It's a great day for viscounts and CEOs, high-priced courtesans, and the drivers who must rush them all from Brussles to the Cote d'Azur before their cocaine supplier is deposed by Interpol. Audi announced its new, V10-powered S8 would hit the market in mid-2006, at a European price 97,600 Euros ($116,600). We've long been waiting for the Gallardo's engine (albiet detuned) to show up in Audi's flagship, so I guess it makes it a good day for us as well. Vivent la bonne vie!
