Dual Pane glass, Alcantara headline and the Bang and Olufsen stereo team up to blow away any Mercedes or Bimmer, the quiet interior with high resolution MP3s or CDs are the way to go... Joining the 600 HP club where mashing the pedal pinning you into the seat; it's just a feeling you can't replicate. Also, the shiatsu massaging seats put Mercedes to shame.The Bimmers are still VERY MUCH a true driving machine where as the S8Plus is an A8 with racing engine, and I doubt I could outmaneuver an Alpina. But 0-60 I can take an Alpina. That being said, I've only ever mashed the pedal twice, just for the kids, and yes, an A8 would have been more practical for my style of driving.

This is tough car to recommend to a friend for a lot of the same reason I purchased it. This car is severely understated, even when it comes to people who know or own Mercedes S-class, BMW 7 series, even some Audi A8 owners. If you're trying to buy this car to impress others, I suggest saving some serious coin & purchase a A8 as it carries the same prestige. If you want to be a "baller" go with AMG S63 or S65. If your looking for a car that cares more about how it drives, You owe it to yourself to take one for a test drive.

Pros

Power: Effortess Power. Then there is even more power.
Technology and Entertainment: Audi MMI technology can be learned via Audi directional videos. The Bang & Olufsen sound system is superb.
Seat Comfort: With 20+ individual seat adjusments it almost seems infinite, not to mention the awsome front seat massage chairs.

Cons

Cost to Maintain: With a purchase of $140k when new car, be prepared for the financial expense of owning such a vehicle. Everthing from maint. to Insurance is going to be costly.
Cargo Space: Really nitpicking here but if you're considering a car in this class. Audi trunk has one of the smallest cubic ft. in its class. Also wish rear seat legroom was a bit more ample.
Ride and Handling: Again I'm nitpicking here but If you're looking a sports car or even a midsize sports sedan (BMW M5, Merced AMG E-class, etc). This car is not for you. This car drives & handles everybit as large as it is.
