Choices, choices. The Bimmer or the Benz? Everyone and their brother is driving a BMW, and that new S-Class just leaves you feeling flat. Maybe it’s time to consider Audi as an alternative, the company that now offers a 450-horsepower all-wheel-drive sedan that hustles to 60 mph in five seconds, and does so with a bevy of luxury features in tow.

Due to hit lots in the fall of 2006, the 2007 Audi S8 adds a generous dose of sport to the brand’s flagship, the A8, with its ten-cylinder engine, specially-tuned adaptive air suspension, 20-inch alloy wheels, and contoured seats cloaked in Valcona leather. And for luxury sport sedan buyers desiring an added touch of exclusivity, may we suggest the S8-specific Daytona Grey pearl finish.
