Looking through the S8 listings provided in the Ebay Challenge from today, I was rather dismayed to find !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , a 2001 Audi S8 for $8000. Now of course, you might be thinking, "Aha, but it probably has a million and one miles, and therefor will never run again!" Nope. 68k miles. On the downside, it is an automatic, and does has a depressingly grey interior. However, keeping in mind what I drive, how much I paid for it, and how many miles are on the clock, would you recommend I run out right now and ask for an exchange? Or is it possibly a scam (that odometer reading seems unreal)?

( Full Disclosure: I love my car, and do not wish to exchange it for this one just to enjoy 30 more HP, fewer miles, increased repair bills, and an interior that makes me reach for the Cymbalta.)

I used to own a 97' A8 4.2 Quattro. It was an amazing car. Just so you know..one radiator hose and waterpump replacement cost me almost $1600. The hose was $140 and the waterpump was $325. They had to remove the entire front end to replace them. The mechanic shop is owned by a friend so dont tell me I was hosed (pun definitely intended). ;-)

Thanks for the warning, but it's kinda too late for me to save myself.

I love these cars! I haven't had one, but it's on my bucket list. The price seems pretty good based on the milage and the ads I've seen on my local CL

If I wanted to have a better way to throw away my money, I'd definitely look at this generation S8.

I still want a new A8 TDI.

Hook it up with Uber and it will pay for itself!

beautiful car, just remember that the auto's reverse clutches aren't very good (first hand experience )

I would so DD this and tell everyone is a 2009 model. I don't think anyone would notice.
