Ladies and gentlemen, this is an awesome Audi A8L that is being offered up for auction. The vehicle is loaded with every imaginable option plus some. The rare and highly sought after Atlas Gray Metallic paint is fabulous and the rare matching gray leather interior is in superb condition. This one owner vehicle has only 34,468 loving applied miles. This 2004 Audi has car-savvy people taking a closer look. They discover that this car is full of surprises, like a V8 with 5 valves per cylinder for a total of 40 valves and 320 horsepower, or a 6 speed automatic transmission that seems to read your mind. Let's not forget the new air suspension system that gives this car one of the best rides I have yet experienced without compromising on its road feel and solid handling. And of course we all know that Audi is famous for their Quattro all-wheel drive system The 2004 A8L is built on a third generation aluminum space frame that is stronger and lighter than on previous cars. It is constructed using fewer parts which allow for more precise fit and easier assembly. Several sections of this frame are cast aluminum for enhanced rigidity. In fact, this structure is 60 percent more rigid than on the previous model and weighs in at 300 pounds lighter to boot. The aluminum body panels fit together flawlessly into a sweeping flow of lines and curves that looks like it is moving at warp speed while waiting for the traffic light to turn green. And when it does, a slight nudge on the throttle will whoosh you back to super-legal speeds in a seemingly effortless display of quiet power. Once you start the car, the navigation display motors up from its hiding place behind a retractable panel. Once in position, it is controlled by a large knob on the console surrounded by eight function keys. This system is called the Audi Multi Media Interface. It is sort of like the BMW iDrive system, but not quite as elaborate. I found it to be somewhat easier to master than the BMW system, but it still requires some quality reading time with the owner's manual in order to master all the system's features. This car has a masterful command of the road. The ride is smooth and quiet over most road surfaces. It will absorb ruts and bumps in its path as though they weren't there. This is all thanks to a marvelous computer controlled air suspension system called the Audi Adaptive Air Suspension system. It combines a soft ride with excellent handling characteristics for such a large car. The only car that can equal or top this level of competence is the Mercedes S-Class. There is a ton of room in the rear seat. Most people can sit back there and not be able to touch the front seatback with their outstretched legs. Plenty of comfort back there as well with optional 4-way lumbar support for outboard passengers and standard sunshades that pull up out of the doors. There is also an available four zone heating and air conditioning system so that each outboard passenger has full control over their individual comfort. Seat heaters for front and rear passengers are also available. A large, well tailored trunk brings up the rear. In our test car, pressing the trunk release on the remote doesn't just unlock the lid, it motors it to full open. Pressing a large red button on the trunk lid reverses the process until it is closed and locked. Lots of air bags will make you feel snug and cozy in the event you bit off more than you can chew.
