My dad has had a succession of A8s as daily drivers over the last decade. Great cars but WAAAAAYYYYY outside of my operating budget. Have fun!

Nice. I'm the Marketing Director at an Audi Dealership. I'm going to the factory in Ingolstadt in 3 weeks for the new A3 sedan roll out! I sold my '12 S4 to get my 964 and now my daily is a B5 A4 1.8t manual quattro.

Almost forgot, my fiancée drives a '13 Q5!

Nice! Can't wait to see that A3, even though I'm thinking it will be very "Jetta" in quality. My next move will be a 14 A6 TDI, and I'll be able to use the DEPP because I'm a finance manager for a VW dealership here in TX.

From what I've heard, that's not the case with the A3. Apparently it is with the new CLA though!

The TDI's are awesome, we have customers getting over 700 miles per tank in A8's!

Yeah I figured it would be with the CLA. Hopefully not with the new 3 bc that is a great looking car!

Thats not too bad, but it is a 24 gallon tank... The A6 should do quite a bit better.

I should have mentioned that was combined. The range on the A6 is actually shorter than the A8!

I love them. Bad thing is with the air suspension lowering at speed, they're actually more enjoyable to drive above the speed limit!

And luckily North Central is pretty much all I have to see.

The range is im sure, but the actual mpg has to be better.
