Being a proud owner of an S65 Audi should not attempt to fool anyone with this obvious pompous ad. I love Audi's but let’s be real. Audi’s are Taxi Cabs in Germany. Comparing it to an S is a little desperate. Most S class owners would consider an A8 a step down. I wouldn’t even consider an S8 over my S65. As far as the interior, Audi does do those well as anyone in the industry regardless of model.

So, let me get this straight. They've managed to not only alienate and piss off potential buyers of the A8, they've also managed to recreate a Buick advertisement?
((((((( Stern glare from S Class owners))))))
Good going Audi, you fvcking retards!!! Enjoy your lackluster sales and loytalty. Too bad AUDI has NO CLUE how to maintain a loyal following such as the S Class owners.

Last model S8 was perfect IMO, but the new A8 just doesn't do it for me. They are very elegant inside, but I just always look at them and see a stretched A4. It just doesn't have the soul to me that an S63 has, but then again, I would definitely take a Quattroporte any day of the week.

So you simply ordered a car or Limo service... did it have a taxi meter in it. Doubt it. Those are a dime a dozen in NYC. Hope you enjoyed the ride.
