Amen to that... I think.  
I can confirm that I recoded my wifes A8 to IIRC "sport mode" and it
literally transformed the car.  Whilst "I" would pursue an S8 if any 8, an
A8 is PLENTY fine too.  Other than brakes and suspension, there are not many
D2 upgrade mods, although the group is chasing some HRSB(tm;)
I highly recommend the "post face lift" or 2000 + versions.  All are very
good buys.  Did I mention these cars are great buys and dam nice rides?
