The 2015 Audi S8: before you buy
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2015 Audi S8 for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page helps you judge the 2015 Audi S8 before you buy one anywhere.
What to check on the S8
There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Reading the spec sheet
The 4.0L 8-cylinder turbo, paired with an 8-speed automatic, drives it. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
It is rated at 11.9 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 36 litres. Every 100 km costs about $20.83 in fuel at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,100 a year for 15,000 miles.
Practical details
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. Its 425 litres of luggage space fit a family's bags for a long weekend.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
A longer test drive
Try the S8 on your commute, then decide. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
Money matters
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.
Which one to look for
Within the 2015 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
One more step
A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
Rent it for a week before you buy
