Correct, no alcantara in 2003. But if you need it, I have a full black alcantara interior

Default Update

I have to start by thanking Bruce for his input. A few months ago I was planning on picking up a D3 SWB, but expressed concerns about being able to afford it. He reccomended a D2 S8, but initially I thought it would be too old (my current vehicle is a 2002, albeit with 140k). After doing some more research, the D2 S8, especially 2003, is really growing on me.

I am in no rush to buy a vehicle, hope to have it by August. I like to be fully prepared/researched when making a decision like this. That is why I am starting so early.

What I want:

2003 S8 with Premium Package
-Colors (Ming, Black, Silver) in that order
- Interior (Platinum is growing on me, Haven;t seen a burgundy, but want to, Black, Dark Grey, no tannish colors) The interior is my problem with Bruces '01 S8, I hate the interior.

Here is an ideal candidate for the car I am looking for in the link.

I would love a lower mileage example, or one with the T-Belt, etc. already done.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Audi-S8-S8-360-HP-2003-Audi-S8-Quattro-Navigation-Premium-Pkg-Gorgeous_W0QQitemZ300286821343QQcmdZViewItemQQptZU S_Cars_Trucks?hash=item300286821343&amp;_trksid=p4 506.c0.m245&amp;_trkparms=72%3A727%7C65%
