Don't you think Audi's A8 needs replacement...?
Recently facelifted (for the second time), it looks just like smaller A6. Everybody goes for the S-class these days. New 7-series due for next year, but what about new A8 ?

You'd have to ask why mess though, yes it's understated unlike the 7 Series and S-Class but it still looks smart outside and the interior is still better than both of the aforementioned competitors too. Personally I like the A8 as it is, but what would you like to see added to the A8? I'd like to see the next one being lighter and with better steering but otherwise it's fine as it is in my view.

Interior better than competitors ? You're joking... OK, better than the 7 Series, but S-Class ? Besides, nothing can match Merc's airmatic suspension, if you ask me. Air in A8 seems too firm, whereas in the 7 Series it's just not available.
