Fellow Audians;  Automobile Mag gave Audi some kudos in
it Feb issue. Comments from a
4 Seasons Test of the A8:

While M-B goes downscale Audi is on the way up. They
are already meeting in the middle. Quite frankly if M-B
doesn't clean up its act soon, Audi may overtake them
in the luxury-sedan realm

To know the A8 is to love it. Like the first I-Q45, it
looks better the more miles you put on it. I want this
damned car

On the other hand:

The brakes are grinding and squealing -- the Audi
dealer claims the brakes are fine.

While the new Boxer was named Automobile of the Year,
the new A6 made the short list of nine (cut down from
22).
