Default Looking for 2002 or 2003 S8 - Any leads?

New member/poster looking for new or nearly new 2002 or 2003 S8. Must have clean history and low or no miles. Would prefer car located in Mid-Atlantic or Southeast but will travel for the right car. What should I expect to pay? Dealer or private party okay. Please email comments or details off line if you prefer. czach928@aol.com

TIA.

Yeah man! Good to hear from you. We sold the Schnitzer 740iL and looking for something that will compare only with more power! Had an Audi some years ago and really like what they are doing these days. They also take their racing very serious(unlike Porsche who would rather build trucks!). Sure would like some experts here to give opinions about what I can expect to pay. Are the stealers dealin?

With Don driving, lap times were identical to an Acura NSX driven by an instructor from the Mid-Ohio school :-)<ul><li><a href="http://www.pccchicago.com/paul/midohio0.html">S8 at Mid-Ohio</a></li></ul>

Default My local dealership has(had) 2 on the lot that they were....

BEGGING to get rid of......in Connecticut though

Valenti Motors - (860) 274-8846

Careful with them, their sales staff is a bunch of a$$holes......I didn't get to test drive anything there until I bought my A8 through a private party, then they were nice as pie to me

Default My dealer was selling a brand new (2002) S8 last month for $65000....

Don't know if the AoA incentive is still on this month. You can call Terry Minnick at Prestige Audi in Denver (303-938-8101). He seems to get high quality used Audis at good prices too. He looks cars all over the country. I'm presently driving (as a loaner) a 2001 silver S8 with about 16000 mile on it that is priced at $59,900. Very tempting but I'm going to wait for my RS6 test drive to make a decision.

Good luck.The S8 is a great car.
