Default What's scary is that the S8 does the best as far as % depreciation (most residual)!!!

Ans they still are a very good value!

All I can say is, Thank you, all you new A8 / S8 buyers! (More interested in an A8L myself.)

With a 27% residual, Audi doesn't have much of an expectation for the R8 either.

Default "what's left". Heh I've been meaning to bug one of me enginerd friends - calculate Alumibish's...

...cash-redemption value if you were to boil off all consumables and smelt it down to an aluminum wad. Aluminum's got great value these days ya know?

Dare some one.

8-)

We got *quite* the snicker out of this prospect back a few Gathering of Fools ago, bellylaughs.

Issues... I've got 'em.
