HBL told me the same thing. I saw "it" when I picked up my S6. It was Daytona Grey - very nice.

that was before Audi climbed up to much higher place on the resale value list, mostly having to do with their dramatic change in technologies and quality of product

I just picked one up last week and it is sensational. I also have an M5 and they are very different cars. The M5 is a lot sportier while the S8 is more luxurious.

I was planning on just keeping the S8 until my S65 showed up next spring but I think I'm hooked. I just might have to pass on the S65.

In any case, you can't go wrong with any of them.

Thanks guys. As for the S65, I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. Probably with a lot advice, or should I say enabling, from you guys.

www.northbayimports.com is a good place to look for 06's and Riverbay Audi in NJ also has some.
I test drove the regular A8 b/f getting the 545 and found the Audi not "sporting" enough for me. The Turbo stays no matter what.
