Bittersweet as one Daytona leaves

And my S8 in Daytona arrives. I still have my 50k mile Avus and the Avant conversion so we shall just make it work.
Sweet S8 congrats, can you share some first impressions with the S8 coming from the RS6 into the S8 experience.
These are looking more and more attractive as the FMV depreciates.
What year did you go with? I heard not to buy the plus model from some guy who had one due to the hella expensive brake rotor replacement cost on the plus model although not sure if that is accurate (cost is only an issue in absence of value IMHO.... Any Insight on this topic appreciated:S8:
Tomorrow night is the night.
Cold front rolled in today. Temps dropping 25 degrees in time for tomorrow nite.
Nistah
thanks, I have a 13 Daytona/black w/56k. I really wanted a 13-14 because I like those head and tail lamps better than the 15+
No doubt this is a larger car but it's not too heavy. Still light on its feet and handles great. I just like the look much better than the RS7. Better price points too.
I have no need for a plus model. My APR tune takes care of all that nonsense.
No go
DA only dropped to 3000ft
we have shitty da here
11.10@125 on completely stock exhaust.
My APR downpipes are on the way.
Progress is good.....these are pretty sweet

Bueller?
We're so busy it's nuts. I bought another Q7 Tdi just because. Lol
APR downpipes and midpipes going in now. Losing the middle resonators so it should wake up the sound just a tad.
Full APR stage 2 tuning with switching maps done tomorrow.
720/750. Watch out idjuits
Oh boy

The old dog getting some love. May try to make camp allroad in Lake Tahoe this month

If it doesn't shine why bother. Avant beating the streets this week
S8 news....heat hardly slows this car down. It's brutally fast all the time. I have some forged 20inch RS7 wheels going on to lighten rotating mass from the 21s. Like it needs it but come this fall we're going for all out assault on 10.60s!

It's my commuter this week

I still have a pile of parts to install. Including a new rear arm and cap. Genuine rear spoiler as well.
Making the final decision on how much more to paint. There are small rock chips on the hood and fenders and the two rockers. I just wanna drive it! Lol
S8 seems to be the new car of choice for peeps. I have been watching them and almost bought one but decided to do an avant swap on my rs6 instead for now. Keep the updates coming though. Im interested in seeing them!
Don't take the blue pill!
buy the S8
Well you can have my RS6 Avant conversion already done for 20k. Certainly you can't duplicate it for under 30
You could fly down and drive this to camp allroad and then back to MN.
I'm guessing that you already have one if you kept the liftgate from your S6, but I've got a US spec license plate holder that's all black (not the smoked reflective background) and might have already been modded for dual fogs. I also had it professionally polished but never installed it and it's sat for many years. Probably needs redone. I might just toss it or throw it up on one of the sites where it will get more traffic. LMK if you need it.
I've also got a set of professionally powdercoated matte black door handle pulls that are indistinguishable from the OEM RS6 ones.
Thanks Steve. Yeah, I have the US plate tub just wanted to try the euro
i just missed going to camp allroad this year in Tahoe as we speak.
Its almost done

Now you have me interested in the Audi S8
I am about the sell my RS6 ( its Sad but true )
What year(s) are you guys referring to and what price point should I look at
Also, are these S8 high maintenance compared to our RS6
Any suggestions would be appreciated
thank you
Adam
