Audi D4 A8
The D4 Audi A8 is a tech-forward luxury sedan known for its aluminum chassis and potent engine options, including the S8's twin-turbo V8 and the rare W12. It currently represents an excellent performance value on the secondary market.
Audi D4 A8 sold for a median of $17,480 over the last 12 months, based on 32 auction sales; the middle half sold between $11,875 and $25,188. 638 currently for sale.
The D4 generation Audi A8, sold from 2011 to 2017 in North America, continued its predecessor's legacy with an advanced aluminum space frame (ASF) chassis. This construction kept it lighter than its primary rivals. Powertrain options were plentiful, ranging from a supercharged 3.0L V6 and a 4.2L V8 in early cars to the widely adopted twin-turbo 4.0T V8. At the top of the range sat the exclusive 6.3L W12 and the high-performance S8, which used a 520-horsepower version of the 4.0T V8.
Today, the D4 A8 occupies a sweet spot in the market, offering immense luxury and performance for a fraction of its original cost. The average transaction price of just over $25,000 highlights this value. Collectors and enthusiasts gravitate towards the potent S8, S8 Plus, and the rare W12 models for their unique engineering and Autobahn-storming capabilities. While maintenance can be costly, it's hard to find a better performance-luxury bargain.
Buying Tips
Check the air suspension for leaks or failures. Watch for a sagging corner after the car has been parked or listen for an overworked compressor.
On 4.0T V8 models, verify that the turbocharger oil screen has been replaced with the updated part to prevent oil starvation and turbo failure.
Listen for any rattling noises from the engine on a cold start, as this can signal failing timing chain tensioners, an expensive repair.
Test all functions of the MMI infotainment system, including the screen's pop-up mechanism, which is a known point of failure.
Inspect coolant levels and service history for water pump or thermostat replacement, as these are common issues, particularly on the 3.0T V6.
Based on 91 sales, prices range from $1,185 for project-condition examples to $108,393 for top-spec S8 models.
