Beautiful car, just 'seems' insanely big.

Can't really ever justify getting something that big.

Here you go!

Absolutely want the rims.














Anyone catch the blue RS5 in the back ground? If you did, you get this bonus pic!

I dunno, my A6 already feels like a big car to me. The A8/S8 probably feels even bigger. Not sure if that's a good thing or not. But then I watch "The Transporter" and I think... GOTTA HAVE ONE!

I believe its a Lane Assist sensor and also speed limit sensor but I could be totally wrong.

Celestial navigation?
Anti aircraft missile guidance system?
Red light camera jammer?
On board digital recording system?

HAHAHAH!

Problem is, I couldn't find the lane assist button in the S8... I looked at the Stalk (didn't take a pic )

Lane assist uses the top camera, the bottom camera/sensor seems to include an air sensor.

If it's missile defense system, I'd be all over that car... those pesky jets keep hitting close.
