Default A6 3.0t or a8l?????

Whats up audi wprld, im getting another audi because of hpw crazy reliable the old 99 a6 i have has been. I found an 07 a8l 4.2 with 100k miles for the same price as a 2010 a6 3.0t but that has an extra 40k miles on it. Can anyone give me some feed back on these 2 cars, which they would pick for what reason?

This entirely depends upon what you value. If you are looking for a more luxurious ride and features, the A8 is probably the better option, however be aware that maintenance on that vehicle will be more costly as well. It's heavier and will eat up steering and suspension components more so.

The A6's 3.0T is far more tuneable and can outrun more vehicles, plus there are a lot of components you can add: sway bars, suspension - to make it perform and handle better

In both cases, get yourself a thorough PPI (prepurchase inspection) and make sure you know what you are getting yourself into, in terms of repairs and maintenance.
