2005 AUDI A8L W12 QUATTRO

About a year ago, I took a look at the top of the heap of Audis in the early 2000s - the A8 W12 . With a sticker price of around $120,000, it was five times more expensive than the A4 1.8T quattro.

So, you have more space, more luxury, and more power—450 horsepower, to be exact. The standard luxuries were also impressive. Audi MMI system, 16-way power front seats with Valcona leather trim, massage and ventilation, rear seat DVD entertainment, Bose surround sound system, wood trim, power rear side window shades, heated front and rear seats… basically , this was a Swiss ski resort that could go very quickly - to a Swiss ski resort. Today's car also has some very expensive options; $2k adaptive cruise control, 20-inch wheels, sunroof, custom interior, and full leather upgrade.


Last year's example came on the market with 60,000 miles and an asking price of $68,000—hard to justify in my mind. car today? Well, let's say it's been put to good use, but it still looks good. What is the equivalent of the mileage deduction?

Car runs and drives great, engine sounds good and no issues, transmission is great, this car is fully loaded.

I have an original dealer window sticker when new $130,000 air suspension works great MMI with radio works great. All door soft closing systems air conditioning and cool air blowing. Roof running on all windows. All electric and heated seats work. There are no dash lights.

Entertainment system with remote control and original speakers. Electrical bag business.

The electric sunshade grilles on the rear sides and rear windows work great. The Audi D3 W12 has now been upgraded in value to the D3 S8 because it is the last real Audi limousine with a rare powerful engine and has been built to the highest quality!
