Here is what I got in Phantom Black. They use the same V8 Twin Turbo in the S8, but they tune it (probably just the chip in the engine mgt box) to 550 hp.

Correction, the S8 engine is 512hp.

The S6 has a speed limiter that limits top speed to 155 mph. Audi says top speed would be 190 mph without the limiter.

That is an incredible car. What and where will it be during winter? spring hasn't official arrived here yet (4-8" of snow at Bachelor tonight) and I'm already trying to think of what to do with the 335i. Anyway, the wife's 13 year old CRV, which had 140K miles on it and had seen her thru thick n thin, went away yesterday and was replaced with this:

front

siderear

It's loaded with all the goodies for her including the sport pkgs. It has the same 300HP twin turbo my 335i has; the dealer said they could put a different chip in it to give her another 30-40 HP. I told em not on their life.
