Our Take:
  • Rarity and Color Combination: The 2003 Audi D2 S8 is a rarity in its own right, with only 300 units imported to the United States for that year. Even more special is this car's Ming Blue on Silver color combo, with only 100 produced in this setup. It's like finding a needle in a stack of needles, given the limited production and distinctiveness of the color scheme.
  • Historical Significance: This model marks the last year for the D2 chassis in the US, a chassis celebrated for offering a blend of performance and luxury when the executive sedan market was heating up. The D2 S8 gained fame partly due to its appearance in the chase sequence of the film Ronin, capturing the hearts of enthusiasts with its agility and understated aggression.
  • Performance and Maintenance: This S8 packs a punch with its 4.2-liter V8 engine, offering a balance of speed and refinement. The extensive service history is reassuring; recent maintenance like timing belts, suspension links, and wheel bearings means less worry about the common aging woes of a 20-year-old car. It's like having a classic that's been given a fresh lease on life.
  • Quirky Charm and Opportunities: With its fair share of quirks (ABS light, minor body blemishes, fading interior finishes), this car offers the hands-on enthusiast a chance to bring it back to top form. The suggestion of swapping in black sport seats adds a custom touch; imagine it as a restoration project with a sprinkle of personal flair.
