The first gen Q45 didn't sell that poor in the US, there were a decent amount of these on the road back in the days. But there are barely any left, and whatever ones that are left are usually in horrible shape.

And no wonder the A8 of that period didn't sell well. It's downright fugly.

With that being said, Audi did a complete 180 degree turnaround, and their current lineup is the most gorgeous out of all, and their A8 is stunning, while Lexus LS and BMW 7 series are just blah, and MB S class is downright tacky.

I was watching Motorweek this weekend and they were running a ten minute special on the diesel regulations of semi-trucks going in and out of a shipyard

That is by far the worst automotive television show on TV
