Hard to answer what best fits in your budget without knowing your budget.

Usually the last of the run are the best cars - so for the gen2 that would be a 2018. I forget now, didn't the gen2 V8s have that turbo oil cooler line issue? I would look for a car where that has been remediated already.

Looking at a 2015 GTC 24K miles
2 owners all service records.
v8 base mulliner
around 80K price……
is it quite easy to source VW or Audi parts for this? Good price? Is there a third-party aftermarket warranty that anyone recommends?
seems electronics with the infotainment system could be an issue down the road ? suspension and obviously retractable roof. Anything else to be weary of thank you so much and thanks and advance.

See the thread running now on the V8 Turbo oil screen. Big time known Audi issue.

I don't know how much the fix is if gets to that point - the key is to find a car where its been remediated already, or if not, build your own remediation cost for it into the offered price.
