New Audi S8 In Depth
I'd take this over the S55, too
Now if BMW built an ///M7 with a handbuilt, high revving >600 HP V12 (along the lines of the 507 HP V10 in the M5 & M6), I'd have to pick that...
Of course, BMW has said (read it once again in this month's Motor Trend or C&D) that it won't build M versions of vehicles that can't handle in the true spirit of an M-car, hence no M versions of the 7, X3, X5, or the forthcoming R-Class competitor.
Back on topic, I prefer the interior/exterior styling of the Audi anyhow, and having the Gallardo-derived engine is pretty nice, too

I think Audi is producing some beautiful machines and IMO have surpassed BMW and Benz.
Also, they make a gorgeous interior.
This is good for us as better competition has to keep Lexus on their toes.
