The 2003 Audi S8 for buyers
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2003 Audi S8 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. This page helps you judge the 2003 Audi S8 before you buy one anywhere.
Before you sign for the S8
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. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
Specs, explained
Power: the 4.2L 8-cylinder; drive: all-wheel drive. 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.
It is rated at 14.7 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 44 litres. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $25.73, and a 300 km weekend about $77.19. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$5,150 a year for 15,000 miles.
Space and size
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. Luggage space is rated at 510 litres: a family's bags for a long weekend.
Who it is for
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Rent it for a week first
If the S8 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Running costs
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $257.30 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$5,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Narrowing it down
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. 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.
