2006 Audi A8 L Quattro
HIGHLIGHTS:
• Two owners, squeaky-clean Carfax!
• Great original condition!
• Black paint over Amaretto brown leather interior
• Long-wheelbase model with generous rear legroom
• So many modern features! Heated & ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, keyless entry & start, power seats, rear sunshades, dual-zone climate control, built-in rear vanity mirrors, and more!
• Power windows, power steering, power four-wheel disc brakes!
• 4.2 L V-8 with Quattro AWD, full-size spare
BODY OVERVIEW:
This A8 L combines executive presence with stealth. The black paint has great depth, and the car’s proportions and styling are very elegant. This car has aged beautifully! The long-wheelbase chassis gives it graceful curb appeal, while the timeless styling would look great in any driveway. Body imperfections are at a minimum, and this car truly looks more like a 75,000 mile car than 137,000.
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
The original black paint is impressive for its age, with a classy shine and highlights the German luxury styling beautifully. Expect the usual battle scars found on black cars—light rock chips, scratches, and swirl marks from washes over the years. Make no mistake–this does not detract from the presence of this modern classic!
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW:
Inside, the Amaretto brown leather complements the black exterior with warmth. Instead of the sterility and minimalism brought by a black interior, you get a warm welcome that feels like home! The seats, trim, and surfaces are all in excellent original condition, showing only gentle signs of use consistent with ownership and care. Looking at the interior condition, it is truly hard to believe this car has the mileage it does. Rear occupants will appreciate the generous space, plus the factory rear sunshades and heated rear seats make it more than just a driver’s car. Thanks to rear vanity mirrors, you can even do your makeup in the back seat, if you want to! The cherry on top is the factory flip-out stereo, that hides beautifully behind a wood trim door when off.
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW:
Under the hood, Audi’s 4.2 L V-8 produces roughly 335 hp and 317 lb-ft of torque. It is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission and full-time Quattro AWD, making for a spirited and enjoyable driving experience, even in a car this size. The car drives smoothly, accelerates confidently (0-60 in about 6.3 seconds) and handles all-weather conditions with composure. All tested functions work as intended, from windows to climate. The full-size spare adds peace of mind. This Audi is truly turn-key and ready to drive!
WHAT YOU’LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR:
• A feature list that rivals many modern luxury sedans
• Comfortable, quiet, and capable in all drive conditions
• Long-wheelbase layout adds rear comfort uncommon in many sedans
• A rare “executive sedan” at a fractional cost versus comparable modern vehicles
WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR:
• Black paint shows imperfections easily
• It feels more modern than it is, but its important to keep in mind that this Audi will be 20 in 2026.
DOES IT NEED ANYTHING?
• The power trunk lid needs help closing sometimes
• A gentle paint correction detail may be desired to help bring the finish back to life
WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR?
This A8 L is ideal for the driver who wants near-luxury features of a modern flagship but appreciates analog refinement and value. It’s well suited for someone who values comfort, performance, and all-weather capability without paying full showroom prices for a contemporary model. If you want to be driven in style or drive in executive-class comfort while keeping entry costs sane, this is the Audi for you!
