Absolutely Amazing S8
I am brand new to this forum, just signed up two minutes ago. I'd like to share a short story that didn't start out very well but has a great ending.
In the fall of 2016 I ordered a new A8L. On the morning of my delivery my dealer wrecked my A8L. The car needed a new front fender, which they said would take a week or so repair, and they offered to discount my price a few thousand dollars. I had sold my BMW outright and my buyer had sent a truck from California to pick up the car. My BMW was headed to California. I had to bum a ride home from the dealer because no way was I going to accept a new car with a wrecked fender. I was devastated.
I knew I had to do something to turn this mess around. I told my salesman I wanted to drive something that would make me smile. Just so happened he had a new S8 sitting on the showroom floor. Three months later I took delivery of my new Daytona Gray S8 and I have been smiling ever since. I have owned a number of very special cars in my lifetime but IMO the S8 is spectacular. The combination of refined power, handling, build quality and interior quality make the S8 truly special.
I now believe in divine intervention.
