Apart from what looks like expensive insurance bcuz of the aluminium body, the A8 looks better than the S500. The new A8 is a beautiful car.

I've always held the belief that Audi/VW make the best looking cars ever since they came out with the A4,A6,A8, the current Jetta, Beetles and Passats. There was one year I think it was 1998 where everything they produced looked good. With most companies, MB,Porsche and BMW included, only one or two models actually look good, with VW/Audi, even the station wagons and Eurovans look good. I love the new A4.
