The A8 is Audi's largest, most sophisticated sedan: Comfortable, fast, very smooth and it raises the performance bar in many respects in this ultra-luxury class.
The A8 is available in three variants: the A8 4.2 quattro; the A8 L 4.2 quattro; and the A8 L 6.0 quattro. The 4.2 models are powered by a 330-horsepower 4.2-liter four-cam V8 with Audi's five-valve-per-cylinder technology. A six-speed automatic transmission with Tiptronic manual shift control is the only transmission offered, feeding power to Audi's standard quattro fulltime all-wheel-drive system. The A8 L 6.0 features Audi's unique, 440-horsepower W12 engine and ultra-luxury amenities.
For 2006, Audi A8 changes are minimal.
Purchasing an older vehicle, such as the 2006 Audi A8, makes good financial sense. You're able to avoid the steep depreciation rates that occur with brand new vehicles. This essentially gives you the advantage of getting a 2006 Audi A8 for less money than when it was new. If the 2006 Audi A8 was properly maintained, you also have a good chance of steering clear of problems that would have developed when the car was new.
The amount you pay for an older car depends on various factors. One important element is where you buy the vehicle. You're likely to get a better deal if you buy it from a private party, as opposed to a dealer. On the other hand, a reputable dealer will normally have some kind of limited warranty, so you can drive away knowing that if the car breaks down right away, you'll be covered. Another factor that may affect price on a 2006 Audi A8 is whether it's "certified" by the manufacturer. A certified vehicle will cost more because warranty service is provided that normally doesn't come with a used car.
Another dynamic that will play into the purchase price is the resale value. A used vehicle with a high resale value will obviously cost you more. It is expected that the 2006 Audi A8 will have a good-fair resale value. This assumes that the 2006 Audi A8 is in good condition and has a reasonable number of miles.
