The redesigned Audi flagship sedan now flows with the graceful curve of the smaller A6 and A4 sedans, and that transforms it from the clunky-looking model in the lineup to the brand's lust object.
A8 L's is a bit aloof, cold; almost a repudiation of the stunning emotional response it provokes upon viewing.
The A8 L is like those friends and lovers who excite you, do most everything right, have good taste, are well-mannered with a hint of naughtiness — and who give you the impression, ever so politely, that you're interrupting something whenever you want to engage.

My tester, the A8 L, was the stretched version of the "base" A8, equipped with the "little engine": a 4.2 liter DOHC aluminum 90-degree 4.2 V8 (featuring 5 valves per cylinder and variable intake valve timing) that puts out 335 horses @ 6500 rpm and 317 lb-ft of torque @ 3500.

 2005 Audi A8 Road Test
The A8 also encourages the use of some Audi technology that is standard on all models but probably doesn’t get as much of a workout in the longer car.
When I was cruising along in an A8 L, I never had the need, or even the urge, to bump the slick-shifting six-speed automatic transmission into sport or manual mode and I never saw a reason to adjust the adaptive air suspension from its softest, most luxurious ride setting to its stiffest, most roll-resistant setting.
But, while the A8 and A8 L are both beautiful cars, I’ll give my admittedly subjective vote to the A8 simply because I think its shorter rear doors blend better into the car’s overall design.
