The 2003 Audi S8: before you buy
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2003 Audi S8; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. We do not lease cars. A monthly rental has no long contract: each booking runs up to 365 days. This page puts the 2003 Audi S8 in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Recalls and complaints
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
Reading the spec sheet
Power comes from the 4.2L 8-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.
Its combined rating is 14.7 L/100 km, which means roughly 44 litres for 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $77.19 in energy at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$5,150 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Who it is for
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Inside and out
As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. Luggage space is rated at 510 litres: a family's bags for a long weekend.
Drive it on your own roads
Try the S8 on your commute, then decide. Drive the S8 on your commute before you commit to it. If the S8 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
Picking a year and a trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
Running costs
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$5,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $257.30 at our price setting.
