Audi A8 L 4.2 quattro - $49,995
The V-8 A8, with its direct gas-injection 4.2-liter, gives up little to the W12, and so is the better choice. Steering is, indeed, great, with perfect feel and weight, but until this came along, we didn't know the old steering ratio needed replacing. We tried a Euro-only 4.2-liter TDI V-8 and can report that, like any modern German turbodiesel, it has stump-pulling torque and wonderfully tactile power. At idle, though, you feel a bit of the turbodiesel's rumble through the steering wheel.
