new car: S8 V10 MTM

[Skaala]

Finally back from travelling and some time to drive the car today. Picked it up in Bergen two weeks ago, but went to South-Korea only a few days later. Good to be back, and within the next week, I hope I can find time to do a proper photoshoot.

Some facts and figures
2007 Audi S8 5.2 V10 FSI, 1 previous owner.
46.000km (hopefully we will try and not drive it as long as 30.000km pr year as we did with the A8 and Q7)
MTM Exhaust
new cats
engine/gearbox and suspention software
MTM Wheels (10,5x21) scuffed by the previous owner :blush: and fitted with new rubber to to previos owner scuffed them on a sidewalk. The tires he installed are narrower 265 and they will be changed for 295 when it is time to change again
Carbon ceramic brakes
Additional sports suspention
4 spoke multifunction, heated steeringwheel (custom order by first owner) - most likely will be canged to 3-spoke multifunction steeringweel with S8 logo.
Extended leather by Audi Exclusive (includes dash, center console and alcantara roof and a/b/c-pillars
Carbon fiber and alu interior
Tinted rear windows and rear side windows by Audi Exclusive. Only one delivered in Norway with tinted rear windows (11.000 euro option here)
2 x '7 DVD screens in backrests. Player in glovebox
4 zone aircon
Remote operated engine and coupe heater
rear/rear side electronic sun shade
Black valcona interior with cooling fans in seats.
Electric rear seats
too much stuff to write really. Pretty much fully specced from Audi+some Audi Exclusive
last but not least....sounds f****ng unbelivable on full stick, but also some deep rough rumbeling when you come off. No youtube videos I have ever seen even comes close to the howling of the engine at 7250rpm. The microphone doesn't do it justice. Sounds so much better in real life. :music:

a few quick pics I took in the driveway yesterday when I came from travelling.

[Ruergard]

Very, very nice. Congratulations!

I'm with Fonzie. Video! :thumb:

[DHall1]

Very nice indeed. Too bad the S8 is now dead in the USA as well. If I were 10 yrs older........this may have been my car of choice.

The car needs bigger tires. Yeeks

[Ricoloco]

Very nice car, one of my favourites!

But how can tinted windows cost 11 000 euros?!!! :vhmmm:

[kju]

this car just looks so BAD and HUGE infront of the "small" house ^^

[Golffather]

Awesome car, great spec and list of mods.

11k for tints - is it solar and double glazed glass as well as being tinted?

The climate seats are great ;)

[Erik]
