Picked up the new '03 A8L today
All I can say is WOW.. I can't believe how nice the car looks in your own driveway 
I ended up going with an '03 A8L, Premium Pkg, Ming Blue color and Beige interior.
Not even interested in considering an upgrade to the new '04 body style.
The delivery process was a non-event.. very professional, not a single complaint. Even with the trade-in of my '01 Saab 9-5 SE.
Now... if I can only keep it looking new for years to come.

With proper care, an A8 can look (and drive) like new for several years.....
I still get comments from people asking me when I got my NEW car! Not bad for a 5 year old vehicle. The materials of construction used by Audi in the A8 are the best available (as would be expected in a car that costs this much) and they tend to last for a long time. Congrats on your purchase- you won't be disappointed!

Re: Proper Care
I just came in from washing and claying my "new" off-lease '99. The car looked good to start, paint is in good shape, but, Boy! did the clay pull ever some junk off of the paint!
Car is now in the garage, wife is picking up take-out Chinese food on her way home. Then it's back to the garage for polishing, glazing, sealing, waxing, etc. Some tonight after dinner, the rest in the AM.
My effort at proper care. ;-)
