i actually like that

i cant help but feel it looks dated inside and maybe i need to review my budget.

The A8 will have insane running costs surely.

Dis86 · 12 Dec 2016 at 22:29

How about a 350z or do you really need those extra seats?

Dated inside? Perhaps. Better than a farmers interior as found in Imprezzas and Evo's though. Bit of luxury right there.

Although I'd be tempted more by either the V8 or W12 myself in an A8. Wont be too good on fuel mind you.

Import a Skyline 350 manual. Its a 350Z with 4 seats.

Bit over.

Nah. Argue them down. I'm sure they'll knock something off for the blue splodges too.

That's actually one of your better ideas - I quite like that

On the other hand, this must be a new record for a "spec me" thread to end up with a purchase in the shortest amount of time...
