Now You Can Own This Insanely Loud Audi S8
Now You Can Own This Insanely Loud Audi S8-October 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:13:45

Not long ago, Car Buying's Tavarish showed you how to make an I have no shame in admitting that I lack both the time and the skills to do that conversion. So if you are like me and want a bad-ass, ear-splitting, luxo-barge you can one.

As probably you already know this 2008 S8 comes with a 5.2 liter V10. What you may not know is this car has the Audi Exclusive Package making it only 1 of 11 cars that came to the US. In addition to the Valcona red leather, Bang & Olfusen stereo, and legendary AWD, the car has some other "tasteful mods" such as: various powder coating , protective clear bra all around, Valentine 1 + Laser interceptors, and the famous Meisterschaft valve controlled exhaust that you can switch between loud & quiet.

In case you need a reminder of what it will sound like...crank up the volume, and hide your children -

Now all this fury is not going to come cheap, the current bid on this car is $27,000 and it has a buy-it-now price of $50,000. But there is less than a day left and no reserve so this could be your chance to fulfill your Lambo V10 fantasies but still be able to carry your family around.

I always thought the Audi S8 was an under appreciated large sedan. You don't see many of them compared to the S-class or the 7-series. Which is a shame, because they are quite handsome and are really great sleepers. This example is not a great sleeper because you will hear it coming from several miles away. But I guarantee that you will shock onlookers when you roll up in a stately, four-ringed, four-door rather than some obnoxious "look at me!" exotic.

Getting Drunk Could Save Your Life From Automotive Fluid Poisoning
If, for whatever reason, you just sucked down a quart of DOT 3 brake fluid, windshield washer fluid or antifreeze, get your butt to the hospital right away. But if you can’t get to the hospital quickly, it may be time to break out the booze. We’ve probably all heard...

These Mad Geniuses Are Doing A Car Build Show You Will Actually Want to Watch
Do ? Are they too heavy on drama without enough actual building for you? Do you find yourself more interested the actual fabrication than the fabricated drama between mechanics or cast members? Do you wonder how Richard Rawlings gets any work done with all those rings? Well, two Brits are...

Here's What The Inside Of A Neglected World War II Jeep Engine Looks Like
I just yanked the engine out of my 1948 Willys CJ-2A; here’s a look at the innards of that old cast iron hulk called the “Go Devil” that powered America’s troops through World War II. The Go Devil engine is a 134-cubic inch, cast-iron flathead inline four found in World...

Welcome To My Favorite Time-Wasting Car Website, ScuderiaCarParts.com
Like you, I often harbor idle dreams of one day owning a Ferrari. For reasons obvious to anyone who has seen the state of my apartment, this is never going to happen. Still, I like to dream, and one website supports my fantasies: . The fun thing about ScuderiaCarParts.com is...

This Guy's Car Fetish Is So Normal It's Actually Pretty Weird
Like so many of us, Tyson Hugie dreamed of one day owning a very specific car collection. Classic 4x4s? European sports cars? Nah, man—early 90’s Acuras. It doesn’t sound too intrinsically exciting, but looking at this fleet. I think he might actually be on to something here. Hugie reached out...

Here's How Much It Really Costs To Own A 20-Year-Old BMW M3
Everyone dreams of buying that childhood dream car for cheap on Craigslist through the magical power of depreciation. But as we’ve seen time and time again, purchase price is only one small part of the equation. One of my favorite car-related video series this year has been fromCarThrottle, wherehost Alex...
