Purpose and logic are out. Feelings are in. So I say throw warning to the wind and purchase this closely depreciated 2008 Audi S6 over on Vehicles & Bids. You already know, the nice one with the V10.
With 4 days left on the public sale, bidding is simply as much as a little bit over $2,000, which is a terrifyingly low value for a automobile with a 5.2-liter V10 underneath the hood. I assume it’ll get costlier by the point the public sale is over, however we’re most likely nonetheless speaking used motorbike cash for a luxurious sedan that price greater than $80,000 when it was new. In as we speak’s {dollars}, that might be about $120,000.
The price of upkeep and repairs can be costly, identical to they might be on every other six-figure automobile with a ten-cylinder engine. Additionally, nowadays, 435 horsepower and 398 pound-feet of torque isn’t as a lot because it was once. Odds are, it’s a very dangerous thought, however then once more, so are gasoline station taquitos and somebody is consuming these, in any other case why do they maintain making them?
Issues like reliability and restore price are issues for future you. Let that future particular person fear about the place to get elements for a low-volume sedan with an unusual engine. At the moment you deserve a little bit deal with. A V10-powered deal with that you just positively gained’t remorse shopping for a minimum of till the very first thing breaks or wears out.
