Bonuses? You know something I don't?

Took the wife by today while the dealership was closed to let her take a look.

Looks like it does have the carbon fiber package and the B&O sound system.

^ From the second picture, it looks like that car has the 19" RS4 wheels. I know the S8 had two different 20" wheel options (5 spoke and a flatter 6 or 8 spoke design), but those wheels look to have more arc in the spoke. Make sure you're getting the right wheels . . .

Hmm, I've looked up the 20" wheels you mentioned and I think I like the ones on it better. Now that you mention it I remember those were on Chris' RS4 and they look hot.

I think I prefer these, but I won't let that keep me from using the "wrong wheels" against them.

That S8 looks like it's perfectly spec'ed. I'd throw $58K at them and see what they say. If you get it for under $60K, it's a deal, imo.

Like I told you at work, Audi does make 20" RS4 wheels, so pray those are them. It looks good - DO IT!!!

No kidding? In the same design as the standard 19" RS4 wheel?

Sidewall looks too large to be a 20" wheel to me.

Yeah it's hard to to tell from there, but there is a 20" RS4-style wheel that is OEM on A8/S8. I saw a beautiful black S8 being delivered with them. There is even a 21" RS4-style wheel for the Q7.

Here's a pic:

look like 19s....but maybe it`s just the perspective which makes the wheels look smaller
