 In many classic epics the hero has to persevere through trials and tribulations, proving his worthiness, his wherewithal and his resolve. In this epic, set in the modern urban background of the New York metropolitan area, our hero was tried and his success can be gauged in the form of this stunning ebony S8. Read More --->HERE

Hmm I seem to recall a few GAD members here that scoffed at an A8 posted with 20" wheels. Something about killing the handling/acceleration? Anyway, this is a marvelous machine, although the article reads more like an advertisment for Car Graphic, USA for a sweeeeet ride (even though I'm a 32v fan )

Holy crap! That's the clean, understated, elegant styling that BMW has lost... but Audi has retained. IMO, the Phaeton is closer to grace and menacing looks of the previous-gen A8 than the current A8 (also great in its own way) is. Man, that car is perfect

Lader is the german word for charger. VW's charger had a similar shape to the letter G, hence the name. | Quote » | | PerL, wnat to correct me on this? |

I'm not so sure that 20" BBS LMs are "subtle" but it doesn't really matter because the car is the sweetness

Absolutely bad ass.But I'd have made the exhaust outlets flush with the rear valence, and gotten rid of the chrome surrounds. That's a bit over the top for such a classy machine. Still....damn.

nice car.... I guess money does buy attention...at least it's fairly tasteful. 20's, coilovers, exhaust, chip can make any expensive car stand out tho.  I'll save being impressed until he drops the compression, fabs up some tubular manifolds, and throws a pair of turbos on it.... A car that looks like that should have several hundred more horsepower than stock IMHO.
