my vag-comm could be useful again!

Those who drove both - how does it compare to chipped S4?

Default Personally I would throw another $10K into it and get the new A8L....
much better looking car, much more up to date, stiffer chassis and within 30HP of the S8.

If you like it and can afford it, I say go for it. I'd love to have one.

Default my dad just got the '04 A8L in oyster, it's quite a ride -
we've had it for over 3 weeks and we're STILL finding features on it. Craziness. The suspension is *awesome* as well We hit some railroad tracks doing 70 on the high setting, I didn't know they were there lol
