Revolutionary for almost 30 years: Audi V8 | DW English

In 1988, the key ingredients of Audi's flagship were four-wheel drive, eight cylinders, and automatic transmission. With this winning combination, then-CEO Ferdinand Piëch ventured into the league of automotive luxury.

This is the best handling 4 door Audi i have ever experienced. Missed it

This is a beautiful car. Don’t know how it was outdated. It’s timeless.

Thanks for the video. This car blew my mind when I was a kid. It really got me into cars and Audi's. My Grandparents owned one new in glacier blue. Living in upstate NY it was one of the very few vehicles that got around so well in the snow thanks to quattro with a rear Torsen differential. I own it now, its the most sentimental thing I have. It had survived 25 years up north very well and continues to impress people. It is so nice to drive and ride in. I wish it was a stick shift, but its great as a cruiser with the automatic. It still has the 'UFO' brake rotors. Such a special car.

Those DTM cars were legendary

The D2 A8/S8 is the best looking car ever built.

Nearly traded for one... and wish I had. The Bose audio was the best sound I'd heard yet, in a full size sedan.

A very fine car. I also really like the way it looks, although not many people did back in the day, it seems.

Even today it’s still an absolutely sexy car. Lower it and put some nice wheels on it and you have a winner.

What's next? Ferrari and Lamborghini moves to Mexico?

[@VanquishMediaDE]

Would not surprise me.

[@tmajec]

Why not? Many people want to be snubs but won’t admit their own insecurities. Corporations always want to maximize their profits, at all costs.

It's not a sedan
