tell her).
Just wanted to say Thanks for the many good discussions on this forum (referenced while searching for my car).

I'm thrilled with my A8l so I can only imagine the S8.
Congrats.
Dynamic for you, comfort for her. It's a win win

I thought I put a picture in my Signature....testing one two three...where's the Car?

Options: All of them...not true...it has the Standard Bose audio instead of the B/O (WOW $6000) upgrade option!

Night Vision Assist
Adaptive Cruse Control
22 way, (massaging, heated, cooled) driver and passenger seat.
BlindSpot Assist

Probably a bunch of stuff I haven't even figured out yet!

A very fine choice on your new S8! You'll enjoy it and it will cure your 'old man grunting noise problem'

Congratulations and welcome! Other than the inability to smoke the tires I think you'll really enjoy the S8. They are properly fast cars and extremely comfortable as well. Congratulations and welcome!

I still haven't seen the pic or color. At this point many pics will be required now.
I don't think Audi makes too many bad colors anyway. Mi do like the white pearl, sand/ tan, frosty green tint,wine/ burgundy etc just no fire engine red. My fav is black w/ tan int though.
