Sober in grey: The 2012 Audi S8
Jun 7, 2012, 10:00 AM The new Audi S8 is brutal. More luxurious and faster than the old one, but too bad it has ‘only’ 8 instead of 10 cylinders. That’s why the car maybe will be less exciting for us spotters, because the V10 was a great and very special engine. The sound was superb, the same story with the performance. At the exterior, the S8 is like the old model, not very striking and only recognizable by some small details. Spotter Wesley photographed these details beautifully.
