Look! Seriously. Look at this sexy beast of German engineering! Granted the interior is a little distracting for those of us who think every road is a race track (and we just wanna open her up and go), she’s still one sexy lady. The exterior is more than eye-catching; it’s drool worthy. Ok, so maybe if the photos were of a black S8 Plus, she’d be sexier, but you get my point (oh, and this is the limited edition matte silver color only available on the S8 Plus). Personally, I’m all about the rear end, and the only one that ever blew me away like this one is the A8.
Noah Joseph over at autoblog had this to say ” “Plus” doesn’t even begin to describe the enhancements Audi and Quattro GmbH have wrought on the ultimate new version of the A8 sedan. Power is increased from 520 horsepower to 605, besting anything else in its class.”
From Audi’s press release:
The pinnacle of sportiness – the new Audi S8 plus
– Highest powered sport sedan in the premium segment
– 4.0 TFSI engine outputs 445 kW (605 hp) and up to 750 Nm (553.2 lb ft)
– Zero to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in 3.8 seconds; top speed of up to 305 km/h (189.5 mph)
I don’t know about you, but this kinda makes me want to move to Germany, since there’s no word yet if the S8 Plus is coming here to the states. If it does, be prepared for a 140K+ price tag. Also, if you get one, would you kindly let me go for a ride in the passenger seat? Maybe even a test drive playing ping pong on the interstate?
Since I’m so in love with this car, I’ll be following it and its potential US release, so I’ll keep you updated!
Later,
Amanda
