The A8's warm weather package is modified to improve electronic accessory performance, while dual-pane laminated glass replaces insulated glass. Standard on the A8 is a larger right outside mirror, a first aid kit and a CD changer. A premium leather/Alcantara trim package and a new Volcano Black exterior paint color are optional. A8 prices will remain unchanged from 1998.

Unique - 1999 Audi A8
By Dundee - February 23 - 2:00 amI love my A8. All wheel drive makes it a MUST in Michigan. $550 for a broken armrest, drivers side only is a bit insane, but I expected it. I cant find any performance accessories for it on line.

Never follow - 1999 Audi A8
By GDFofHouston - January 24 - 2:00 amI purchased an A8 because a BMW service advisor recommended it over a similar 740. He was right! Not only was it thousands less, but the performance is remarkable. The car is noticeably more nimble than the BMW. The quattro system was superb during the fall monsoons in Houston. Advantage Audi in Houston treated me like royalty when I brought the car in for an oil change, which surprised me as I bought the car in Ohio. If you havent driven one, you should before you buy any other premium car.

One of the Best BigEuro Sedans ever made - 1999 Audi A8
By Brutus - July 8 - 2:00 amUnderstated luxury in an all-aluminum chassis and body. Its sportslike handling capabilities from this "big cat" is just one of great things about this Audi A8. After 3 years, it still is as beautiful as the day I picked it up and has the same tight and powerful drive feel too.

Pearl 1999 A8Q - 1999 Audi A8
By MAZ - May 6 - 2:00 amBought the car with 2600 miles on it from Audi. Great cruiser, handles pretty well for a 4k lb car, German comfort/build quality and quattro cannot be beat. Burled walnut everywhere. The Bose stereo is only OK - thats the only gripe I really have as far as features. A+ seats - big, firm and adjustable.

What a car! - 1999 Audi A8
By bob franks - March 13 - 2:00 amThis car is a great car in every way. There is not a bit or wind or road noise at speeds of 75+ mph. Also the engine is very powerful and quiet. This car can handle better than cars that are much smaller and feels no larger than the A6 on the road.
