Got a tour of the new A8 at the NYC auto show.

They had the new A8 at the NYC auto show this year but it was on one of the spinning displays fenced off from the public so I inquired about a personal tour and they obliged. The interior is just great, so many new features that I cant recall them all. I dont think there was a single light bulb on the car, everything was led.

Heres one shot I got of the interior trying out the handwriting recognition which worked quite well.

Looks nice but can it hold up to that new twin turbo BMW 7 series? If I were in that market.....I would choose the V8TT.

Yeah Audi seems to have lack luster engine choices outside of the s and rs models right now.

any hints from the birdie on the tree?

S4 avant? My wife wants a new sporty wagon to haul the dog around.

RSTT? I need another RS to wheel around.

It really was, leather and alcantara covering everything.

Looks nice. It appears Audi STILL hasn't figured out how top make cup holders that actually hold a cup?
