Anyone seen any pics of new A8? Current model looks too much like old 5000. Is it out this spring?

Default Here are some "probables" (in my view, anyway) from earlier posts --------->

Spy shot...

These shots show an "S8" i.d., and appear legit...

...and then there's this photo-shopped unlikely candidate...

Thanks. Think you are right about the "chopped" photo. Looks like an A4 job. Others look legit.

In the December issue of R&T there is a picture of the Audi Avantissimo. (from the Frankfurt show) They say it gives a good view of what the next A8 will look like.

It looks good!
