[V8] Whats the Next "V8"

[Charles Wurts]

That is a tough one, and perhaps why this list has the high quality 
following that it does.  I now have second car  and yet I can't part 
with my beast.  I keep hoping that I will be able to take it out of 
service for a stretch of time to re-bush the front end,  R & R the 
rack, and a laundry list of other to do items.  I am at 170k and am 
thinking that I want to give it some love.

The A6 V8 is still a little high, but I am expecting that may change as 
the new A6 gets established.  The A8 is a little too big and electrical 
for my taste.  Could be a mid 90's S6, but the miles are likely to be 
high in addition to being unobtainium in your neck of the woods.  Its a 
catch 22.  Long live the V8!
