Buying the Audi S8

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the Audi S8; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. This page helps you judge the Audi S8 before you buy one anywhere.

A buyer's checks

Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. 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. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

The figures, translated

The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.

Best uses

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

The S8 in everyday use

Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives.

Drive it on your own roads

Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the S8 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

Which one to look for

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

What it costs to run

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.

Your move

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Audi S8 from us first.

Buying the Audi S8

Does CarmaCars sell the Audi S8?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a Audi S8 before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
